I was extremely upset when I hit a steel girder mailbox post when avoiding a wreck. I really like the car and was worried about anyone working on it, that it wouldnt be right. I knew that due to the pandemic it would take longer than normal to repair. I was kept informed along the way about the progress and what parts they were waiting to arrive. Thankfully the amazing team at Enterprise helped me out with the extended rental. The inspection revealed additional damage to which I didnt know, even multiple nails in a tire from the off-road adventure, which got replaced. Im extremely picky and after four attempts to get it just right, I was satisfied. Tina and Adrian did an awesome job dealing with me being picky and a little irritated at times. Bottom line is my car was fixed and Im happy and it looks great. Thats what you want in a body shop, and please have patience if you are having a repair done, the supply chain is fubar currently.Which side had the work?

Had to change my review. We were in a small fender bender and it was basically a brand new car had 20k on it. They totalled it. Tina was nice and helpful... but I referred my father there shortly after our visit and oh man do I feel bad for recommending them to him.His car was hit while parked at his house is was a very small amount of damage. Well he dropped it off at k&m and the car was hit in parking lot. Naturally there cameras mysteriously didnt work that day! Needless to say his insurance is having to pay for damage done on their property, and to make matters worse its been 3 months and not done! Insurance wont pay for rental so hes putting miles on my car for weeks now! Thanks k&m! Ill never go there or refer you again!

After my accident, everywhere was booked until after October. Tina managed to find a space to squeeze my car in so I wouldnt have to drive around with my five year old in a potentially dangerous vehicle.They went over and beyond, explaining how the process would go with my insurance and how to make sure my insurance treated me fairly.Though my car ended up as a total, the whole process took less than four days and was made more comfortable by their team.Would 100% recommend.

I got my Ford F-150 repaired. They did great work at a fair price and in a timely fashion. Shout out to TinaWalling who provided excellent customer service. She kept me informed of the progress off my repairs.

I am a returning customer (unfortunately). The work these guys do is immaculate. Their repairs are every bit as good as when the car was new from the factory. Factory certification comes with a cost, but in this case it is worth every penny. I will continue to be a loyal customer!

K and M worked on our vehicle after an accident recently. They were very professional and thorough and kept us informed of their progress. Tina was especially helpful with all of the paperwork and updates involved in a vehicle repair. She is a great example of what customer service should be. I hope we never need their services again but if we ever do we wont hesitate to give K and M a call.

K and M is great! From the first phone call to checking in, Tina made is an absolute pleasure. Good customer service is hard to find, but you’ll still find it here. They are one of the few shops that can work on Teslas and so far I’m very happy with everything!

K&M did a fantastic job with our Tesla Model 3. They gave us realistic timelines and Tina communicated well regarding the status of our parts deliveries and repairs. Adrian took great care of our car as well.Honestly the car looks and drives better than it did new. Tesla isnt quite known for their build quality or factory consistency - we never had major issues but I think the car is in better condition than when I dropped it off!

We recently went to get our car fixed at K&M Collision. Thanks to Tina for helping us get get our car done before the weekend of July 4. She told us it would be done in 3 weeks, but we got it back within 2 weeks. I recommend taking your car there. The job they did to our car was worth the wait.

Review №15

I am the happy owner of a Tesla model S which was involved in a minor, very minor, side-swipe. Since this is a shout-out for K&M, I will not go off on any rants about how long Tesla takes to send out parts, and how seemingly lousy they pack the parts that they do send out. Warning to Tesla owners...body work on Teslas is difficult and not like any of the dozen or so cars I have owned. Minor issues to the rear sides of the car can be MAJOR work, and the parts take a long time from Tesla.Okay, this is about K&M... I will first say that they did a fantastic repair job, on what turned out to be extensive work. The paint was perfectly matched, and the car is like new. The customer liaisons (in my case Adrian and Tina) kept me updated on a weekly or bi-weekly basis for the entirety of the job. When I noticed a small programming/calibration problem after I accepted the car and drove it 100 miles back to my house, K&M came with a flatbed truck, delivered me a loaner car, and took my car back to Hickory at no cost to me.Bottom line is that the customer service is every bit as good as the quality of the work they perform, and the facility is basically best described as a hospital OR with respect to cleanliness and orderliness. As a small business owner myself, I wish my workplace was as tip top perfect as this body shop. No offense to the owner, but he/she is clearly OCD, but in this case it is a great benefit to the customer. If I had another accident in any of my vehicles, I would return to K&M for the repairs. if I have another accident in my Tesla (and to all Tesla owners within 300 miles of Hickory), trust me...BRING YOUR CAR TO K&M for any body work.

