My car had an auto body issue while we were away from our home location and were visiting Salinas. We were on a tight timeline and had a flight to catch. Hector was thoroughly professional and ensured he would make it happen within a week provided all the parts made it in time. Hector was very professional, communicative, and reassuring through the whole process. Hector and his staff went out of their way to keep things on schedule and get the necessary parts on time. They also offered to drop and pick me up from my location which was a great personal touch! We were down to the last few hours of Friday and Hector and the staff worked over lunch to make it happen in time and my car was perfect and was detailed in time! Even offered an update next time I was in town. Massive kudos to the entire staff at Auto tech collision. They really turned a stressful situation into delight and customer happiness! If you are looking for an honest, reliable, and quality craftsmanship look no further and take your car to Hector and his team! Wish them the best as they look to open another location in Monterey!
I am so very happy with the workmanship and glad I found Hector and his crew! About 4 years ago I was in a windstorm and opened my driver side door when the extreme wind flew the door open and bent the hinges. I had been looking to have this fixed but only got responses like I need to take the door off and charge $100+ per hour and dont know how long it will take. In the meantime I taped the door close because the wind noise was unbearable and made the whole door vibrate. Hector had one look, gave me a reasonable price range. I just drove for miles on the highway and the wind noise is gone. Its like I have a new van!!!I also had the propane tank painted, see pictures they speak for themselves. Very thorough job!The third thing they did for me was to take the ugly broken plastic bumper off to reveal a beautiful chrome bumper underneath it (they did not install it, it was already there)Having a 19 years old camper van, I know I will be back!Thank you so much Hector and crew!Gertrud Robinson
They did a great job and made my car look brand new. I got window done too. Everything was hassle free regarding insurance and claims. Really helpful staff! The quality was good and the price was fair!
I had an awesome experience with Car Tech Auto Collision, excellent service and top quality work. I had the most kind and professional attention. I was amazed at how fast and great job Car Tech did. They not only painted the roof of my vehicle, but they gave it a nice FULL (much needed) car detail. Feels like I’m driving a brand new car, so in love with the results. The whole experience was such a smooth transition from dropping it off until the time I picked it up. Outstanding work and service, highly recommend this place. Thank you so much!
A gas station pole bumped into my truck and put an ugly dent in my fender. I gave these guys a call after seeing many good reviews. Their estimate came in about $200 less than two other places. Thats because they were able to fix the existing fender and just touch paint it, instead of replacing the whole thing and having to paint the door and the hood to blend it. The other places I talked to wouldnt bother with doing the hammer work, but Hector crunched the numbers and explained to me that would be a cheaper option. Hes very professional and also gave me a ride home after I dropped my car off at the shop. The truck looks like brand new! If Ill ever need body work done again, Car Tech Auto Collision will be the first place I call.
My 2010 Porsche Panamera Turbo needed some attention. At 10 years old, some shine was lost, the headlights were hazy, the wheels had road rash and a few dings and scrapes that needed to be repaired. The shop was not the nearest to where I lived, but I chose to take my car there after reading the positive reviews online. I am really glad I did. By the time they were done with it, the car looked exactly like the day it left the showroom floor.It looked brand new. The attention to detail and skill of their technicians was incredible.The staff members I came in contact with were very kind and professional. Hector (the owner) initially inspected my car, answered my questions, and gave me a fair estimate in writing. He was attentive and really listened to my requests as to what I needed done. I would highly recommend these guys and will definitely be going back when any of my cars need detailing or body work. I give this company five stars.
I am really impressed with the overall work at Car Tech Auto Collision! I brought my brand new Dodge Challenger here when I got into a small accident. Hector and his team were very professional and even helped me with my insurance claim. They kept my insurance and I updated on all the things that they were going to fix on my car. This gave me so much confidence in knowing that my car was in good hands. Hector and his team went above and beyond! My car looked like it just came out of the Dodge dealership when it was done. They did an amazing job and even did an interior/exterior detail on the car. I greatly appreciate their work and can’t thank them enough! Thank you so much!
