    Anyone who worked on my car would have seen this problem but no, just give the unsafe car back to the customer. It is okay.

    I too am an AAA member and was referred to 19th Auto Body by them. AAA claim office is another member of the "1-star Club" but that is another review for another time. Basically, the work is to replace hood and paint but I got an unsafe car back. This is the consequences of poor workmanship, quality control and "Just Get The Money" by 19th Auto Body Daly City. The repair started January 12, 2022 and completed January 14. I found the issue listed below that same weekend. The repair to the repair was not completed until March 11, 2022. So I wasted 7 weeks of my time. I dealt with the same person as the other review but I also contacted Cliff (General Manager) at the other branch in San Francisco. He was no help. He looked at my car and said he will contact AAA. Well, never heard from him since. My car had a damaged hood and the repair was to replace the hood and re-paint. A picture is attached. The issue is the hood support rod does not fit into new hood. The slotted hole on the hood is too small. This is a safety issue since the support rod is not secured to the hood; it is held together by friction. If either were bumped or blew by a gust of wind, the hood could fall. The 2nd issue is the hood has be pushed down hard in order to close. Anyone who worked on my car would have seen this problem but no, just give the unsafe car back to the customer. It is okay.

    Got t-boned on both passenger doors :(

    I came here bc I got into another accident (2nd one of the year!), so the year 2020 sucks lol. I chose this body shop since it was in network with the insurance company, and bc it is close to where I live. Randy helped me out with everything and made the process super smooth and easy. He told me I was going to get my car back within 9 days, but then called me saying that it would only take 5 days since they already got the parts they needed. I got my 2 passenger doors replaced and the front and back panel fixed as well. So happy with the results and the amount of time it took to fix my car. Randy is also super nice and communication with him was consistent as well. Overall, thanks to everyone at the repair shop for being super helpful and reassuring when it came to my car being fixed!

    Walking past your car on your way to work and discovering that someone had the sudden urge to seriously remodel the driver side rear wheel arch using something that only be the equivalent of a bulldozer is not a fun experience. I choose to make an appointment with one of the two of my insurance company's partner body shops offered to me randomly. I kind of regretted picking 19th Autobody as the other place had .5 more stars. I was too lazy to change the appointment though. Later that week I drove to the only 19th Autobody on Yelp and was surprised to find out that apparently I was at the wrong 19th Autobody. This 3.5 star business on 19th Ave now had a second location. Frak. Not only am I at the wrong place, but this mythical second location isn't even on Yelp yet. My mind was envisioning a pack of wild 2011 Space Odyssey monkeys beating on my car using primitive stone tools as I drove to 7323 Mission Street. I dropped off my car in a small but clean shop. The drop off situation was a little confusing as I was asked if I wanted shop around other body repair shops for a better quote even though my insurance was going to cover everything except the deductible. They lose a star here. However, when I picked up my car 3 days later it looked like new. They had fixed the damage, detailed the car and even supplied me with a cute little bottle of touch up paint. No human being should ever have to endure going to a not on Yelp business. You're welcome.

    See all

After calling a couple shops in the area for quotes and timing, I narrowed it down to either Secureway or Tesla's mobile repair for the mirror with a combo of them or another shop for the paint. Lucero walked me through the process of ordering parts, repairing/repainting the doors, and dealing with insurance. Based on the already great reviews, my experience speaking with Lucero, and the fair estimate they provided, I decided to give them the entire job. They did not disappoint! It took a little while longer than expected because Tesla took a while to ship the parts, but they kept me updated and the car looked good as new afterward. It looked like they washed it, topped up the charging, and had all the protective mats and plastics for the interior to keep it clean. I appreciate the work they did and would highly recommend!

