This place was very quick and effective. The staff was friendly and attentive to me and my car. They ordered me a rental and explained every detail so I could understand. The older gentleman who helped me was very friendly and helped me a lot.
Amazing customer service I was assisted with everything I needed for service will recommend to family & friends.
My third time at CarStar in East Hartford. JP is such a professional and has exceptional customer service skills. Very knowledgeable and informative, and genuinely a really nice guy. The quality is always excellent. I highly recommend these guys in East Hartford. Many thanks!
My vehicle was involved in a hit and run, so my insurance provided me with various options for the repair. I had a closer location to choose from, however, the reviews did not convinced me that it was going to be a good place for me. I started my research and although CARSTAR East Hartford was about 30 minutes for me, I decided to bring my car here thanks to the great reviews.And they were not wrong. JP and Dieb are very personable. The service was phenomenal and very quick (it only took like 3 days to repair the whole front of my vehicle). I received daily messages/calls with the progress of the repair which is helpful to have an idea and be able to plan ahead! When I picked up my vehicle, JP walked me through everything as he explained the work done line by line as stated in the receipt/bill.I am very grateful for the service and the easy process. Also they make it easy with the rental process as they make sure the vehicle is there for you when you leave your vehicle for repair.Thank you!!!Liz
CARSTAR East Hartford has fabulous Customer Service. I submitted photos of the damage on my car late in the evening and by 10:30 the next day a representative of CARSTAR was on the phone with me setting up the schedule for my repair . As it was an insurance claim I knew I was responsible for the $500 Deductible so I did not need more of an estimate as they were an approved Facility by State Farm .CARSTAR communicated with me by text and phone several times before my appointment.After I dropped my car off for repairs I received daily updates on the status of the repairs to my car.I picked up my car today and the repairs to my car were perfect ! You would never know there had been damage to the rear of my car . In addition the inside had been detailed.I will definitely recommend CARSTAR to everyone. They receive a perfect score from me ! They met and exceeded my expectations !
My insurance company recommended this shop for a covered repair. They kept me updated via text and phone calls the entire time and even arranged to have the rental car company pick me up at the shop and return my rental at the end. They also billed my insurance directly and handled all the paperwork. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
My first time using this service and it was great. Very professional. Reasonable price and the work done on my car was very good. Recommend this place to everyone!
Great group of people to work with. Very professional and courteous. Took care of all of my requests. Thank you allRonnie B
I basically in and out once insurance company gave the go ahead the receptionist Nicole was friendly and the guy with the ponytail was respectful taking the time to give details of the process they would take and he did so without talking down to me. Thanks to all the staff at CarStar
All staff was awesome, they explained everything thoroughly and kept me updated throughout the process.
The visit was short.They were precise and on point.Vehicle repair was completed earlier than the ETC.Customer service - great.They do great feedback, and give you time for your input.I am pleased with my service received.I am a 😊 customer.
Tpo notch service from start-to-finish. I was greeted by “JP” who walked me through the entire process, after having my auto significantly damaged by a driver who had left the scene.Service and repair were prompt and beautifully performed. I was kept apprised of the progress of my repair over the 10 days. Upon retrieving my car today, “Diep” greeted me warmly and sent me on my way!Would absolutely recommend this body shop for people in search of outstanding service by friendly and sincere staff.
The work process was well explained and executed!!’
These people do a great job, and send the car back looking brand new. This the second time I have used them, and are very satisfied with their work.
Carstar was professional and efficient from start to finish. JP was awesome and friendly. The whole passenger side of my truck had to be replaced due to a accident. The paint matches and looks great. My car also rides good. I would definitely recommend their services.
CARSTAR of East Hartford was the right place for me to bring my SUV after some one hit my rear bumper. From the first day I met the young lady there named Deb. I felt at ease knowing my suv would be in good hand. She was very professional and knowledgeable and funny. I felt great, the process of taking care of the customer was excellent. Once I dropped my suv off there was a rental car waiting for me. As far as my rear bumper being repaired it looked GREAT excellent job I was so happy. All I can say is THANK YOU, THANK YOU to everyone at CARSTAR . To all my Facebook family and friends this definitely is the place to go.
I could not be happier with their service and results. My vehicle was involved in a rear end crash. They kept me informed through every step of the process either through phone calls or text messages. They did an awesome job and ahead of the time they originally estimated.
