We absolutely cannot speak highly enough of John and the whole team at Santa Clara Auto Care. My family's treasured 2003 Mercedes SUV was rear-ended on the highway and declared "totaled" by our insurance company who insisted it was not worth fixing. However, we didn't want to let go of it just yet and decided to ask Santa Clara Autocare for a repair quote, "just to see." John picked up the phone and walked us through the whole process from beginning to end and patiently explained all the options to us. Our insurance company was really pressuring us to accept their settlement payment and overwhelming us with forms and deadlines, and it was such a blessing to talk to John and finally have a conversation with an experienced professional who we could trust to give his straightforward, honest opinion about what it would take to fix our car. The car wasn't starting, so we just emailed in some photos of the damage for a preliminary assessment. John looked at them right away and told us immediately what he thought would be fixable. He actually even asked to put us on hold for a few minutes so he could call his parts dealer right away and check if there were any replacement parts available, because he was not sure the parts would be available for such an old model. We also described all the struggles we were facing with the insurance company and he gave us some truly helpful information about how to navigate our insurance situation and negotiate for the best possible settlement. Then after we finished talking on the phone, we got a follow-up email right away - I think within one or two hours - with a full quote estimating the cost of all the repairs and replacements. Now, nobody in our family knows anything about cars so we were asking a lot of dumb follow-up questions (like, what's a crossmember? what's a rear body panel? and so on). John was so patient in answering all our questions and making sure we understood everything in the quote. But we were still feeling a little nervous - what if after we brought in the car, he found some more severe damage that didn't show up in the initial pictures and the cost of repair "blows up"? When we told him this he offered to come inspect the car in person at our home! He took a thorough look at everything and assured us that he felt confident in his initial quote. Throughout the repair process John gave us updates every 2-3 days, with photos of how the repair was going. We told him how little the insurance company was offering us for the settlement money and thanks to the skill of the Santa Clara Auto Care team (plus I'm sure a little bit of luck!) John was even able to reduce the cost a little bit more from his initial estimate. Not only did they complete the repair to absolute perfection, they left the inside and outside of the car spotlessly clean and polished - it looks brand new, and way better than it looked before the accident. They also insisted on buffing out some other dings and scratches that they noticed, even though it had nothing to do with the accident. When we picked up the car, we even received a pleasant "bonus" surprise: they had found a pair of glasses that my mom thought she lost, and left them neatly in the seat pocket! The team's attention to detail and standard of care is totally incredible. These are experts who are proud of their work and won't settle for anything less than perfect. I would never wish for anybody to get into a car crash, but if you find yourself in that situation, Santa Clara Auto Care is the place to go. It was a true relief to work with a professional, honest, trustworthy business and feel absolutely confident that our car was in excellent hands and that we were getting a fair price for an astonishing level of skill and workmanship. Especially in a world of big, faceless insurance companies and a wasteful consumer culture of just buying new things when the old ones don't work anymore, it gives us such hope and relief that there still exist small businesses like Santa Clara Auto Care and people like John who are dedicated to doing honest, professional, and excellent repair work. We will be recommending Santa Clara Auto Care to absolutely everybody we know! read more

I was referred to John after my 2013 SL550 was serviced by Mercedes Exclusively which is next door. I had some bumper work that needed to be done as there was PPF damage when it was removed and it took off some of the paint, not at all related to Santa Clara Autocare. I had tried to fix it myself and put a rubber bumper guard over it, but it never really looks OEM and it bothered me. I had received quotes in the past, but it was only for a new bumper and it was over $2,000! I was so happy to have met John who was honest, upfront, and timely! They removed the rubber bumper guard, sanded down the affected areas and then resprayed the paint to perfectly match the existing color, they are truly paint experts. The car look better than when i purchased it CPO and so happy with the way it turned out. I would recommend John and his team for any body work that needs to be done as they are great and well priced. THANK YOU SANTA CLARA AUTOCARE! read more

Dennis is super nice and informative! They worked with my insurance to get my car done while I was away on my trip. Came back and it seemed like nothing even happened to it! Would recommend coming here:) Car was cleaned for me as well! Thank you guys so much! read more

