"I cannot recommend Joe Hudson’s Collision Center enough. I went in for what I thought would be a costly repair for several scratches on my passenger side. Instead of overcharging me or making me schedule a long appointment, they buffed them out for free while I waited.
The staff was professional, the shop was clean, and their 'customer-first' attitude is second to none. It’s clear they care more about helping people than just padding the bill. 5 stars!"
