*Honest, Trustworthy, and Skilled.* I scraped the whole side of my car. Two other shops told me $2500-$3500 to repair, plus they'd have to keep my car for 1-2 weeks. Wyndmoor Auto and Collision took out the paint scratches for $55, including small nicks. Surface looks like new. There are some very, very small dents (if you look carefully) that they offered to take out for $800 (adjust the aluminum sheet, sand, re-prime, paint) - multiples cheaper than the others. They also told me the work was not necessary. Throughout, they were just super clear communicators, honest to the core, and skilled. It felt like they were on my side. I am a customer for life.

I have brought my Ford Transit to them in the past several times with great success. First time was a collision and they had it looking like it was right off the lot. They noticed the subframe was rusting out and had that changed out successfully as well. I was really happy that I found a shop in the area that worked on larger framed vehicles that wouldn't fit on the liftss of many other auto shops. I had experienced an exhaust manifold issue that needed to be taken care of. Of course, my first instinct was to bring it to them. The year prior to bringing it in, they had given me a quote for $1,200. Almost a year had passed. Before moving to New York I wanted to get this settled to be worry free. Before getting ready to drop it off, I spoke with the receptionist who gave me information that the work would take a week, the old quote had expired and that the new quote is now $3,200. Thinking that this was a huge increase in price but the work still needed to be done, I agreed to drop it off. As I didn't need the vehicle anytime soon I told them to take their time but I would need it back in 2 weeks. As that time approached, I reached out to them and they said that it was not ready and that they ran into some problems that was going to take more time and accrue more of a cost. I asked if I could back out of the work as I needed the van back but it was already disassemble the needed to be followed through with work. I even desperately asked if they purchased vehicles. After numerous followup calls, I was told that the van was finally ready to be picked up after a month and a half in the shop. By this time I needed to complete my move up to New York and I ended up needing to juggle my moving schedule around and a 6 hour trip back to Philly just to retrieve my van after the work was complete. The bill had jumped up over $5,400. The van was running perfectly fine out of the shop but I experienced a check engine light on my 6 hour route back to NY. A screw had succumbed to rust and fallen out of a cylinder coil. A problem I have not experienced before bringing in to the shop. I got it repaired up here and informed Wyndmoor Auto to reimberse the further work. They said it was unrelated which could very well be the case but it seemed likely that something had happened during the work. Regardless of this situation, the original job was supposed to be $4,200 less and 5 weeks faster based on the information I was given by them before dropping it off. I also had to work around not having that vehicle by renting out other vehicles and making an additional trip down to Philadelphia to retrieve my van. All of this cost me much more and used up a lot of time. The mechanic told me if he knew it was going to be that much work he wouldn't have taken on the job. I'm sure that this is a learning lesson for both parties and it may very well be an outlier to the type of work they typically provide but I can't in good faith recommend this shop based off the amount of money I lost with this establishment.