I don't normally write reviews (this is my 2nd) but ...if you are looking for a professional, trustworthy and high quality auto body repair shop, Santa Clara Autocare is the place to go. My Tesla Model 3 was hit (while parked) and incurred damage to the passenger side rear wheel panel and this was the first time I dealt with having to get vehicle repairs done. John walked me through the process, my vehicle was examined and he worked directly with my insurance company on additional supplements. He kept me updated during every step of the process, explained the details of what was being done, the progress and made me feel confident in the repairs. His team even uncovered damage to my bumper from just a visual inspection would not have found. The "blending" (yes a new term explained to me) of the repaired areas to the rest of the vehicle was seamless. Truly an amazing job. It's difficult (as a woman) to obtain services (in certain industries) where you feel like you are not being taken advantage of. Go to a place you can trust. Go to Santa Clara Autocare. You won't be disappointed. read more

I was rear ended couple weeks ago, and I was recommended by a friend to go to Santa Clara Auto Care. The owner Dennis Soller was very helpful with everything.

Thank you all for your hard work. read more

Went to the Santa Clara Autocare to install the brake pedal cover, original BMW accessory. The first time, they didn't do it right. The cover was tilted. I went back right away. They adjusted it a little bit. The technician said I can come back later and they would fix it if I am not satisfied. I went back several days later. Dennis said he would fix it. The result was perfect. They even used the lever to make sure it's straight. This is what I called an above and beyond customer service. I would recommend anyone this shop. read more

Dennis and his boys are amazing!! They did a fantastic job with my girl's Honda Civic. Front bumper and grill was all mess and I had feeling it will never get fixed without spending big money. But Dennis proved it all wrong. He will be very honest with you on the quote and esp what is worth spending and fixing. He will keep you informed on current status. If there is a possibility of certain part would be reused rather than replacing altogether, be assured of getting your money back on replacement cost. Hands down this is honest business place with best craftsmanship. read more

I had been coming to Dennis for the past 13-15 yrs. All my friends and family come to him for any kind of collision or body work. We had been very fortunate we have someone like Dennis who is TRUSTWORTHY. Because you really can't tell what they do with your car when its at the shop, all you can do is trust them. This is where so many people get duped and end up paying more for what they thought would cost less. Another is if you have a luxury car it is scary to bring it to just any shop. I had been in a number of collisions from cars I've had in the past to the one I have now : first was my 1997 MB C280, then my 2002 BMW M3, and lately my 2008 Porsche Targa 4S. They had all been fixed here and THEY WERE ALL PUT BACK TO PRISTINE CONDITION read more

I found these guys via Yelp and approached them to fix a dent on my car door without going for the whole door replacement. Dennis was very easy to work with. He understood my ask, taken up the repair job and have done a meticulous job. Thank you Dennis! read more

My husband dealt with Dennis and his shop before, and he sent me to Santa Clara Autocare when I got scuff marks on the side of my new Lexus NX. Dennis not only got that job done fast and good, but he also noticed long crack on my windshield. He asked me if I want that to be replaced too, and gave me a very good quote. Both got done fast and right. And also my car came back to me shiny, clean and good smelling. I hope I don't need to go back with any car ssue soon, but if I have to go - I will go to Dennis again. He's also great with communicaation: gives you all details, quotes and updates via text. read more

I brought my car here recently for two occasions. In March of 2018, my 2006 Lexus RX 400h was broken into and my passenger glass was broken. My insurance provider was going to take awhile until they can do it, and when I called the owner, Dennis Soller, he said that he could do it same day I called him. The car was done at the same day and he even let me borrow a loaner car available. Their pricing was competitive and affordable matched with quality service. My car looked brand new after getting fixed. The other occasion was on May 2018, My 2006 Jeep Liberty needed a Windshield replacement. He fixed it same day for me, and he gave a great price for getting it fixed. Dennis Soller is a person that I trust and he is a very honest person and business owner. read more

My children and I were recently involved in a car accident. My Toyota Sienna was towed there to do the estimate of repairs. Dennis (the owner) kept me informed throughout the entire process. Unfortunately my van was deemed a total loss. When I went to clear out my van Dennis was very accomodating to help me anywhere he could. Crying and all he was very understanding on how emotional the entire event was. I am definitely recommending Santa Clara Autocare to anyone who is in need of a body shop. read more

Dennis and his team are artists. I attached a whole bunch of pictures after the repair, and I also put some pictures from the accident. I love this car. I'm 21 and I've been saving for this car since I wast 18 so I was really hurt when it happened. The frame was bent and there was so much damage from the impact. I got hit from my left, and the damage went all the wait time the right. Dennis worked with me to get my car back on time, looking perfect, and allowing me to add a few things I wanted. All in all, the process went smooth and I was very happy with the results read more

