Customers say
Overall Customer Satisfaction
Customers consistently praise the shop for outstanding communication, with many highlighting daily text and photo updates that kept them informed throughout the repair process. The quality of repairs is frequently described as excellent, with vehicles returned looking like new or better than expected. Timeliness is a strong theme, as numerous customers noted their vehicles were completed ahead of schedule. The complimentary interior and exterior detailing upon pickup is repeatedly called out as a delightful, above-and-beyond touch. A small number of customers noted areas for improvement, including occasional delays without proactive notification, minor finish imperfections, and isolated front-desk greeting experiences, all drawn directly from customer comments.

Professional and very nice staff!! Car detailing inside car and repair of scratch on bumper excellent!!

My Experience

In addition to the outstanding quality of work, throughout the repair process I was kept updated via both phone calls and text messages. Furthermore, upon receiving my vehicle I noticed some damage to the vehicle that was not there when brought to the shop. Without hesitation, I was informed that they would make it a priority to fix the damage. I was even provided with a rental car at no cost to me. My only suggestion is that prior to customers picking up their vehicles I’d take the time to look over both the exterior and interior of the vehicles and also detail them. This used to be done in past 25-30 years that I have brought my vehicles to Turnpike Motors for any necessary repairs.
