I obtained an estimate for body work from this shop on 10/2/25. The cost of the parts was based on CCC Data dated 10/1/25. I was advised not to drop off the vehicle before all the parts had been delivered to them due to uncertainty of parts deliveries. On 10/10, I received a phone call stating they were ready for me to drop off my car. We were traveling so I could not take the car to the shop until 10/20, which I did. On 10/23/25, the shop called to advise that a previously ordered part involved in the repair had a price increase equal to 79.6% (from $930 to $1,670). I was led to believe based on their comments that the part had arrived in the shop prior to being contacted for original drop off, thus my assumption they had the parts in hand on or before 10/10.
The revised price was based on their CCC pricing data with a date of 10/17, per a revised bill I received. I firmly believe the part was delivered to the shop on or before 10/10 but I am being charged based on increased pricing of the CCC Data Base dated 10/17. I have asked for an explanation for the increase but have not had the courtesy of a reply from the General Manager. If I could get a response from the shop, I would ask to see the actual invoice to clarify when the part was purchased. But so far, they have not responded in any way to an email or two phone messages. Very disappointing to say the least.

I recommend this business highly due to the speed of completion, the updates, the price, and the quality of workmanship. I did not like being rear-ended by a driver to make this repair necessary, but I did like the treatment I got to rectify this.

When I got into an unfortunate accident with my truck, I was happy to find this body shop conveniently located near where I work. I was also happy that they were able to get me scheduled in, in a reasonable amount of time. They handled everything with the other party’s insurance, and sent me regular updates about my repairs. And my truck looks as good as new….definitely happy to recommend!
