I experienced a hit and run mid December, but unfortunately with the holidays being in the same month, my insurance didn't allow me to get my vehicle into the shop into Michael J's until January 3rd. My car was towed in through my insurance and I didn't receive my vehicle back until today, February 10th. Evans, who was in charge of my vehicle told me in the beginning that my damages looked like it would only take a week to a week and a half. However, Evans informed me that my vehicle suffered internal damage which extended my pick up date. I didn't have a rental the whole two months because I'm under 21 and my insurance wouldn't cover the whole time period I would need it. One thing I would suggest to the shop is to communicate better and give updates at least every end of the week. I did express to the manager Jeff, that I always had to be the one to call the shop or get in touch with Evans to ask how soon will I receive my car back and how much progress has been made. As a full time student who also works full time, it was extremely stressful and difficult not knowing when I would have my vehicle back. I do appreciate all the damages being taken care of and my car being given back to me as if it never got hit, today is a good day! read more

Michael J's Collision center was very helpful in handling my body shop needs. I went in for a self payment job (not through insurance) and they were able to provide me with a quick quote.

I've been to Michael J's before. They did such an amazing job last time, I knew I'd use their service again when my car needed repairs again. Keaton and the rest of the team did an amazing job fixing my car. 10/10 service and experience! Highly recommend! read more

I recently had to get work done for my car after an accident and Hung at Michael J's was very welcoming and supportive. Everything was done super quick and smoothly. It only took about three days. When I picked up my car they had even washed it for me! I was not expecting that all but was super grateful for everyone at Michael J's. read more

It was such an easy process working with John at Michael J's Body Shop to repair my Volkswagen GTI after a neighbor hit my parked car. They worked directly with the insurance company (AAA) and made it super easy to drop off, pickup a rental car, and even finished the work a day earlier than originally estimated! I would recommend them to anyone needing to get auto body work done! read more

-- Look no further for a reliable body shop -- My drivers door was damaged in an accident, and the whole door needed to be replaced. I went in to this shop + they told me that it'd take a month for parts to come in (which it did) and five days for repair (which was true!) I received my car with no delays, and they even put it through the wash and gave me a little bottle opener keychain when they returned my keys. Unfortunately, the weekend came and went, and I found that there were a few issues with the door. So I called + was told to come in three days later (which could've been earlier, if I hadn't been busy) I went back in and Jeff (who had taken care of me from beginning to end) got my door fixed and (again) through the wash before return! My baby looks great and I can't thank this shop enough for being communicative, reliable, and fairly quick with service -- best auto body shop experience I've had. read more

My experience with this shop was amazing! My car looks as good as the day I bought it. Great communication and professionalism from Evan. Will be recommending this shop to everyone I know. read more

After a fluke collision of my relatively new car caused by somebody else while my sister was driving it and while I was out of the country, I turned to Michael J's for the repairs because they were an authorized Mazda shop. We arranged almost everything over the phone. Evan was really easy to work with and kept me informed during the entire process. The insured's insurance company was kind of a pain, but Evan worked everything out directly with them to make sure that our car was repaired like new. When I picked the car up last week, I was pleasantly surprised because it even looked cleaner than when we brought it in... thanks to a detailed wash! WOW - I highly recommend and am very satisfied with the repairs. Thank you! read more

13 days ago I Walked in for a quick estimate Was greeted right away by a lady and told to sign in using an iPad then shoved off to the side Had a guy then loudly ask the lady if I was a self pay as he was shoving food in his mouth , the lady confirmed saying she would add me under his name then he responded with saying he'll grab someone else as if I wasn't in the room hearing all this with other customers around Come to find out the same guy was going to end up "helping" me he walked out of a different door and came in the same door I did We walked outside to view the damaged area (bottom right quarter panel and top right of the bumper damaged) Apparently this area would cost 10,000 I couldn't believe I was getting quoted this off the bat and couldn't stop laughing Mind you I was getting quotes by other 5 star shops and small businesses using insurance or not none quoted me 10,000 The most was 5,000 using insurance the least 1,800 with no insurance from different shops I obviously needed a new bumper with a rough estimate being around 350/380 new by all the shops I asked I honestly think you should have employees who actually work on the cars to give estimates or at least help give estimates He tried telling me a pieces from the bumper (all the way on the bottom) has to be replace when it had nothing to do with the damage I saw there was another body shop right next door and they quoted me 1,600 Maybe I was treated differently because of the way I looked or what car I drove but definitely not a good first impression read more

I had a bit of an "oophies" with my car. I took my Subaru WRX to Michael J's shop and worked with Jeff, the owner. Jeff was personable, professional, and thorough throughout the whole process. He communicated with me during the process, from getting parts and insurance claims to the expected completion time. The shop did a phenomenal job of getting my car back to perfect! I am grateful and genuinely appreciate their customer service and quality of work. read more

