    They removed parts that did not need to be removed. The manager got upset when I told him the door closed perfectly when it was towed in.

    As an avid car builder, a former collision centers/body shop for 20 years, and belonging to a prestigious car club, I have never experienced an unprofessional collision center as bad as World Auto Body in my life!!. I don't do Yelp! I never do complaints as this is my first time ever, so this goes to show how bad they are. They worked on parts that had no purpose being worked on like my door and driver side headlight that was included in the estimate. It was not part of the accident! (My door closed perfectly because it was untouched! I have photos to verify it!) They left my window down in my truck, letting water and rain get inside and gave an estimate that's very inflated! So much I, as a former adjuster/estimator cannot figure out how they came to the price which has been verified and supported by other professional collision centers. The manager was very rude and very unprofessional. He threatened me all because I complained about my door being taken apart. When I asked him if they could put it back together he said, "We're not doing s***!!!", all because I told him the door was not damaged. He walked towards me in a threatening matter and threw me off the property for saying he was being unprofessional!! Again I have never dealt with unprofessionalism on this level in my 50 years of living so do not take your car here or you're gonna get burned by over inflated prices, your vehicle will be left unattended with windows down with no care in the world, and they will include parts and labor prices for things that aren't needed! So, please be aware and look into other shops before you go there! (I wouldn't go there PERIOD if I was you!). If your insurance company refers them, tell them NO THANK YOU and mention this review! I'm willing to speak to them on your behalf! P.S. They want to charge me a fee for taking the truck apart including the door they had no reason to take apart! BEWARE!!!

    This is my second time using World Auto Body on Marshall in El Cajon. Attached are two photos of my vehicle before and after repairs. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and the work was completed a week ahead of schedule. Thanks to Edgar and the techs who completed the repairs. Robert

    The rust repairs on my motorhome. Other auto body shops turned down the job. Great communication.

    Expect your vehicle to to be cleaned out of ANY valuables when these guys tow your car, twice now…read morethey've towed my wrecked cars and they steal everything of value, they have free pass to do so. It says all over their yard 'not responsible for loss or theft'. These jerks just rip you off, period.

    A scammer and a liar: 5 lies in 10 minutes…read more After being out of town for three weeks, I came home to a dead battery in my 2024 Accord. I called AAA for a jump start, and Jonathan's towing came out to my house. He tested the battery and said it was beyond saving, and offered to sell me one of his batteries. When I said my car was still under warranty and I would have Honda replace it, he told me batteries are not covered under new car warranties. In that case I said I would drive my car to Walmart and check the warranty while my car idled in the parking lot. If it was not covered, I would buy a new battery from Walmart. He then said Walmart would sell me a new battery, but not install it. When I said to jumpstart my car and I would work out the details later, he once again tried to sell me one of his batteries. He then hooked up some cables to the car, and "tried" to start it, but said the battery was so far gone it could not even be jump started. I then asked to be towed to the dealership, but he said AAA did not allow towing for just a dead battery so my only real option was purchasing his battery. I sent him on his way and called AAA again. 1. AAA said of course they would tow a car if need be. 2. They sent out a new company who easily jump started the car. 3. I drove it to the dealership who confirmed that if the battery was ruined, they would replace it at no charge. 4.They did a complete test on the battery and it passed with flying colors. It has been driving great since then. 5. And of course, yes, Walmart would have installed the battery if I had needed it.
