Overall Customer Satisfaction
Customers consistently praised the collision department for delivering high-quality repairs, with many noting their vehicles looked as good as new or even better than before. The team received strong recognition for proactive communication, including regular twice-weekly updates that kept customers informed throughout the repair process. Timeliness was frequently highlighted, with several repairs completed ahead of schedule. Customers also appreciated the extra touches such as complimentary vehicle cleaning, loaner cars, and seamless insurance coordination. A few customers noted areas for improvement, including inconsistent communication, unexpected delays without adequate updates, and isolated instances where vehicles were not fully repaired upon pickup - all of which were directly raised in customer comments.

My car has been there for 7 weeks, it is still not done, it was a very minor fender bender. Im confused why I keep getting requests about how you did, when you have not completed the work.

every single person who is in my life right now knows to not bring their cars here because they witnessed firsthand how incredibly awful it was for me!

I had my car taken to Gene Butman Ford after an accident, and while everyone I interacted with was kind and polite, the overall experience was incredibly disorganized. It took almost two months to get my car back, and I was actually called twice and told that my car was ready when it was not. When I finally was able to pick it up, there was still a piece of plastic hanging from the car, so I had to bring it back again to have it addressed. I appreciate that the staff was friendly and kind throughout the process, but the lack of communication, misinformation, and the extremely long turnaround time made the experience very frustrating. I understand that repairs after an accident can take time, but the repeated incorrect updates and the condition of the car when I was told it was ready were disappointing. Unfortunately, the kindness of the staff wasn’t enough to make up for how disorganized the overall process was.
