My experience with Sip Autobody has been extremely disappointing, frustrating, and unsafe. Instead of properly fixing my car after an accident, their poor handling caused even more problems than I had before. Here is the sequence of events: Condition Before Repair After the accident, my car only had a broken bumper. I drove the car for 7 days without any issues before sending it to Sip Autobody. First Handover – Car Was Dead On the very first day Sip Autobody “fixed” the car and handed it back, the car was completely dead. The key fob did not work; owner Dio Sing had to use the manual key to open the door. He then used a jumper to start the car in the autobody yard. This was the very first sign that their repair work had damaged the electrical/programming system. Headlight Replacement Issue Sip Autobody replaced my original headlight with a cheap generic/aftermarket headlight without telling me. I had to go back four times complaining about lighting issues before they admitted to using the wrong part. Instead of fixing it, they kept “treating the symptoms” rather than the root cause. Eventually, Dio Sing took the car to a Honda service center over five times, and only then did they finally install an original headlight. New Safety Problems After Repairs After Sip Autobody’s work, my car developed serious, dangerous problems that never existed before: Brakes became very hard when starting. Steering sometimes failed. Brake Hold stopped working. More than 15 warning messages appeared on the dashboard. These issues made me feel unsafe driving the car. Lack of Proper Tools & Responsibility Sip Autobody does not have scanners or proper diagnostic tools to check electrical and mechanical systems. Every time there was a problem, I had to go to the Honda dealer at my own expense. Instead of coordinating with the insurance company, Sip Autobody avoided responsibility, leaving me stuck between insurance and the dealer. Insurance Coordination Failure The insurance of the at-fault driver told me: “Diagnose and fix at your own expense and send us the invoice.” The Honda dealer clearly said: Sip Autobody should have communicated with the insurance and sent the car to the dealer for proper repair, since the accident case already confirmed the other driver’s fault. Instead, Sip Autobody kept the car, failed to fix it properly, and caused months of delays and stress. Life Impact It has been over 2 months since the accident, and I am still dealing with problems caused by Sip Autobody. My work performance has suffered, and I’ve wasted countless hours chasing repairs and bearing unnecessary costs. Conclusion Sip Autobody’s handling of my car was unprofessional, careless, and unsafe: They returned my car dead on the very first day. They replaced original parts with generic ones without consent. They failed to address the root cause of problems and created new dangerous issues with brakes, steering, and programming. They avoided insurance coordination, leaving me to pay dealers out-of-pocket. They have no proper diagnostic tools and are not qualified to handle accident-related repairs. What began as a simple bumper repair turned into an ongoing nightmare of electrical, braking, and steering failures. Their negligence has compromised my safety and caused severe stress, expenses, and disruption in my daily life. I strongly advise others to avoid Sip Autobody for accident repairs.

I was pleasantly surprised by how simple and quick it was to get my car repaired locally after the accident. From dropping it off on Monday to picking it up Friday afternoon, the turnaround was impressive. They even took care of the insurance check issue by coordinating directly with the company. It was a surprisingly easy experience overall

Brought my new 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe to Sip Auto Body to repair some damage to the rear side for the car. Owner Mike handled the intake efficiently—honest assessment, fair quote, and a realistic timeline, all without any pressure tactics. The results speak volumes: The damage was restored to OEM quality, with a flawless color match that blends seamlessly under streetlights or sun. No rattles, no uneven gaps—drives like it just rolled off the lot. Text updates were prompt and precise, and pickup came with a complimentary wash and tire pressure check. Competitive pricing rounded out a seamless experience. For body work on a premium SUV like the Santa Fe, Sip sets the benchmark. Solid choice; I’ll use them again.
