Our repair job was great, just not timely. The other party's repair took a longer time than promised. They were without their vehicle for an extra week.

They finished the job before the time frame they told me. All of the personnel was kind, curtiouse and extremely helpful. Thank you. I will most likely use them in future if necessary.

They took my car before they had all the parts, and extended the time frame of expected completion. I didn’t appreciate that but we were able to compromise and my car was complete within the expected timeframe!

The work was good, problems with administration.

The repair was done very well. I had an issue with the completion date getting pushed back by a week 2 different times with not much, if any, warning. I was getting text messages periodically that everything was on schedule, then I got a call about 2 days before the scheduled completion date that it would be another week. I think that the shop knew earlier that there was going to be a delay and should have told me earlier. Then on the new completion date after not hearing anything, I called to see when I could pick up my car. They said it wasn’t done and would be another 9 days. Basically the same thing again, and I wasn’t happy. I talked to the manager, Jerry, who was very helpful and hurried the repair along. He also offered a lower cost rental car from Tom Ahl since I was paying for my rental out of pocket. After Jerry got involved, the car was done about 4 days earlier than the last date they gave me. In that last week or so, the text updates I was receiving did not match what I was told verbally. Overall, the substantial delays without warning are the cause of any dissatisfaction. I thank Jerry for his help.

My Experience

There are still a few scratches that aren’t buffed out, the seam isn’t completely on between my front and back door, also my alignment is off still.

The work needed to repair my vehicle was done as promised and I would recommend that

Repair Quality

All damages caused by the wreck had been wonderfully repaired. Although I noticed 3 new deep scratches on the rear quads of my vehicle that had to have happened while in Tom Ahl body shops care. I also found a 8x10 photo of someone’s child in my back seat glued to popsicle stick which was absolutely not there when I brought the vehicle in for services. I brought the vehicle in with a full tank of gas and got it back nearly empty. It gave me an unsettling feeling that someone has used my car for reasons other than body shop services. Again the repairs were done very well. I just wish I didn’t have these new and very noticeable scratches on my vehicle and I wonder why this child’s photo had been found in my car minutes after picking it up. The vehicle was rear ended and left it looking crushed like a soda can and I got it back looking almost as good as new which I am very thankful for that.
