Desi's Auto Collision - Auto Repair Near Me - Cathedral City, California

I've have taken my cars to several body shops in the Palm Springs area throughout the years and Desi's is by far the best. I didn't have to worry about unreasonable delays and their quality of work is amazing. I now recommend everyone I know to Desi's if they need any body work done and they've all had pleasant experiences. read more

I had a friend recommend this place after they got their car repainted a few months back. Desi was very easy to work with and handled the insurance process for my accident. He did say my car would be done within the week but took a few days longer. Not a huge deal, I know he was waiting on parts to come in. Overall, very good and easy experience and got my Chevy Cruze looking good again! read more

I would highly suggest the company. They were quick and honest, and the prices were great. Don't waste time anywhere else. Our car needed a bumper, and they also did a wonderful job of replacing it. Plus, they super-cleaned the inside. It was embarrassing how dirty a car gets with dog hair, but they made it all look brand new. I'm going back for more work soon. Embarrassed that I forgot a gift unwrapped for a buddy, but still, the car looks like new. Thank You Desi and your crew! read more

I had a small accident with the front left fender on my 2004 Toyota Camry . I took it to a couple of dealers for estimates and found Desi's auto collision to be the best for service and price and honesty. They replaced the front fender, straighten out the undercarriage plastic supports and match the paint perfectly. The guy was quick with the estimate and assured me I would have the car back in six days which they did. I found this shop to be fair, honest and reliable and there word was the honored. I would absolutely take my car their for any future work I may need done. It was a pleasure to find a shop to be honest, and dependable. Do your self a favor and drop in for an estimate next time your in need of a repair, you'll be glad you did. read more

Only good things to say about Desi and his operation. Thorough and detailed estimate for insurance purposes. Fast and satisfactory work once ins. co. approved estimate and parts obtained. Car completed on date promised. Vacuumed and double-washed so looked like new. Good paint match where front end damage was repaired. An honest operator with a good crew. Design will give you a lift back home, too, after you drop-off your car. Five stars! read more

Desi is the best. He is very transparent, communicates well and does a great job repairing damage. What I like most is the fact he does his due diligence dealing with the insurance companies and respects the fact people coming to him may have transportation issues and won't always be able to get there right away. Highly recommend. read more

Desi was super helpful, accommodating, and did a great job on my car. I was really impressed with the quality of his workmanship and at a fair price too. It was a small job, but he took care of it right away and made my project a priority, given my tight deadline. I would totally recommend this place. read more

I'm giving Desi's Auto Collision a 5 Star rating , but I would honestly give them a 10 Star rating if Yelp would allow it. I met Desi when I brought in my RV for an estimate on a complete exterior paint job. I had already checked out the Yelp reviews....and they were all very positive. Desi's estimate was very competitive.....but what really sold me was the warranty policy. All the other paint shops would only warranty materials and workmanship for one year. Desi's gave me a lifetime warranty in writing. Too good to be true!!! We'll today I picked up my RV and I could not believe my eyes. It honestly looked so much better than the day I brought it home brand new. My wife and I were so overwhelming pleased that we insisted on paying Desi more than he even quoted. I can't remember the last time that my expectations were exceeded to this degree. If you want a perfect result from an honest shop make Desi's Auto Collision your final choice. Thank You Desi....Michael and Marianne read more

So I took my 99 suburban which had a dent in it for ever took it to Desi it came out perfect great to work with he's my autobody guy, he did a great job arrest him and a great value read more

I couldn't ask for better personal service--Desi just took care of it. My BlueToy truck needed a facelift--new paint, dent and sand damage repair, and a general pick me up. The paint job is flawless, my truck looks brand new. Desi explained how to care for a new paint job and took personal care of my baby while it was being repaired. Decent price and personal care--a fair and honest businessman!!! read more

I was referred to Desi's from my mechanic Rich at Meinike's on Ramon Road . I took my husbands car in for a front spoiler repair... he had a huge bad scratch after coming too close to a round about. He noticed after removing the front spoiler that the under part was a mess from too many Parking concrete blocks scraping underneath. He did the extra work but kept his price the same! Great experience . read more

