    Angie A.

    Thank you Victor for helping for helping me for the last 2 years! We need more mechanics like you in this industry. You're one of the only few mechanics who isn't afraid to touch my Italian car! Also who isn't over priced

    They had a joy ride

    They seemed to be concerned w body work and kept quoting me labor ($3500) and before telling me I needed a new timing belt, suspension and body work. He also added "you look like a rich girl" (that was awkward) "but if it's money we can work something out". Dropped it off to get fluids flushed and an oil change. None was done.

    I had my Bentley towed into this shop as mice chewed through some wires, engine was misfiring and smoke coming from the crossed wires (turns out these were mass air flow wires). Later on the owner gave me an estimate of $2500 to repair, I thought this was excessive but they claim to be "Bentley Specialist" per their website, said it is a lot of work as the wires are under the engine and not easy to access. I have dealt with mice in this vehicle before, it was never this expensive but I went ahead with the repair as the owner seemed trustworthy and the vehicle was already at his shop. They said the car would be ready in a few days and they will contact me when done, after a few days I called him to ask when will it be ready and he would repeatedly say later today but yet would never call. They had the car for over a week and supposedly they could not figure out why the car still is misfiring but it was running better than before and they said it can be driven home. They also wanted more time time to dig in deeper to find the issue, obviously more money. I told them I am picking up the car as is and will be there in an hour, my thoughts were if they couldn't figure how to repair it by now they either did not know what they were doing or they are milking it. When I arrived they still had the car on the lift and were putting it back together, still not sure why car was not ready after I gave them an hour notice. I limped the car back to my garage where it sat for close to a year as it was challenging to find a HONEST/COMPETENT Bentley mechanic. I eventually found a reputable Bentley shop in San Diego, had the car towed there and he immediately found the issue (2 bad coils) fixed the issue for $600. There is no reason this shop did not check the coils/sparkplugs, they have a scanner and it showed a misfire on cylinder 1 and 12. This is basic mechanics 101, I have a scanner and this was the first issue that popped up. These were the error codes before I dropped off the vehicle and same codes after I picked it up V000769 - Cylinder 1 P0301 - 002 - Misfire Detected , V000786 - Cylinder 12 P0312 - 008 - Misfire Detected. In addition, I asked them multiple multiple times to send me pictures of the wiring repair before and during the repair, they acted clueless and they never sent any pictures. After I picked up the vehicle and paid the bill, I requested pictures again and they sent me some random pictures and none which were of the wires they repaired and now I know exactly why. Enclosed image are the wires they repaired, I felt like an idiot once my new mechanic showed me the repaired wiring and he was flabbergasted that I was charged $2500. My new mechanic said he would have charged me under $500 and he is in a shop that specializes in only high end exotics. To add insult to injury they did not even use heat treated wrapping for the wiring, they used regular electric tape which is currently unraveling in the enclosed pic (the red circle is where the wiring connects to the engine). You would think a Bentley Specialist would know a W12 engine will get hot and to properly wrap the wiring or even engine for that matter. In addition, I later was told you should never drive a car that misfires as all the excess gas that does not get burned off goes into the exhaust and destroys the catalytic converters. I wasted a lot time dealing with this car on something that should have been easily identified and resolved. Not only that the car registration expired, I could not renew the registration as a smog check was required, car would not pass smog back then due to the misfire and I had to transfer the vehicle to non operation status. As of today the car wont pass smog as it is having catalytic converter problems. I had this car for over 10 years, not once did I ever have a cat problem and the cats are very expensive on this car. I should also mention they charged me an additional $20 for gas. I would not recommend this shop.

    My whole bumper and grill were destroyed & It looks brand spanking new now :D

    They're too expensive. They quoted me $200 for an oil change for my BMW three series. I might as well go to the dealership for that much.

    I have a 2008 Audi Q7 with a malfunctioning rear liftgate. I suspect I may need to replace the liftgate motor or motors. Any idea what something like this might cost so I can compare cost with the dealer?

