Special thanks to Aaron. The whole team is wonderful and deeply concerned to resolve each and every issue with your car. I brought in my AMG 2025 car after it was hit in the rear and I am honestly very happy with the work they have done. Again, I would like to Thanks Aaron (office manager) for taking excellent care of my car.

The person who hit me had bad insurance. I couldn't get an estimate from anyone. Juan estimated for self pay. I was fixing it either way. I was very grateful to get an idea of out of pocket cost. Turned out it was a lyft car covered under state farm. No out of pocket .

There was absolutely no transparency in the balance I owed once my repair was completed. I was referred to you after another repair shop wanted me to pay my deductible upfront to order the part needed for repair. I contacted my insurance and they assured me this was improper procedure. I explained to them I have never paid a deductible in any auto repair that I needed thus Your shop was referred. I also explained this to Selena (I believe that's her name) at your shop. I explained that I was looking for a local shop. She was extremely nice and empathic with my concerns. Not once did she mention, I would be responsible for an out of pocket deductible. When the front desk clerk, (with the very slight passive aggressive tone) called to inform me that my car was ready for pickup, she did not inform me there was a balance. I actually called back to ask if my oil change had been performed since she did not mention it. Neither time did she indicate I had a balance due at time of pickup. No transparency in the amount owed. I asked for an oil change. There was partial transparency in that request. I would have to pay out of pocket. But another failure in explaining cash vs credit. Imagine my surprise when I arrive to pick up my vehicle (and after Enterprise left) that I owe $450+ and if I use a credit card, there is a whopping fee! Now I'm stranded. Can't go get cash. Can't even use a different credit card. And all because NOBODY BOTHERED TO TELL ME I HAD A BALANCE PRIOR TO MY ARRIVAL. IMO, this was intentional. Had it been explained to me in the very beginning that I would have an out of pocket expense for my repair , I would have taken my auto to a different shop. I regret now that I didn't. It cost me more to stay locally. In the event, I ever need a car repair, it will not be completed here. I don't even know if you did a good job because I can't get past the financial deception. This was no better than a bait and switch. The biggest problem I have is, Selena, and I talked about this very thing when I brought my car in for repair. Had she been upfront with me, I would not have selected your shop. Please, do not respond to me, with I'm sorry you had that experience. I had this experience because you caused this experience.

I was highly impressed with my contact: Salina. She has a great disposition and personality. As for the vehicle repairs, I am satisfied. Moreover, I was highly pleased to find that my vehicle was returned with an interior detail job. I was not expecting that. I've been a customer of Kallemeyn Collision for the past seven years but I think the company may have switched owners / management. I highly recommend them for your vehicle needs. Note: Fr. Ralph was not able to take care of his vehicle in person due to his disability / condition. Everything was taken care of by: Deacon Gary Michael.