Poor body work. Vehicle was held up for a month when I was told it would only take a 2 to 3 weeks at the most. Problem after problems after vehicle was returned, even after 5 years. To list a few: they Completely botched my car to the point that it didn’t start anymore, so they had to tow it to the dealer ship to get it reprogrammed and start up. Shop master said the guys at this shop didn’t know what they were doing and that they “botched” my car. My car was returned with Misalignment hood, fender and pins missing from fender, which caused my vehicle to whistle. One of my fan was unplugged. Driver side Sun visor was replaced, but kept breaking off at first use because they kept breaking the plastic inside each they replaced it.
This place is phenomenal. I bought my car used and they got stains out that the dealership had left. I got a level 3 detailing and legitimately have a brand new car. Beyond that, they didnt realize my car seat had air bags making them more difficult to remove so instead of charging me more, they removed them to clean the carpet anyhow. Truly a great buisness which did a great job!
I had an accident with a tire. My whole front bumper was messed up & parts inside around the engine were shattered. These guys left my car like new fresh off the lot. Even thought they had painted the whole car of how incredibly looking they had left it. Real professionals. I’ll recommend this body shop to all my broadcasting business partners.
I found this little gem on yelp. The service, quality, professionalism and timeliness was top notch. Hector gave me an unbeatable price. As a resident of Gilroy, driving to Salinas was well worth it. Car tech will definitely be my go to if I have any other auto body needs.
Fast service to get you back on the Road
AWESOME JOB! My sister took in her car to get her bumper replaced and loved their work. She recommended that I go in to get a small paint job on the side of my car. I did and I LOVED IT! Hector was very nice and emailed me updates on my car. I was very impressed with his paint job! My dad even liked his work, that now he will be bring his car in too! Great experience!
Car Tech was the only place that could pull off repairing my car while everyone else said it couldnt be fixed. The honesty and business integrity of Hector and his workers are by far the best around! I cant recommend them enough, I am beyond grateful to him and his guys as well as beyond ecstatic that my car was repaired in a fast turn around! I wouldnt recommend any other businesses in town, if youre searching for honesty and integrity in the auto industry, it doesnt get any better than Car Tech auto collision!
As a former customer, and a former employee (job shadow), in that order, the crew at Car Tech Auto Collision are of the most elite the business has to offer. No sleazeball service writer making false promises and making the whole situation sound worse than it is, rather, youre greeted and treated like a friend or distant relative from start to finish. The actual work done on the vehicles there is immaculate. No wonder why thousands and even our finest and bravest officers trust their patrol units to these guys. Seriously, this place rocks.
For anyone who needs glass or bodywork for their car, this is the place to go! Hector and his team are very professional and most importantly very affordable. I had a nice seamless experience here. They did a great job and for a great price! I needed my windshield replaced. I called in the afternoon and Hector got me in first thing the next morning. I was able to wait around as they did the work efficiently and quickly, but they did offer to drop me somewhere if needed. Hector handled the whole process very professionally. He was friendly, polite, and courteous and seemed honest as far as I could tell. I didnt feel like he was trying to rip me off (being a female by myself) and in fact I feel he gave me an exceptional price and discount. They speak Spanish and English and all communications were very clear. Also, the office is very clean and nice, so I was quite comfortable while waiting there. Thank you Hector and Car Tech Auto Collision!!
I took my car in because I wanted a different front grille for my 2020 4Runner and Hector was able to help me out. They also detailed the exterior/interior and did an amazing job!!!
Car tech performed a repair on my Subaru cross track Jason was fabulous attentive kept me informed every Step of the way 110% please with quality of work service and communication highly recommend.
Amazing experience as always. Going to them over 5 years now from any need, ranging from details to collision repairs! They always have me covered !
Great shop, really good customer service. They do great work and make sure customer is happy with the quality of their work. Will recommend to all my family and friends!
