I would highly recommend Kern Auto Body Repair. The car repair was meticulous, the follow ups on the progress were prompt, and despite the drive from Morgantown, West Virginia to pick up the car, picking up our car was a smooth process! My family and I are satisfied!

I’m beyond satisfied with the work that was done on my JEEP GC. Gage is absolutely phenomenal! He called me regularly with updates and kept his word on when the repairs were going to be completed. I couldn't be more happier with my experience at Kern Auto Body.

Customer Service

I would. Gage’s response when I called the day after Christmas could not have been better. He took my car back, he supplied me with a loaner, and he found the problem and fixed it right away. My one suggestion to the shop is they make certain their techs are prepared to service hybrids. I’m not certain why that separate cooling system was drained, since I understand it is completely separate from the cooling system that was being serviced. I would guess there was still some residual coolant in the line, so the car appeared to run normally for a few miles before the sensors reported imminent damage to the vehicle, and for the driver to pull over in a safe place and stop driving the car because it was about to fail. Even a quick visual inspection under the hood, an alert examiner would’ve noticed a fluid reservoir that was noticeably empty. A less resourceful driver might well have pulled off the road and called a tow truck, spoiling the holiday. As it was, I drove the car about 45 miles in that condition, slowly, and only time will tell whether any damage was inflicted on the batteries. Are there vehicle appropriate checklists for the techs to use as they close out a repair?

Repair Quality

The work appears to be very well done, and my car looks great. There was a little hiccup in that the coolant for the hybrid system was drained and not refilled, so the car reported it was undrivable on Christmas day halfway to my destination

Customer Service

The oversight was addressed immediately and completely, and I personally have no complaint. Everyone was absolutely lovely.

Likely to Recommend

That would be the only place I would take mine

Best team of individuals I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Not only did they take the vehicle and repair it within a couple days. They handled the insurance company and rental themselves.
