The communication process, including regular text and email updates, is highly valued, keeping customers informed throughout the repair journey. Many customers highlight the friendly, professional, and welcoming front desk staff. Timeliness is a recurring strength, with numerous vehicles completed ahead of schedule. Customers also appreciate the complimentary interior and exterior detailing upon pickup. A few customers noted minor improvement areas such as occasional delays, a loose windshield mold, misaligned bed cover, and difficulty scheduling a follow-up for epoxy residue left on a steering wheel - all raised directly by customers themselves.

They did beautiful work. They also cleaned the interior and I need to know the secret on how they managed to get to all weather mats looking almost new again. They followed up to make sure everything was 100% satisfactory!

My Experience

I had an outstanding experience with Rays Automotive Inc.! They were recommended by my insurance company, and I'm so glad I chose them. From the moment I walked in, the customer service was exceptional. Izzy at the front desk was absolutely amazing! Her morning energy is contagious, and she greeted everyone with a smile that could brighten anyone's day. She was courteous, funny, helpful, and made the entire process easy and stress-free. It's rare to come across someone who genuinely enjoys helping people, and it really shows. The collision repair team did an amazing job on my vehicle. When I picked it up, it looked brand new! They even had it washed, which was a great finishing touch. I also let them know I needed my car back before an upcoming vacation, and they went above and beyond to make sure it was completed on time. That level of customer service meant a lot to me. Thank you, Izzy, and the entire team at Rays Automotive Inc. for your professionalism, outstanding workmanship, and exceptional customer service. If you're looking for a collision repair shop that truly cares about its customers, I highly recommend Rays Automotive Inc. They've definitely earned my 5-star review!