I have brought my Subaru Forester here and they take such good care of my car (they are also Subare certified!). Make sure you ask for EVAN. Evan has been my go to since coming to this location and he makes sure everything is perfect. Not only does Evan take amazing care of your car, he accommodates and understands everything that is asked of him. Michael J's on 4th street is my #1 body shop and they have never let me down. They always answer phone calls, always accommodate for their customers, and give stellar results in a timely manner. They also treat your car as if it was their own car, with respect. I've never trusted any other body shop like how I FULLY TRUST Michael J's. THANKS MICHAEL J'S AND EVAN FOR FIXING MY CAR!!!! read more

I went to them for an estimate on a tiny paint chip on my car because they had done such a good job before and I felt they were trustworthy. The first time we got work done there they could not have been nicer. This time the only person who made eye contact was the estimator. The issue was a small chip on the drivers side door exactly 1/2 inch. Not only did they estimate $2000, they kept padding the bill with things that were clearly intended to get it as high as possible. The chip was on the drivers side door and they said I would have to replace my car logo on the rear drivers side door. The guy had a take it or leave it attitude. I had a different estimate that totaled $1000. Something changed there. Would not recommend. read more

My new 5 month old toyota highlander hybrid was hit by a driver that was parked next to me at a local shopping center. Driver was backing out of his parking space when he hit the back driver side of my car. I was devastated. Dealer had referred us to Michael J's and we are so grateful that they did. We had another quote and Michael J's was more reasonable. But more important, after talking to the owner, Jeff, he made me feel more comfortable and I felt this was the right place to bring my car. The service from the owner, Jeff to Keaton who worked with me on the quote and kept me updated on the progress of my repair to Esther in the office who called me to schedule my repair were all excellent. I would definitely recommend this body shop. The job that they did on my car was excellent. The team was professional and really super nice. Service Great. I highly recommend them! read more

I've brought my car here twice and recommend my family to bring their cars here. The staff is great and welcoming, always attentive to customer needs. They go out of their way to explain the issues and solutions in a way that's easy to understand. Sometimes there's a cute little dog that adds a charming touch to the experience. The repair work they have done for me looks amazing, with attention to detail that ensures a top-notch finish. The body shop maintains a clean and organized workspace. Their timely service makes them a reliable choice for anyone in need of car repairs. read more

Great service, and I got my car back within reasonable time. Hung was very helpful and responsive.

Michael J's Body Shop took only 2 days to complete the damage done to my car. They did a spectacular job, so much so that it looks brand new. Keaton Singer, the collision consultant, gave me an estimate for the work to be done. He is knowledgeable, thorough and very patient. I appreciated the fact that he was accessible, and I could call him with concerns or questions. I am very pleased with and value the quality of workmanship, professionalism and dedication by all the people who work there. read more

My car was rear ended with damage to bumper. I took my car to Michael J's for an estimate. They ordered the parts, scheduled a repair date and fixed my car in two days. They painted my bumper and it looks awesome. I used a rental car for the 2 days they we're repairing my car. when I picked up my car, Michael J's handled the rental car return. The cost was under what was originally anticipated. They are very organized, pleasant, easy to deal with and amazingly fast. I would recommend Michael J's to anyone who needs a quality repair shop. read more

Michael J's was a recommended body shop by my insurance. . They called me shortly after I spoke with my insurance agent. Tbh I was skeptical about going to a body shop I wasn't familiar with but I was pleasantly surprised. I was a little bit early for my 3 PM appointment But it was empty when I walked in so I was immediately greeted by the woman at the front desk and shortly there after I met with Hung (Operations mngr) who was there one to inspect the damage on my vehicle. Hung was really friendly and very thorough. He made sure I understood everything I needed to know about the claim and explained what I didn't. Everything was really smooth and efficient. He made me feel very comfortable. I would definitely go back and I would absolutely recommend this shop for your auto body needs! read more

John is the absolute best. This is the 5th time someone has hit me in a 10 year time span. I've gone to them every time and I would never go anywhere else. You can't get more professional service than them. They even got my car done a day early. It looks brand new again! read more

I was unfortunately in a car accident where my car bumper and axl were hanging down and liquid was oozing out. I was not able to move the car had had it towed. I called my insurance company and they suggested several places but this was the first on the list. Michael's J on 4th steeet was not too far from my house so it qas very convenient. I had to leave out of town the next day of the accident but was able to get my car towed to Michael's the next day. They called me every step of the way and was so on top of everything. I can see why the reviews are 5 stars and with so many people reviewing this place as well. The level of service is implacable. From the time you drop off your car to the check points and all the way to pick up. They are definitely the "Nordstroms" of auto body. Shoutout to the staff and John at Michael J's. Your level of service does not go unnoticed and I'm so thankful that my insurance company referred me here. read more

Jeff Ryan worked on my estimations and I was skeptical of him being bringing my baby back to life but he reassured me that my car was in good hands at his body shop. And my goodness after getting my car back after a week of being work I can say THiS IS the best body shop in the Bay Area not just the South Bay! Michael J's Bodyshop DOES NOT mess around and do "Mickey mouse" body work on cars like other mom and pops shop around San Jose/San Jose. I am recommending YOU to get your car done if you're already yelping which place is good bcos this spot is good for your car body work. Thankyou Jeff and everyone at the shop for bringing my car back to life. read more