I have a classic truck that I am restoring. I asked if I could bring in just the truck cab and have them paint only the inside using my custom colors. They seem excited to be working on it. Everyone in the shop seems happy and excited to be at work. I can be a chatty Cathy when it comes to cars. They always take time to talk to me, answer my questions, work through ideas. I dont have the finished product yet and I will update this review after the work is complete but so far, my experience with Car Tech has been fun and exciting.Thanks, guys. Cant wait until it is done.
Hector and his team are the go to place for all your body work needs. My business partner and I have used their services whenever a fender bender has occurred throughout the years. 5 stars! Will use again!
Car Tech Auto Collision is the best! Hector does an amazing job I am a repeat customer and he always take care of me. We took in a 2015 Toyota Pruis C with a tri color paint and wanted the front bumper repainted and it came out perfectly. We just picked up our 2018 BMW X3 M40i in Silver also repainted the front bumper again it looks amazing. If you guys need any auto paint go see Hector. Full warranty so no need to worry.
One of the Best shops around, service for me was fast and excellent, and so was the customer service, I waited 6 months to post my review so be able to see how the repair would hold up and it still looks like nothing ever happened to the car, prices were among the best around and I left very satisfied. I would recommend this shop to anyone!
Ive used this company to repaint several of my cars to include repairing and repainting work done by another notable body shop. They were able to color match and paint the vehicles so that you would never know it was damaged. I also recently had them do modifications to my Jeep that required cutting the body. Not only did they do a great job, they ensured the end product looked as if came from the factory that way to include the modifications under the hood.
Definitely the best body shop in the Monterey county. My truck was involved in a huge wreck and after Hector and his crew were done with the repairs it looked just as new as it did when I drove it off the lot. Would have never noticed a difference after the repairs! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
My wifes car got broken into last week and her purse stone. The front passenger side window was shattered. I called for a few hours trying to find a shop that our cars window and that could repair it the same day since I could not have my wife drive a windowless car. It might invite more vandalism. I finally found Car Tech. They told me they would check and call back.15 minute passed by and they called back and let me know they had my window. I them let them know that my wife would need to pick up my daughter at 2:00 and they said no problem. Mind you I called at about 11:00. They said just have her come in at 12 and we will take care of the problem.They sure did. My wife arrived at 12:15 they took apart out car, installed the window, processed my insurance and got my wife out the door at 2 as they promised.Wow! A big thanks to them for helping us get through a bad day. Felt much much better after my wife drove our car all patched up. i highly recommend this shop!Great job!:-)
They are the best and very professional!!! Hector is the best and answers all your questions in detail.....they are an Awesome body shop 👍
Professional Service. Friendly Staff. Affordable Prices.All the reasons why Car Tech is the place for all your collision and modifying auto needs.
Great quality work and attention to detail. Family owned and operated and great service.
They are doing very well job on my car, My car got collision and the whole back bump got crashed, they changed new bump and paint it, they are doing good job on paint, the color looks really good. They also finish all the works before the estimation, saved me lots of time. Thanks Guys, really good job!
They do amazing work here, and all the auto body techs and painting specialist know their business,, Here at Car Tech you get what you want at a reasonable price..
Honestly, this is the worst shop i could have got a recommendation to! When j showed up the first time to pick up my car, everything they said would be fixed was not ! Obviously i didnt take my car home that day. The second time i went to pick it up, the paint job was done terribly wrong! It was really bumpy! A couple days later, my bumper started to fall apart again, same spot where they had repaired it! This place is a joke guys! If i could go back in time, i would of chosen a shop that means quality .. and truely goes by it!
Amazing job on my Chevelle
Lol i obviously changed my name for perpnal reasons. I was in fact a customer at your shop and paint job was done terribly wrong. Its only been around 4 months and the paint is bubbling already lol you all are a joke! And my bumber you guys glued back together instead of replacing like you had originally said has already fallen apart. $$$$ down the drain.
They treated me kindly quickly, it was part of my insurance.
A very bad experience I would not recommend I was charged too much money they left my car full of details a part was taking off and they told me that if I did not remove the comment from the Web they would not repair it