Took my audi in for hood and windshield damage. When Tina did a walk around the car she notice every problem some I did not know about. The first thing she notice is the paint chipping on the grill. Without share details I told her that I was replacing it down the road. These people are so particular they fixed everything including most of the things I didnt initially notice, and tried to get me a new grill. Thats when I talked to Kyle about what I wanted to do to the front end and he took the liberty to order the grill I wanted and the euro tag with it. I really appreciate these people because they are just as particular as I am. Yea it took 8 weeks to get my car back but most of it was out of their hands plus you cant rush perfection.

K& M is AWESOME! Kyle the service manager and Tina were both so informative and was willing to answer any of my questions. This was my brand new car and my very 1st wreck. I had no idea what to do.The line of communication that both of them had was amazing. They kept me up to date and explained what the next steps were. They had my safety in mind most of all. Per insurance this was little damage! Of course!K & M explained the amount of structural damage my car had and told me it was not safe to drive.Thankful for this place. Even though my car is totaled. I will definitely take future cars to K&M.Thank you Kyle and Tina Walling Wonderful customer service.

They will fix your car but it will cost triple what it should. Had them fix my Tesla model Y for a deer hit that damaged the front bumper, hood, and left fender. The damage should have cost around 8,000 from what I have seen online for similar damage, but they charged 24,000 and held onto my car for 2 months. Would strongly recommend you go somewhere else.

So my family has known K&M collision for years, we’ve had a total of 3 cars go to them so far. They by far are the best quality around, and according to an adjuster for the insurance company, K&M are the 5th in the nation. My truck a 2018 F150 Platinum looked better after they took it in, than the day I drove it off the lot.This company is a true leader in customer service, not only will they fight for you but they will bend over backwards to help you out. There is a solid reason that I will continue to take vehicles to them.They’re certified in everything.

An exceptional experience from beginning to end! Tina did an incredible job keeping me informed as to the progress of my repair. Jeff, the delivery driver was kind, courteous and kept me up to date as to the time he would arrive. Adrian did a great job with the initial contact with the collision center. I HIGHLY recommend this wonderful business!

I dealt with Tina Walling, and holy cow did she know her stuff. She was very helpful and answered every question I had and some that I didn’t even know I needed to ask. She’s really on top of it. Very professional. My car was ruled a total loss, which I was happy about because I was wanting to buy a truck! Now on to bigger and better things! Thank you Tina and K&M team for taking great car of me and giving me amazing service!

Its very rare nowadays when you find someone at a company who cares as much about your situation as a close friend or family member would. This is the second time Ive dealt directly with Tina Walling and without question she is the most helpful, sincere and knowledgeable person Ive dealt with a long time in a customer service/support situation. Unfortunately my car was totaled in a collision and Tina walked me through the entire process which armed me with the information I needed to deal with the insurance company and negotiate from a stronger position. I could not recommend K&M Collision more because of my dealings with Tina.

My Range Rover was hit from behind recently and the frame needs welding but is probably going to be a total loss. My Land Rover mechanic in Greenville told me to go to K&M in Hickory but State farm told me I had to work with calliber collision luxury in Charlotte. After three weeks of silence from the caliber collision luxury body shop I was fed up to hear I could have went to K&M from the beginning. Caliber collision luxury and state farm were trying to pigeon hole me into things I didnt want. The amount of professionalism and insight I was given from Tina at K&M collision turned this nightmare into a much easier process. Tina worked swiftly to get my issues resolved with amazing communication. Im hoping this review helps someone else who is getting bullied or neglected by an insurance company to reach out to Tina at K&M collision for her expertise. You wont regret it.

When my Audi was damaged I asked the dealership to recommend a repair shop. They did not hesitate in recommending K&M Collision in Hickory, N.C., which is an Audi Factory Certified repair facility.My past experience with body shops has always included dusty surfaces and the lingering odor of lacquer thinner, so I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived at K&M. The reception area was comfortable, tastefully designed and immaculately clean … a reflection of the attention to detail you can expect from their work. And, more importantly, the staff proved to be capable, knowledgeable and extremely professional.If your intention is to have your vehicle restored to the highest possible standard, I recommend K&M Collision in Hickory, North Carolina.

