Great job with the replacement of the rear bumper, but I noticed there's a smear of wax I think on my passenger side door. It may just need to be buffed out. I also wished you were open , at least a half a day on Saturdays as I had to take off work to drop off my car and to pick up . Just a suggestion for some of us that works during the week.

The work appears to have been done well as expected. But the communication was non existent during the process. I had to reach out for updates and delivery confirmation. In the past the communication has been much better

My BMW service advisor. Art recommended you guys to me about five years ago. I’ve been using you guys. This is the fourth time I wouldn’t go anywhere else to get my BMW or my Chevy Silverado fixed. You guys are by far the best quality of work not to mention your staff is phenomenal. They are so helpful from the girls inside the office to the guys in the field. You all are number one in my eyes thank you so much for your quality service.

I think the process overall took too long and now i have to return the vehicle to address the issues that they were returned wtih
Repair Quality - 3.5/5.0 -
Basically, they forgot to paint the door handle. Also, the car was returned with several "pollen" spots according to Melanie. There were at least 12 pollen spots. However, they did fix a small nick that was NOT part of the job so that was very nice of them to do that.

Melanie is great. But the time it took to just get approval from my insurance was too long. Someone dropped the ball and it sat in the shop for a month before it received insurance approval. Thearle's shouldve notified me of this situation. was kind of disappointing because we lost a lot of time.

Didn't care for having to come back and make an appointment for an estimate. But other than that they do the best work of any shop I have ever seen. There's nothing I could point out or thought it could of been done a little better. Best office staff, estimator, Body guys, painters down to the person that cleans the truck when its all done.!!!!!!
