Pete and his crew have worked on 3 of my cars now, and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Testa is 5 star and Pete is someone I've grown to trust. He always takes good care of his customers and works in timely way. My car looks like new... the work is perfect, and it had quite a bit wrong when it went in. You can't go wrong at this facility. read more

The service was quick and my car was out a day ahead of schedule. The pickup service to the rental car company was fast and convenient too. Customer service was great. Getting through to a real person was easy. My insurance paid for body work so I can't comment much on the price. read more

This shop is one of the best shops in San Jose that I know anyone that comes here gets treated like family, Pete made sure my vehicle was back to normal and like my accident never happened. I highly suggest this body shop due to its outstanding service and customer service Thanks Pete you the man !!!! read more

Testa's Auto Body - Vehicle repair - Auto Repair Near Me - San Jose, California

Testa's Auto Body is a family owned business that does high quality work, pays great attention to detail in their repairs and are really easy to work with. Pete and John (Testa)worked quickly to repair front end damage on my daughter's Toyota a few years back and it was a stellar experience. Last week ( Jan 14, 2025), I dropped off my 2022 Ford Maverick , which required some front end repair resulting from a minor accident. Again, working with John and Pete Testa to get the repair complete was simple. I got the car back a couple days early and they did a perfect repair and detailed my whole truck. I am extremely happy I took my truck to Testal auto body..they are without doubt one, if not the best, auto body shop in the san jose area and the only shop I will use for auto paint and body repairs - A+! read more

My wife's SUV had some damage on the rear bumper that needed to be fixed. I was referred to Testa's from a friend whom has taken all their cars here in the past for work, and they mentioned great things about them. From the initial calls and quotes to the finished product, the whole process was smooth and easy, and the work was top notch. I even noticed some very minor imperfections after we picked up the car, and Pete said no problem and to bring the car by and they will touch it up for free. They even added some extra decal tape that was coming off, no charge as well. All done in 12 minutes. I couldn't agree more with my friend as this is a fantastic auto body shop with high level customer service, top notch quality work, and very easy and effortless to work with. I'd recommend them to anyone that needs to get auto body work done. read more

I had a fender bender, the curse of a new car. Pete and his team did a wonderful job, bringing my new baby back to factory specs. I would highly recommend them. Professional, Straight forward, reasonable, and efficient. read more

Fantastic. Honest man doing honest work. My mother's vehicle got rear ended and AAA insurance suggested that we get our vehicle repaired at Testa's Auto Body. This business is ran by a man named Peter and this guy is on his A game when it comes to the customer's experience. Peter was very nice, quickly responsive, and went the extra mile to clean our vehicle after servicing it when he was not obligated to! All on top of doing a great job on the initial task. Bonus points, our car was ready to be picked up 2 days before it's estimated date. Definitely bringing my business back to Testa's whenever I may need my car repaired in the future. read more

My vehicle was taken here by triple a after my car was broken into and stolen. They repaired it quicker than they estimated.

Amazing. Pete is just a great guy. I had just finished a complete restoration on a 1961 Pontiac Ventura when I got hit and completly removed my drivers side door and creased my front fender and moulding. Pete returned my car and I was completely floored. It looked better than when I bought it to him. I know that sounds like BS but I'm telling you the work was amazing. Pete is an artist. read more

This review is long overdue. I had some dings on my bumper and gravel dings on my hood that I had been wanting fixed for awhile. Thanks to the recommendation from a friend and fellow Yelpers - I found this place. They were very prompt with returning my phone call and arranging a time for me to have them look at my car to give me an estimate. I LOVE how it turned out - my pictures don't show how good it looks - but take my word for it - money well spent! read more

I had some damage to my car right before Christmas. I waited for my insurance and the other party's insurance to sort out my claim. My adjuster asked me whether I wanted a top rated shop or a closer shop to do the repairs. I'm glad I chose a top rated auto body shop. They are part of AAA Direct Network of approved shops. Peter and John were very friendly. I love how my car turned out. Peter was able to have Hertz pick me up from the shop to get my car rental while they repaired my car. I dropped it off on a Wednesday and the repair was done by Friday. read more

Got everything done within one weekend. Would come back for other car needs. Would recommend for anyone looking for an auto body shop. read more

The man is as good as his word. Testa's was on time , courteous and respectful. Thank you sir.

I was referred to Testa's by AAA after my car was hit & run while parked. My car's entire rear bumper needed replacing. I was given an estimate of 3 days, but they finished early in 2 days. Very high quality job, paint color was matched perfectly, and it looked as if I had never been hit. As an added bonus, they touched up a few other scratches I had on the hood for free. Overall, great experience, definitely recommend going here if you need body/paint repairs done. read more

Quality! Good service, faster than I expected, knowledgeable . I would recommend anyone needing their car repaired.

