Body work was excellent. However, the mechanics lost the remote and refused to take responsibility.

Great job but took a long time to get parts. I know Husteds had no responsibility for the delay. Good communication too on status. Thanks!

Just disappointed that you could not save exhaust hose we brought to reduce exhaust noise while waiting for catalytic converter part to arrive. My son did asked for it when he brought in truck.

I need to take it back to get the front left turn signal fixed.

Repair Quality

Still need to come in to get my front lightbulb fixed. This should have been identified before I picked up my car given the front bumper was the thing that was fixed.

Could provide more updates on when it would be ready

My Experience

The lower air inflow that they put on doesn’t seem to fit properly if they take care of it I’ll be 100% satisfied because the dent work they did came out very well

The air inlet baffle doesn’t seem to fit quite right

Customer Service

My Experience

They had my car for over three weeks and didn’t fix anything. They gave me my car back and it was still damaged and they didn’t even put things back together. This shop is a joke.

Likely to Recommend

I’d recommend pushing your car off a cliff before coming to this auto body shop.

Repair Quality

They still haven’t repaired my car. I picked my car up and the battery was dead because they left my headlights on. I had tire pressure warnings because my tires had been filled 20PSI higher than their rating.