Review №27

K & M was wonderful to work with. I was in a car accident and being my first I honestly was clueless of how things worked with a vehicle in the shop. The insurance adjusters from the at fault party were awful and my car ended up at the wrong shop. Tina was an amazing point of contact and she was so thorough and just a lovely person to conversate with. If I had to guess I would say she runs a tight ship!! They were wonderful and I highly recommend.

K&M Collision did a great job in restoring my damaged car to its original condition. After 3 months of owning my car, debris from a dump truck had damaged the hood and front bumper of the car. The issue was taken care of quickly between the third party and K&M. Tina assisted me in any questions and concerns I had with the progress of repair.Edit: Repair took about 3 weeks from dropping off the car to pick up date. Pre-COVID.

Adrian at K&M Collision were wonderful to work with.I was in a car accident (first one ever). I had no clue what to do with Insurance/repairs. Adrian and Lisa guided me through the entire process, even better than my insurance company. Thankful is a understatement. I’ll definitely use them again.

The service from K&M was outstanding from beginning to end. I selected K&M because they were Tesla certified and they thoroughly exceeded my expectations. They completed the repairs in 3 weeks as promised, and the car looked better than the day we drove it out of the dealership! Special thanks to Adrian for managing all the details, including arranging delivery, which saved me a 4 hour round trip!

I had the pleasure of dealing with Tina while my car was at K&M. She was very professional and easy to reach via phone or e-mail, she recognized who I was by my voice every time I called. My car ended up being totaled so they did not perform any work on my car. Yet Tina happily walked me through every step that needed to be taken and her recommendations as this was the first time I had a totaled car. If I ever need collision repair I will be taking my car to K&M as they were a pleasure to work with. Thank you, Tina you are awesome!

Review №34

My car was in excellent hands when it went to K & M Collision. After damage to my vehicle, I opted to send it to the network body shop of my insurance company. After two trips in to that shop my car was not fixed. It was not fixed because the repair was based upon inadequate diagnostics by the insurance specified shop. That was a time-consuming and stressful ordeal.When I realized that that shop could not accommodate the job, I opted for K & M who are not local to me, but their reputation precedes them - they are who the VW / Porsche / Audi dealership Ive bought my last 3 cars from send all of their bodywork for repairs. From all individuals I asked, everyone will tell you, the vehicle is like new when you get it back from K & M. In my experience, K & M conclusively diagnosed the damage to my car. My situation was complex due to insurance handling and having another body shop involved. Throughout, K & M was highly knowledgeable and efficient, which helped me to navigate my options, with special thanks to Adrian Mora. I sincerely recommend K & M Collision. They are consummate professionals in their industry.

K&M Collision was a really great experience for me and my vehicle. The quality of work they put into my vehicle was exceptional. Typically when work is being performed on your vehicle, you constantly have to call and get updates; not with K&M. Adrian was awesome with sending me text messages keeping me updated with my vehicle. Not to mention, he made sure I had transportation to pick up my rental. Exceptional!

I used K & M Collision when someone backed into my car. It damaged the passenger door and the front quarter panel.K&M took over and worked with the insurance company, taking a lot of stress off of me.Of course Covid played a role, making it harder to get new car parts. But Adrian and Tina were awesome in keeping informed about the progress on my car. Even though it took a little time to get my car back, K & M did an awesome job repairing it.I would highly recommend that you entrust your next needed car repair to K & M Collision.

We picked up our car today from K&M Collision, and both my husband and I are very impressed with the quantity of the repair and with the customer service. Tina was very informative and helpful during the vehicle drop off. She assured us that everything would be taken care of, and she made good on her assurance by communicating with us frequently. At vehicle pick up, Adrian was professional and informative as well. He explained the repair thoroughly. We will definitely be back if any repairs are ever needed again on our car. We highly recommend K&M Collision!

My car was rear ended. I was very close to this shop when it happened and it was nearly closing time. They stayed late for me to drive my car there. They stored my car and once it was declared a total loss, they helped me collect my things and remove my tag. They really went above and beyond to provide the best possible service to me from expert advise to getting the ladybug cling from my rear view mirror to me (I had forgotten it) They truly paid attention to every detail!! I hate I was in an accident at all, but I’m glad it happened so closely to their shop and I took my car to them. I highly recommend using K&M 👍🏻

My car was wrecked so we had it towed to K & M Collision 67 miles from where we live because of a recommendation. Tina answered the phone when I first called and she communicated with me every few days while my car was at this business. She was so friendly and gave wonderful advice as I had never had a wreck. The car ended up being totaled so this business stored the car until it was released to my insurance company. Everyone here was so easy to work with plus one man, I didnt get his name, helped me clean the car out and explained the severe damage of the car. One other thing, I have to say I have never seen such a clean auto body repair business.