AAA sent me here and I had the best experience of all time. The family owned business of 2 brothers was professional with excellent customer service. My car looks like it did the day I drove it off the lot. They finished my car in 24 hours when a weeks time would have been the estimate. They were wonderful and they stand behind their service. I would use their services again. Highly recommend. read more

I took my car to get fixed and they took a day, they called me that the car was ready faster than I expected it. I definitely recommend this place. read more

I was given several places to go from AAA to have my car fixed and chose Testa's because it was close to my house. I am SO happy I did. The professionalism and kindness that I received from Pete and his staff was so Awesome. I will now come here without a referral from AAA and make sure to tell all my friends about how Amazing this place is too. Thank you Peter! read more

I only found this shop when they were recommended by my insurance, but after a wonderful experience I'll be coming here for everything I can from now on! The body work they did turned out absolutely flawless - you can't even tell the entire tailgate and surrounding panels were smashed in and replaced! I returned once for what turned out to be a user-error issue and they were so kind about explaining what button I had turned on by accident and how to fix it. Every time I contacted them throughout the repair process, they were so friendly and happy to explain what was going on; they even called my insurance for me when the insurance gave me vague answers. They were upfront about lead time on parts and even checked while I waited to make sure I didn't have too long a wait for parts after dropping off my car. In the midst of the stressful event of a car accident, these guys were calming and knowledgeable. All in all an exceptional experience - they're everything there is to love about a family business and I'm so happy to have found them! read more

These guys are great. After dealing with several different body shops whore just looking to do the minimum for the max cost and get you out, especially if they suspect you wouldn't know better, THIS SHOP IS DIFFERENT. Different cultures. They actually care about their customers and our cars--such a nice, comforting feeling. They were even able to achieve something with my 20 year old Z3 that the last 2 shops haven't. They really go the extra mile. Really appreciate these guys! read more

I brought my dad's BMW in last year for repair after an accident and I am very satisfied with the work that was done. Pete was very easy to communicate with and provided me with updates throughout the process. I was also impressed by the turnaround and appreciated that Pete offered for us to bring the car back if my dad wasn't pleased with the grill color we had chosen, which he ended up loving! Would definitely bring our car here should we need it in the future! Highly recommend! read more

I absolutely loved this place. Pete was so nice! My car looks as good as new! I highly recommend Testa's Auto Body.

My mother van was hit and this shop was recommended by the insurance AAA. Pete was very nice and went out of his way in many areas, and he and his crew did such a wonderful job! Preciously the van was in a different Auto Body Shop and Testa's Auto Body fixed different spot where the previous body shop did not. Since it has been awhile since the van had been waxed Pete recommended that also to be done, and thought that would make since so everything would look amazing! Pete really cared about the overall quality of there work and when the van came out to me it looked like brand new! Great job Pete! read more

I was very disappointed today when I went and met John, one of the employees there to perform a estimate for my vehicle.... John was very disrespectful, unprofessional and unwelcoming! when I 1st arrived, yet alone conversating with him he gave me no desire to trust him to leave my car there for repair! Hopefully the owners of this establishment will train him on how to treat customers with more respect and dignity. read more

Brought my car here from a suggestion from my insurance. I needed my bumper repaired. They made it so easy and fast! My car looks great! Friendly staff! read more

This is the best bOdy shop ive been to. They've worked on my cars before. I keep coming back to them.

The service and quality of the repair they did to my Subaru Forester was excellent! Pete was always in contact with me giving me updates and following up with AAA claims to solve everything. read more

This is the second time have taken my car to Testa's and again it was a great experience. My wheel was scratched and I had two dents on my fender. They did the job overnight and it looks like new. As I said in my previous review, they washed the car and cleaned the inside, too. Great customer service. Peter took good care of me. I would highly recommend Testa's to anyone. Carolyn A. read more

AAA referred me to Testa's Auto Body upon my car falling victim to a hit and run. Pete is awesome. He's very helpful and his service skills extend further than expected. He used some of the extra paint from my repair to fill in scratches. Hopefully I don't find myself frequenting the repair shop but if I need to, he's location will be my go-to. Also, my car was in and out incredibly quick as well. Thanks! read more

This was one of the shops on the AAA list and it was not the only top company I could have went with. After looking at the reviews on yelp it convinced me to go with this shop. Pete did a great job on my car. He helped make the whole claim process easier. I would recommend this shop to any of my friends that needed work done on their cars. read more