However, Santa Clara Autocare was fantastic to work with. Dennis, the owner of the shop, is a true professional. He took time to discuss what the problems were, the work needed, fair pricing, and made sure that I was satisfied with the work and if there was any concerns with the repairs to bring it in. All his employees seemed courteous and helpful as well. And I have been going to this shop over 22 years now. I wouldn't hesitate to take my car there again and will do so when I need auto body repair. Had 3 cars done within this month and all of them has been fixed within a week. Cannot beat that service. FYI this place is a AUTO BODY SHOP not a AUTO Repair. read more

I recently got in a accident, my whole front end was damaged in the collision. My cousin referred this shop to me, telling me that they fixed his car multiple times and did a fantastic job on it. So I took a chance and went ahead and took my BMW M3. I was a little skeptical at first because I want to make sure my M3 will be fixed and back to normal. So I contacted Dennis, the owner, and told him my situation that I recently got to an accident. Dennis told me to come in so he can take a look at my car. Dennis was really approachable and very friendly. He explained to me the whole process with insurance and everything. I told him if he could actually replace everything rather than repairing the parts and he suggested what would be the best way and explained why. He was very knowledgable, as this was not my first accident, and he was blunt about pricing and helping me get the best overall service. My car was in there for a 2 weeks and he would keep in contact with me and even send me pictures of the process. Which I really love because that shows me how much he cares about me and my car. He invites me to take a look at the car explaining the details on what he will do and was very helpful in explaining the whole process. After a few weeks, I got my car back and I was more than happy, not only because I got it back but the car even looks cleaner than previous. (I originally bought the car with a couple paint damage on the hood and bumper) My car was 100 percent back to normal, and Dennis and his shop did an amazing job, my car being a BMW M3 I had to make sure it's 100 percent done correctly. I would highly recommend this shop, I actually referred my friend who got in an accident a week after mine. And Dennis helped him out as well. read more

I can't ask for more how friendly and helpful all the staff here. I've been going to this shop for inquiries, suggestions and advices about cars but never had actual car repair. The owner/manager Dennis is very approachable, helpful and friendly not only that he will treat you like a family. First week of this month, I called my insurance about my hit and run of my 2012 FJ Cruiser. They set up an appointment for the adjuster and they asked me if I want to have my own body repair shop for my car. I said "yes", and I told them I will bring my car at the Santa Clara Auto Care, as soon as they will give me all the paper works. After that, I went straight to Santa Clara Auto Care to give all the details to Dennis about what the adjuster told me about my car. Since this is my first time to get involved into insurance-body repair shop. Dennis help me a lot, because they are some damages on my car that the adjuster didn't add on the list. I was very thankful that I choose this shop not only because they are very helpful and friendly but I trust them that they will take care of my car. August 19, 2019 when I dropped off my car. I was very confident that my car is in good hands. A week after, I got a call from Dennis that they approved some of the parts that the adjuster didn't add in. Dennis did all the works thru my insurance about the supplements of my car. Today (August 31, 2019) my car is all done. Looking like a brand new FJ Cruiser again. I couldn't thank enough Dennis and the crew for a job well done for my car. I highly recommend Santa Clara Auto Care for your car. read more

I would high recommend going to Dennis! I brought my car in after I got into a collision, and he helped me throughout the entire process. He was the only person that was in contact with my insurance, and he always kept me updated. Whether it was from what needed to be fixed, what my insurance said and all so on. Dennis made the entire experience for me great and comfortable. He showed that he truly cared that my car would be back to 100% at the end of it all. Communicating with him was super easy too, he was just a text away and he would respond quickly. Dennis would always contact you first and you're always kept in the loop with whats going on so that made it super easy for me. If you want great customer service and a great looking car at the end then I would highly recommend going to him and no one else! read more

Dennis and Santa Clara Autocare are fantastic - I contacted them due to other positive online reviews. Those reviews were on point. I had front end and roof damage from an accident on my 2001 civic; car was low miles so I wanted to save it. Their price was lower than others AND did a fantastic job. Dennis was very responsive and honest and worked with me to keep cost down (like telling me that if I could remove the headliner myself and if I could source a straight hood myself at a junk lot - I could cut costs even more). Lower cost, fantastic work, great customer service - you have got to check them out for their services! read more

Dennis did an amazing job on our car repair. I chose him by following the suggestion from yelp and Google and it did not let me down. He's detail oriented and pay attention to every little thing.

I will strongly recommend him to anyone who's looking for help on their car. read more