When we decided to get our truck painted, we did a lot of research and checked reviews of many businesses. We checked out Desi's and found great reviews, so we chose them...and unfortunately, this turned out to be one of the worst business experiences I have ever had. First they quoted 3 to 4 weeks to paint our truck, ok, they are busy, I accepted that...well 3 weeks went by, then 4 weeks went by and no word from them as to the status of painting our truck, so first lie.... We called and they said it would be another 2 weeks...ok...2 weeks came and went and still the truck was not done, second lie. After having to call them constantly, the truck was finally done 5 weeks later...so 9 weeks later, they call and say it is ready and come and get the truck...it was almost 5 pm at that point and it would be dark by the time we would get there. So we said no, since we were already getting suspicious of them, we will be there in the daylight to check the paint... we go to check out the paint job and we find that they have lost our truck key, the one with the alarm, and they had a new plain key made, trying to tell us that was what we gave them, third lie...we know what key we left them, jeez, how stupid do they think we are. Then we checked and the gas tank was empty, it was 3/4 of a tank when we left it, they said it was empty when they got it, forth lie. So, whoever was driving our truck around for 9 weeks had lost our key and used all our gas. Then we checked the paint job, it was awful. There were swirl marks everywhere, like they were trying to polish out bad spots and then stopped short of completing the job. At this point we were pretty upset and demanded this get fixed and it needed to happen asap. They wanted us to leave the truck for another 2 days, but we no longer trusted them after all the lies, and we suspected the next thing that would happen is that the truck would be 'stolen'. So we made them send the paint specialist to our house to finish the paint job correctly, buffing the whole truck out until it was right. While the truck was at our house we made sure we parked it in the driveway and blocked the driveway with our other car, because since they had keys made we felt they would try to steal the truck. We did not feel comfortable knowing they may have had spare keys made, so we went to the expense of having all the truck locks changed, including the ignition key. This all cost us an additional $400 and of course we also had to have a new key with the alarm on in made, costing us $200. They offered to have all this done at their expense, but frankly, after all their lies, we did not trust them and suspected the truck would disappear in a month or so, since they had keys and our address...well, this is what happens when you constantly lie. we just did not trust them...If I could give them zero stars I would have...buyer beware...take a picture of your gas tank reading and your mileage and your whole vehicle before you leave their lot...better yet, find somewhere else to take your vehicle. This business is not to be trusted. read more

Took my car here to get the plastic splash guard and wheel well repaired. They fixed all 3 parts at what I felt like was a very reasonable price. However, when my car was returned to me they had taken off my steering wheel cover, took off my fast track and flipped it up side down and there was a white scratch on my driver side door that wasn't there when I dropped it off. My car is a little beat up and not the prettiest vehicle on the block but there should be no reason why items where taken off, moved, or pulled out when they had nothing to do with the approved repair. I would have given 5 stars for the price but I can't ignore the lack of professionalism when handling my car and overall respect for someone else's property. read more

I am way beyond happy with my car repair experience at Desi's Auto Collision and I recommend Desi's without reservation! It's so rare in this day and age to find service with honest, fair and compassionate people like Desi who take pride is their work and produce quality results. My seven year old car looks brand new and shiny and so much better than I ever expected it to look again. The price was very fair, I had the car back in 2 1/2 days and the work is QUALITY! Life is good and Desi is GREAT! read more

Desi helped us out when we got stranded with our car, and did a excellent job fixing it. Since we live 200 mls further he kept us perfectly informed of the maintenance going on on our car. We're so glad we got stranded at his place. He fixed our car and we got to pick it up one week later. Excellent service! We thank you again for all the help we got from you Desi. read more

I have a 2015 42 foot American Coach motorhome. Two signs were dragged down 25 feet of the 4 color graphics on the side . The damage was severe. Desi gave me a price which I thought was reasonable and said it would take 5 days to complete. After 5 days I went back and was amazed at the perfect repair and paint job done to the motorhome! The work was flawless and color match perfect! And the price was exactly the original quote he gave. The is a first class operation and he wants your business, I would go back in a heart beat. Thanks Desi read more