I trusted this company to take care of my Tesla that was in an accident. From the first phone call with Tina to getting the entire car taken care of perfectly was the easiest and smoothest experience that I’ve ever had with a body shop. They are bar none the best body shop that I have ever worked with. Given the significant damage to my car, there was a significant number of phone calls between Tina and I that I really appreciated. I can always call and have her answer my questions immediately! They are excellent working with both the customer and insurance company to make sure that you were satisfied. 100% A+ experience!

Review №43

My vehicle was taken to K&M collision on Feb 3rd, along with insurances estimate of record. We were greeted by Kyle at the front desk, who was professional and originally assured us we were in good hands. GREAT START!11 days later we were informed repairs are complete and we were Next in line to be painted! AWESOME!2 days later we were informed the car couldnt be released yet, as they needed supplemental payment from the insurance company. OK?7 days later, they were still waiting, 11 ADDITIONAL days no progress. 12 MORE ADDITIIONAL days no progress.March 25, approximately 55 days with no vehicle, I was now informed I have additional repairs to be done? WHAT?FAST FORWARD: After OVER 75 days with no vehicle, which you can imagine is quiet frustrating and expensive, we finally broke down and demanded resolution. 5 days later we were told they need to fight for more money with the insurance company, bc they repaired additional things we didnt even request to be fixed. I was asked to bring $900, which they would be able to get back for us in a few weeks after fighting with insurance, which we did because at this point the whole situation is just ridiculous. We left with the vehicle at this time. We were also told they would continue to fight with the insurance company and get us this money backWe were then contacted that they had made a mistake and we needed to bring an ADDITIONAL $1,602? UM? We also were told that they proceeded to not fight on our behalf for the $900 and now we are just suppose to be out that?Throughout the process, things started very well and professional. As a customer I was drug on at MY EXPENSE for over 2.5 months!!!! Our dealings with Tina? Not the greatest but up until our last conversation where she threated to sick a lawyer on us for the $1602 they were at least professional. On the other hand Our dealings with Michael the owner have to date been extremely unprofessional. People shouldnt have to come to google to vent to get a business owners attention. Its a very sad situation.Hopefully we can conclude this and both parties move forward, however to date its not looking very promising.I hope this review can reflect the importance of taking care of clients. A female should not have to be without a car for 75 days and pay additional money for repairs that were not even originally asked for.

What a truly wonderful experience I had at K & M Collision. First the facility is just gorgeous, everything is clean and well cared for. The atmosphere when you walk in is truly refreshing and the people are so NICE. They truly go above and beyond. I had no worried leaving my vehicle with them. When I picked it up it looked brand new and they even vacuumed and washed it, they may have even waxed it. They worked directly with my insurance, I didnt have to worry about anything. I will never go anywhere else.

After an accident, my truck was towed to K & M Collision on LR Blvd in Hickory, NC. My insurance company totaled my truck, based on the repair estimate from K&M.

Decided to use K & M Collision after my 2020 Acura NSX was rear-ended and it is now my go to place if I ever need them again and I live almost 3 hours away. From the moment I called they were professional and knowledgeable about my car and its process. Adrian was awesome to work with from arranging transportation for my car to the day I picked it up he kept me in the loop. The end product was awesome and you cant tell that my car had any damage. The paint match was spot on as I have a paint that is very specialized and I couldnt be happier with it. When I went to pick up my car the facility was clean and being able to see into the bay of cars was great. They literally did what no one else could.

K & M Collision did an amazing job fixing our car. It was brand new when someone backed into it and didn’t tell us. The passenger side door was dented, and some of the surrounding areas were also damaged. K&M said 3 weeks, and because of Covid it took a bit longer but they did an awesome job. They had to replace trim, all the goodies inside the door, blend paint, replace a logo or two, and we are super happy with the job. The employees were great, and the shop itself looks like a showroom. We definitely recommend these guys!

Review №56

I have probably worked with over 10 different body shops over the years and K&M Collision was by far the BEST shop I have ever worked with. My insurance company gave me so many delays through the process but Tina at K&M called me at least twice a week, every week with updates. K&M Collision did everything they possibly could to ensure I had a great experience, and they were very quick and efficient once the insurance company gave them the green light. Kyle (manager) even gave me his personal phone number so I could text him a few times and ask questions. Unbelievable service, they picked up and dropped off my vehicle over an hour away in Charlotte. My Tesla Model 3 had over $20k of damage and they made it look brand new, absolutely no problems, I will never go anywhere else. Thank you K&M!