Their prices are very reasonable compared to other body shops, but what really keeps me coming back is the quality of their work. Every time I pick up my vehicle, it looks like new again. On my most recent visit, they estimated the repair would take about four days, but the work was actually completed two days ahead of schedule. That was a pleasant surprise and speaks to their commitment to taking care of customers. What also stands out is their attention to detail. Not only was the repair work excellent, but they thoroughly cleaned the vehicle before returning it to me--even the floor mats were spotless. It's those little touches that show how much pride they take in their work.

Had some minor damage to the lower portion of my front fiberglass spoiler that I wanted fixed and touched up on my recently purchased car, and he gave me a very reasonable quote. For the scope of work like mine, his typical turnaround is one day...drop it off in the morning, and the next morning you can pick it up. I decided to go with Steve as his quote was nearly 3 times less than my other go-to guy I have used on many occasions in the past. I am so glad I did! Not only did Steve address the main area of concern, but also cleaned and touched up areas along the bottom portion of both sides of the front spoiler you cannot even see (unless you crawled under to have a look). The previously damaged area looks like it came off the showroom floor brand new. First rate work! Thanks Steve! Pleasure meeting and working with you...appreciate your exceptional work.

Every one I went to. And prices that just seemed nearly outrageous as well. Then I came to Steve's Mobile Paint and Dent Repair shop. I could tell immediately I was dealing with a 'normal' business owner that would prove to me that he wasn't some one trying to make a fast buck, or lay some sales pitch on me how it's going to be some outrageous amount. I'm not sure how to put it in words well, but the bottom line is that I immediately felt I was dealing with an HONEST, and Considerate person who genuinely wished to help me and not find ways to gouge me in price nor the 'con' job of what needed to be done. In fact, he showed me how some of the body defects were in fact something that could be buffed out easily. All the other seven body shops had just tallied that area of concern as requiring well over a thousand dollars to 'repair' - when in fact, it was a simple buff and polish and gone, at well, well less that the thousands all the other shops had told me it would cost. What I've learned out of all these shops I had gone to, is that they will attempt to make you believe you need to pay thousands when often some of the 'defects' could be done at a huge fraction of the price. Could Steve had done what all these other body shops had? And got me for much more than what they all knew could be done for less?? But he didn't. That is HONESTY. That is INTEGRITY. That is a GOOD and FAIR businessman!!! He's ONE man that I would trust anytime to repair my vehicle, and would come back again and again. And, anyone that values honesty and integrity, coupled with excellent work and service, would never go anywhere else!

Suddenly, my futuristic spaceship looked like a tragic metal accordion. Along with the crumpled exterior went my pride, my joy, and every last ounce of my dignity. I was wandering in the automotive wilderness, terrified that my car would never be the same. Enter the absolute superstars: Raul Reyes and Ryan Reyes. From the moment I walked into ROEM, these two didn't just look at a busted Tesla; they looked into the eyes of a broken man and basically said, "We've got you." They took my mangled Model 3 Performance and worked what I can only assume is some kind of certified Tesla sorcery. Raul and Ryan were incredibly communicative, professional, and completely transparent throughout the whole process. But more importantly, they are miracle workers. When I finally picked up my car, the paint matching was flawless, everything was perfectly aligned, and it honestly shone a little better than the day I drove it off the dealership lot. They didn't just repair my car--they resurrected it, and in doing so, they restored my dignity. I am back on the road, practically glowing, and feeling better than ever. If your Tesla needs CPR and you need your pride saved, go see Raul and Ryan at ROEM Auto Body. They are absolute legends.

We had the pleasure of working with Raul -- he's not only super knowledgeable but made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the entire process. His team gave us honest, clear updates and realistic expectations about the timeline and repair work. That level of transparency made us feel like we were being taken care of like family. The customer service here is top-notch -- from the front office staff to the mechanics and management. Everyone was warm, professional, and incredibly helpful. Of course, I hope we're never in this situation again... but if we are, there's no question -- we're coming right back to ROEM. Thank you for taking care of us and our car!