    This was my second time bringing my vehicle to Precision Auto Body & Detail. They have always done…read moregood work, or so I thought. Overall, the quality of their service and what they guarantee is spot on, but the attention to detail is lacking, heavily. For $400 I should be getting top-notch service. I should be the VIP of your establishment for the day! And I wasn't. Honestly, it's just simple things that shouldn't be overlooked that truly matter. What does a $400 "Complete Auto Detailing" get you? PROS: Exterior - Wash, Dry, Clay Bar, Wax, Protective Sealant, Wheel cleaning, and Tire shine. Your vehicle will glisten almost to perfection in a way that is showroom quality. Interior - As they claim, "a complete shampoo of the interior including the carpets, seats and floormats." And this is where it stops. CONS: Honor the time agreement! I booked my appointment on Tuesday 3/17 for Friday 3/20 and was told to drop my vehicle off between 8 and 8:30am. So I arrived at 815a on the day of my appointment, only to find that the front office door was locked, dark and unoccupied on the inside. It's not a good business practice to tell clients to arrive or be somewhere at a certain time and you, yourself, are not there. Exterior - No attention to detail for the small things. It's easy to spray on car washing foam and then pressure wash it off. But when you overlook the wheel wells that's an issue. The area that a spray wash just doesn't get it. Don't call yourself a "detailing shop" if you're not going to take the time to look at and address the minor details. My vehicle is White, and just like a Black car, it shows the dirt along with everything else. Had you been paying attention, you would have and should have caught this. Don't be afraid to get down on your hands and knees and put some "elbow grease" scrubbing effort into thoroughly cleaning ALL the parts that needed to be cleaned. If there's paint and clearcoat, it shouldn't be overlooked. Interior - While they also clean and wipe the door panels, dashboard or door jambs, this is where they fell short with the quality of service by my standards. My interior gas cap door was not cleaned/wiped. The engine hood was not opened nor was it wiped and cleaned either. (See pictures) It's not like I was asking for a steam cleaning of the engine bay, but nonetheless, it's a door with a crease and hinges. If your claim is "we wipe the door panels and door jambs," under the hood shouldn't have been overlooked. Again, details matter. Honestly, you didn't even try and make an attempt and it shows. The sad thing about this whole process compared to other detail shops is they don't "Deliver" your car to you. They don't walk you out to your vehicle and go over the details of everything that they did and inquire about your level of satisfaction. Because if it's not right they'll fix it. Unfortunately at Precision Auto Body & Detail you just walk in, pay, get your keys back, and then off you go. On to the next one. I've been to other auto detail shops that treat you like royalty from start to finish that are equally comparable in price. Maybe I'll spend the extra $200 somewhere else going forward, that I know for certain won't overlook the simple and minor details.

I never actually did any work until my car was involved in an accident making it not drivable. The car was actually towed here and the staff did not bother to reach out or acknowledge that the car has arrived at their shop. I actually had to call in to see if they did any estimates or begun any work on the car. I then signed and submitted all the required paperwork from them to start the tear down and repairs. A month has then passed where they had my car in their possession and insurance already approved the tear down and repairs. There was no communication whatsoever on the status of the repairs and I called asking for an update and received no response back. I actually went in person to check on the status and my car was nowhere in sight at the shop. I spoke with Fernando and he told me they are working on the car. Fast forward and patiently waiting 2 weeks later I receive a call that my car was ready for pickup. Upon arrival, I was greeted by the lady at the front desk who was very rude and did not acknowledge my presence. After paying them my deductible and having them retrieve my car, they simply left my car key in the seat and walked away. Customer service here definitely needs improvement. After picking up my car from Auto 360, I immediately noticed issues. The pre-collision system had stopped working, and the wheels were creaking. I brought the car back the very next morning and spoke with Fernando again. Surprisingly, he didn't seem shocked to see me return and gave the impression he already knew about the problems with the repairs, yet still let me drive off with the car in that condition. I do give them credit for the body work, as the paint matching and blending was on point. Another month passed with no updates. When I followed up in person, I was told to give them another 2 days, as they sent my car for an alignment. Eventually, I did get a call saying the car was finally ready. In my experience, it seems like delays might be tied to issues with insurance reimbursements, as they submitted multiple supplements to my insurer for additional approvals. If you are considering bringing your car here, be prepared for a long wait and double-check their work thoroughly. Hopefully you have rental car coverage or else the wait will be unbearable. If something isn't right, don't just leave a review here. Speak up and hold them accountable. To their credit, as an apology for the 2 month delay, they replaced my bald tires and performed an alignment as a courtesy.