K&M was a breath of fresh air after getting into an accident that wasnt my fault. Knowledgeable staff reassured me that if my car was repairable they would be able to get it back to factory specs. Kyle really felt like an advocate for me throughout the process. After evaluating my car, K&M came up with a more thorough estimate than the initial one performed by the insurance companys appraisal app called Snapsheet. My car was determined to be a total loss. Staff at K&M took the time to explain what my rights were in dealing with the other persons insurance at this time. This empowered me to be able to negotiate a substantially larger settlement amount than I was intially offered because I knew what my car was worth.

My car was originally quoted as a 1700 fix. KM asked for a supplemental repair Audit and was awarded an additional $6,200 of repairs. Now the bill is over $16000 the whole process but as of today I am beyond frustrated at my experience with this company.

I cant brag enough on the Team of professionals at K & M! Although the greeting / intake staff as a whole are superb, Tina has always recognized my voice by phone, as well as worked tirelessly with the shop in addressing my questions, concerns, and ensured I was completely satisfied! Will also made himself available to review my pickup, address questions, and took extra time to explain processes that considered my perspective. Finally, Kyle has been behind the scenes in some cases, wrestling with Insurance coverages, making the cases for returning my vehicles to factory specs, with a look usually only found in showrooms while they were new!

Review №71

I just want to start off saying I’ve never had to deal with a situation like this before. The insurance of the person that hit my car said it would only cost 1,600 to repair but the damage was far worse which puzzled me since I can tell even tho I’m not a car pro. I called k and m and spoke to Tina who was awesome and informed me all I need to do and what to tell the insurance to be able to get this taken care of and a rental. 20 min later I have the paper that k and m needs to be able to start the inspection process, and a rental number! After that I dropped the car off. A week later they inform me of the damage done to the car and the estimate totaling 5,700 which sounded more like the actual amount and that the insurance company would make a decision if it’s worth it for the repair or not. Few days pass and they decide to total it due to the higher mileage (230,000 mile 2007 bmw 530i) which made sense to me.All in all I want to say that k and m has been fantastic and that Tina is very knowledgeable and friendly. She definitely helped give me the peace of mind that I was in safe hands!Thank you K and M and most of all thank you Tina! You rock!

Tina worked with me so well! Explaining the process and how it works with the insurance company. I was a complete mess when I found out my baby was totaled and she helped me along the process which gave me a great deal of relief. I am very hard to handle and she was able to be very professional with me and that goes a long way in customer service!

Today my 2019 Dodge Challenger needed some minor paint repair, and the team at K & M Collision did a great job ! This is the second time I have used K & M Collision in addition to body work on my wifes VW. They are pleasant and professional and you can always count on them to use OEM parts and fix your car the right way . They do factory work on a lot of high end cars . They are also great at working with insurance companies, and do a good job of taking you out of the middle with the agent. I would highly recommend K & M Collison for both minor and major work .

My truck was hit by a deer! I called K&M, Tina was the one who took my call. She was excellent during the entire process. She called me with updates about my truck and kept me informed. The service I received was above and beyond anything I was expecting. When I received my truck back I could not believe the quality work that was put into my repair. I would like to thank the entire staff at K&M for making this process better than anything I could imagine. I will forever be a life long customer.

My Porsche was towed to K&M following an accident. The people at K&M, especially Tina, were both courteous and professional. They went out of their way to accommodate me, since I live a hundred miles away. I had heard from others about them, and I certainly recommend them for collision work.

K and M did an amazing job with my Tesla repair. From the moment I walked in and spoke with Tina she made me feel like I was the most important customer and greeted me plus took time out to even share her phone charger when I needed it. I would say K and M is the only place to work on any car due to they look out for the customer first and always. This is the only place to have your Tesla repaired. Thank you K and M.

Tina was very helpful and professional. Highly recommended place of business! In times of uncertainty we can only hope to deal with passionate people that is aware of the laws, the in and outs of insurance companies and most importantly how to deal with customers who are simply just frustrated. K&M far exceeded my expectations.

After being rear-ended, I was experiencing a lot of difficulties and lack of communication through the other partys insurance. All the team at K&M were extremely helpful and followed through with updates and repairs needed for the vehicle. They were all very friendly and professional throughout. The job repairing my car was flawless, leaving no indication that there was ever a collision. Many thanks to all who took part in making my experience a good one, especially Tina, LeeAndra and Kyle. Thank you!

