I just picked up my Challenger from this place. I had a hit and run a few weeks ago and they hit my rear bumper. Im speechless with the customer service of Gabriela and Alex. Wonderful communication, keeping us in touch with the process of the car during the week. And the car turned out great! I totally recommend this place hundred percent! I had a bad experience a few years ago with caliber collision and I am glad we found this place!

Called like a dozen places, literally, looking for a body shop to put my recently purchased pre-owned vehicle on a lift to give me a frame & body inspection since there was suspicion of structural / frame and other damage. Luckily I finally called California Auto Body & Frame and spoke with Alex Torres who I felt was straight forward, accommodating and very professional on the phone. He was able to schedule me within a few days & I just picked my car up from them a few hours ago.

He did exactly what he said he was going to do, provided a ride for me home when I dropped my car off, and even walked me out to my car after to see me off upon leaving. I always appreciate great customer service and personable real people who follow through and provide quality work and this place covered it all. Alex gave me a great organized itemization of work that needed to be done with pricing (both hard copy & electronic) and a frame certificate in a very timely & professional manner so I can present it to the dealership that sold me the car. I definitely recommend this business.

Everyone at this location was super nice and friendly. My husband was in an accident that required body work and was deployed when the work needed to be done. Everyone I had contact with was super helpful and explained everything I needed to do. They also provided me a ride home the day I dropped off the car which was so helpful. Glad to have gotten such a good experience out of a tough situation!

Writing this on behalf of my mother; I came here for an estimate today and as soon as I went in, I was greeted with a smile. The customer service there is amazing! Everyone there is helpful, friendly and they got straight to the point! My experience was very pleasant and I would recommend this place to anyone! I would definitely go back if I needed to. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would!