I love these guys! I had an unusual situation. I was rear-ended and needed a new bumper. They did a beautiful job! It looked like new and they completed the job very quickly. One week later to the day I picked it up, I was rear-ended on the freeway again. I was heart broken. The bumper wasn't even dirt yet. This time it was really bad. They not only did a beautiful job as they had before, they saved my car from being totaled. I can't thank them enough for all of their help. They are the epitome of customer service. I wish I could find more kinds of companies who offer this kind of workmanship and service. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Thanks again to Pete, John and the Crew. You're the best! read more

As always john and peter delivered quality work in a beyond timely manner. Honest, clean, and solid work. read more

I went to Testa to have some damage on my bumper fixed. They were very friendly, provided me with a reasonable quote, and were timely with the repairs. They did such a nice job- my car looks brand new now! I will definitely go back to Testa if I need repairs again. I highly recommend this place! read more

I chat a lot. I am a 'chatter'. Yup. I ask a lot of questions, and I take note. I found out great stuff about this place while having my care repaired from a major "T-bone" side collision to my 2003 pearl white vehicle. The most honest guys I have met... I love them, my husband loves them! Apparently the "Brothers Testa" took over family business from their pop sometime in the late 80's - and apparently have carried on the tradition of 'fine Italian craftsmanship'. These guys are wizards, having been at it for so long I guess (this is attractive to me). My car is pearl white - one of the more difficult colors to match (I never would've purchased that color new, but - a used car at a good deal)... but when the repair was done - the paint blended SO well that no one can tell where the blended PEARL paint is!! Craftsmanship at it's finest. They handled EVERYTHING even my insurance claim. I paid my deductible, they did ALL the rest. I would go to them again, but hopefully I won't need to! read more

My first experience with Testa's was about a decade ago ago when I worked for a rental car company. The owners, Pete and John, are the experts who handle everything from start to finish when your car is in need of repairs. TRUE PROFESSIONALISM WITH OUTSTANDING AND FAST SERVICE. This year, I took my wife's 2010 TSX to them after someone had collided into it while it was parked. The other person's insurance paid for it and Pete was able to bill the insurance company directly. The damage was minor but it only took a few days and I got it back earlier than expected. While the car was there, I decided to also replace a damaged tail lamp that I caused. Pete charged me the cost price for an original Acura part. Months later, the part had a defective gasket and water had seeped into it. After calling Pete, he ordered another lamp which was covered under the manufacturers warranty. I brought it in and Pete took care of it while I waited. In April 2009, I took my 2002 Escalade to have the grill painted to color match the rest of the vehicle. It was dull and gray before that. The finish is still immaculate to date. Recently, I bought a center consule lock from GM for the Caddy and figured I could replace it myself. Well, I was wrong! After unscrewing the console, a spring popped out and after several hours of trying to piece the thing back together, I gave up. I told Pete about it and he told me just bring it in. Pete looked at it and the task was done in less than an hour. Pete didn't even charge me a single penny for his time. Thanks Pete! 5 star service all the way!! Now I just need to find a place for service on my Harley. read more

Pete was awesome! Quick and excellent service. Had my front bumper replaced and ready ahead of scheduled time. Looks like a new truck!

I had autobody work done here on my Lexus. I had chosen it because of the reviews and location. You can determine if you want to bring your car here. Customer service, they way they address you and talk to you are fine, hence 2 stars. The real issue that I had was that there were issues with the repair work itself. 1. paint run/pool marks near the door handle. 2. Navigation screen scratched 3. Allowed battery to die (causing lights to come on), my battery no longer charged properly and had to replace it (thankfully it was still under warranty). read more

My family have been customers since the 1970s. This is a family business. Peter and John show great attention to detail and pride in their master craftsmanship skills. My father, of blessed memory, used to refer to Mr. Testa as the Michelangelo of Auto Body. We would never consider going any place else. read more

Hi, One of the most honest person I ever met in my Life. If you are in trouble please visit him. My Nissan altima's bumper came out. I called the dealer and he quoted huge amount. But then I found about Pete from some other friend of mine. And I must say that I am very impressed by Pete's honesty and professionalism. God bless him read more

My son's car was going to need more than a bit of work after he was in a single car accident on a slippery Hwy 17 after the first rainy night of the season. Our insurance company, AAA, gave us a list of body shops to take it to, and after reading reviews on Yelp of a few of those places, we decided on Testa's. So glad we did!!! Although the car was deemed totaled by AAA, we couldn't be happier with the level of care, compassion and professionalism we experienced with Pete. He helped us through the process with such kindness, and as as a mom, I so appreciated how he helped my son understand the reason why his beloved first car was being totaled. We didn't use Testa's repair services, but based on our experience with Pete, if we ever do need it, no doubt where we will go! Thank you again, Pete. Your customer service is beyond amazing, which is a rare thing in this day and age. read more