The best decision we made after our Tesla was hit was having it immediately taken to K&M. From our initial contact, to our final interaction, they more than exceeded their pristine reputation. Tina, LeeAndra, and Kyle were wonderful and professional and quite frankly the only party in the whole ordeal that kept us informed, and made it feel like we weren’t just being “dealt with”. Please know that they took the time to call us to keep us up-to-date, and offer helpful advice AFTER our car was deemed a total loss and they stood to gain nothing. I cannot possibly praise them enough, and we will never take our cars anywhere else.

From the website, to handing you your keys back once the process is complete, Tina, Kyle, Adrian and all of K&M are the truest definition of professionalism! I could NOT have been happier with the service and knowledge shared by this establishment. Call Tina today!

Review №93

Would not recommend unless you like giving up your car for weeks on end.I brought my truck in to replace a small plastic panel on the rear door. After 2 and half weeks they still had not done the work. They really didnt make any effort to communicate to me or the insurance and get my truck back to me in a timely manner.Only when I called and complained loudly did they actually get moving.To their credit the work is well done and they paid my $100 deductible for me to make things right. So when they are paying attention to you they do right. Just be prepared to nag them.

I just had my 2020 Mazda repaired at K & M collision and couldnt be happier! A few years ago I had a bad experience at a local mechanical shop and left me with a bad taste about any shop period. I have a good friend that owns Allisons body shop in Charlotte and called him as soon as it happened. I was referred to K&M Collision Center from my insurance company. Allisons body shop talked to me about keeping my repairs close to home so it was convenient for me with rental vehicles and being close to the repairs. I had cold feet about it but my body shop friend said that would be the best thing to do. That makes sense, seeing how the body shop I normally use is an hour in a half away. I truly trust my friend. Not very many shops that push business to other shops but my friend Jason said that was the easiest thing for me to do. I value his judgment and he saved me a lot of time and money running back and forth. After picking up my car from K&M Collision I made a trip to my good friends body shop today. He and I looked over my car and he said this was some of the best paint and craftsmanship he has ever seen. Color was spot on every bolt and clip was in its proper place, color was spot on and he was very impressed with the job they had done. That makes me feel really good knowing my car is in the same condition as it was when I bought it. So I give K&M Collision 5 stars for doing such an amazing job on my car!!!! I also have to mentionTina Walling (Customer Care Supervisor) and the entire team at K & M who were great… very courteous and professional! Thanks Guys!!Just wanted to add that I was back in the shop (1/25/2021) for some paint touch-up and Tina Walling and the team were great as always. I didnt have an appointment but they still made time for me and got me in quickly.

I sent my car to K & M after a year and a half long nightmare between my insurance company and the body shop in Asheville who had repaired my car after an accident. Kyle is very experienced and I must say his customer service is outstanding. I could not say enough good things about my experience. They helped me in finally getting my car totaled (which should have happened from the start) With his expertise and thoughtfulness my nightmare is finally over and I cant thank him enough!!! Tina was super nice to work with and she went above and beyond to mail my tag back to me!!! I hope to never have another accident but if I do, K & M will be my first call!!!

Recently took my Audi Q5 to K&M Collision. The damage was extensive. From the onset communication with me and the insurance company was excellent. Tina, the customer services manager, was extremely attentive. Kyle, the lead person on the repair, was also excellent in this regard. The final result is outstanding-no evidence that an accident occurred.

We had just purchased a 2019 Armada that only had 323 miles on it when we were hit by another driver. I looked online to find a body shop that could do the repairs. After speaking with both Tina and Leeandra I choose to let K&M fix my new car. This turned out to be a great experience. The kept me informed from week to week on the status of my vehicle. K&M made this a hassle free experience on their end. I would highly recommend them to anyone that wanted quality work and showroom factory results. Everyone there was super professional, kind and courteous. The paint job was A1 you cannot even tell that the front was painted and the pearl white tri-coat is not an easy color to match. Trust me the last time I had another shop do any work it took them 2 times to get it right. But not K&M they got everything right the first. time. Thank you.

Tina and the staff went well above and beyond to explain every detail of the process. This was the first time I had to deal with insurance for an accident, and they all made me feel comfortable and confident. I would recommend them to anybody looking for a family environment.

Top notch repair place. Fixed our vehicles damage and returned it looking brand new. They called with updates and whenever we had questions about the process (first time dealing with insurance) they had all the answers quickly. Would certainly use them again, their repair area looked spotless which I imagine is another good sign of folks who care about doing a good job.
