The overall experience with CarStar Chilton Auto Body in Hayward was excellent, from beginning to end. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. I plan on going back for any paint or body work that I may need in the future. Highly recommended !!!

First of all this is to identify the incompetence at this establishment. Chose this body shop as it was close to my residence. Employee JUSTIN IS A CUSTOMER SERVICE DEAD BEAT. Went to pick up my car to find paint overspray cover my ENTIRE vehicle. So had to come back for a third time. Picked up again to find out that there is paint overspray INSIDE my car. Went for a forth time. DID they rid of it?? No! So had to come back a 5th time to find out the manager is in a meeting. So NOBODY else was aware of the guy showing up that had paint overspray inside & outside of his vehicle. Brilliant. So i was super upset about having to come back for a 6th time. NOPE! Absolute INCOMPETENCE! So because i didnt have a Mercedes Benz or a Porche, my car gets neglected enough to make a mistake of that magnitude???!! I called the manager, George, who said, “yeh come on in we will take care of it.’ Yeh but how many time is one going to have to return to get their car back the same way it was minus the obvious damages that were repaired via insurance claim. So in conclusion, DO NOT CHOOSE CARSTAR AUTO!! The level of incompetence is high enough to share on this survey

You could not pay me to recommend them and I will be posting on social media about the awful service received.

There are plugs that are missing from the bumper they repaired.

Customer Service

Their customer service is horrible they act like they are doing you the favor of repairing your car. They were inept at servicing my vehicle and outside of the fact that they would have charged me a fee to take my car for repair elsewhere I would have.

My Experience

They made sure that everything was completed and nothing was missed.

Sommer was amazing at first finding me since there was a glitch when the insurance had my car dropped off and then keeping me updated in the process

To be honest this is the only thing I was happy about.

Customer Service

The body work on the car was good. It's that everything else was not. What it comes down to is there was no communication. To start off it seemed like everything was gonna go well when I took my car in to get the new estimate done. However from that point it took about a week and a 1/2 to get a reply on when I was going to be able to bring my car in. I decided to call because I had not heard anything back from The Body Shop. When I called I was told that The Body Shop did contact me but there was no answer. I asked what phone number they were using, turns out, they had a wrong number. Which baffled me, because you guys (CSAA) sent all my information to them. Apparently they did not have the correct information. I got busy, but I finally found time to bring the car in. It was on the afternoon of Wednesday 3/16. They took the car and had it done on Friday 3/18. I was told the car would be ready in the afternoon. I work in the city, I sent my fiance to pay the bill and get my key. The shop told us to leave the rental car in their garage port and to put the key in their mailbox. That's exactly what I was going to do, however I called the rental agency because they asked me to call them when I was returning the car. They told me I needed to return the car because there was no verification that I was dropping the car off at the auto body shop and that they were going to charge me for the next couple of days. So I rushed to get the car to them before they closed at 6 o'clock. As I arrive I was greeted by the rudest agent Hertz has ever produced. I returned the car and asked the gentleman now that I had returned the car, how am I supposed to get to mine? He snarly replied, "I can give you a ride, but I don't have to." I was stranded three miles from my car on a cold rainy day. In conclusion, I was not happy with the service all around and the communication between all the parties.

My Experience

My truck needed some minor adjustments that Carstar took care of immediately. Thank you.