WITH ALL DUE RESPECT NOBODY DO BUSINESS WITH THESE GUYS AND HERE’S WHY:So I want to make this very clear I will not be returning my vehicle back to you guys and I will be writing a very unpleasant review and will be contacting my lawyer and see what steps I should take with this whole incident because my car is far from normal it does not drive how it was prior to my car accident I was driving home late from work today and it felt very unsafe and the car’s steering wheel was pulling itself and definitely felt like the whole suspension was going to come off the car was very wobbly on straight roads you guys have gave me the run around this past week and mind you you guys had two weeks to fix me car and then come up with the rim issue a day before the car is suppose to be ready and then it gets pushed back why wait till last minute? And then not even update me until I have to physically call myself now this happens I have to take care of the tpms issue on my car myself because it couldn’t get done by 12pm as promised because Phil tells me JP went home early that he “wasn’t feeling well” then when I go and pick up my car yesterday you guys claim to have inspected it inside and out and was 100% problem free I know not one of you guys test driven it because if you guys did you would’ve noticed the pulling issue and how unsafe it is to drive now because of this I need to have time off from work to start looking for another car to finance because this car should’ve been totaled in the first place you guys even said it the first time when you did a first estimate with the damages and total amount it would have costed to repair it would’ve been without a doubt totaled then after that a few days later I call and you take back your first statement and say oh it’s fixable why? because Esurance told you guys it’s fine? Then the final cost of everything is over $7000 and it’s still not totaled? You guys couldn’t even get that number until after you finished my car (which by the way my car still isn’t fixed) which isn’t right if you guys did a deep check and took the time in the beginning you would’ve had that correct amount estimate sooner and it would make sense for it to be totaled I will not take my car back to you guys and someone will definitely be in touch with you guys because this is unacceptable you tell me today when I call you are short staffed and I can’t bring it Monday instead Thursday? That’s not my problem I have a job my car is priority because you guys failed to do it right the first time I don’t not trust you guys to ever touch my car again and I will make sure other people know never to do business with you guys. Also update today they promised me to cover the rental charge because I had to take it back twice to them because they failed to do their job correctly the first time so they told me to bring it back and they will take care of the rental fees come to find out they told hertz they will not be paying and hertz charged me bank $135 and then they lied saying I had the car for 2 days when I only had it for 1 day and when I call Carstar in the morning the first time I called a lady said Doug the owner is in a meeting to call back later and then when I call later another lady answers and tells me Doug is on vacation for a week really??? How convenient lol these guys are a joke and scam artists I will never ever bring my car to them again and recommend nobody else do business with these guys they try to use covid as a excuse to say they are busy and short staffed when it’s really false it seems like as soon as you report a issue to them on something they did wrong they go out their way to make sure you aren’t a priority anymore what a joke these guys are I hope they get shutdown.
The best place around! Especially how nice the paint job looks! I would definitely recommend them to my friends!
A great experience. My car was in an accident and had significant damage to multiple panels, lift gate and exhaust system. Estimate was done meticulously, quality work was performed, they communicated throughout the whole process and the car was completed ahead of time! Highly recommend!
Excellent customer service from the time I made my first phone call .All staff member is very professional and kind.Thank you JP and Deb for accommodating me!!! I will certainly recommend your business.
Best body shop I have ever worked with professional on time And great work I would recommend them to anybody
I got into a hit and run accident and had damage to my car that needed to be fixed. The insurance company coordinated the repairs with Carstar East Hartford and they did an outstanding job. The staff is friendly, professional, and helpful. They kept me updated throughout the process and finished my car by their estimate date. When I got the car back, the work was outstanding, and the car looks brand new. As a bonus they detailed the car and it smells and looks amazing inside as well! Hopefully I will never be in this situation again, however if I am, I will DEFINITELY go here again. I highly recommend that anyone who needs collision work done on their car works with Carstar East Hartford. You wont be disappointed.
May 2020 had my car detailed here. Everyone was very professional. My car (2011 Honda) was in need of a good cleaning, including mats, rugs, chrome, etc. This was the first time it has ever been detailed. I was very pleased with the result. The interior of the car is now spotless! It is in better shape than when I purchased it (used) about 2 years ago!! The dust and marks on the fabric, leather & rugs are all gone. Looks new inside!! The outside came out great, too. Very shiny. They did the trunk and also under the hood (again, made everything look new)! I will definitely bring my vehicle back to Carstar of E Hartford to be detailed!! Thanks!
I am really dissatisfied with the amount to money it cost to fix my car. My insurance was charged over Five thousand dollars for a dent in my trunk. That’s absurd. I do believe that fraud was committed on behalf of Car Star. I’ve been here numerous times and had no issues but this time, I’m very disappointed and I don’t think I’ll ever use them again for any of my needs.
Carstar did an amazing job fixing my headlight, grill, and my front bumper. Would always recommend them to anyone in need of body work and repair. They were super professional, fast and do quality work.
Awesome job done in 3 days for a rear bumper fender bender.
It was very convenient for me..close by didstance.
I was involved in a minor accident that left the front of my new car banged up a bit. My insurance company recommended CARSTAR to perform autobody work. The entire process was smooth from setting up an appointment to driving it back home looking brand new. Customer service was impeccable - highly recommend if you need autobody work done in the greater Hartford area. Good work!
Those guys are amazing and very efficient! They are also very caring and thoughtful. I can definitely appreciate good business! I truly appreciate you guys and will not hesitate to bring my car back to if any mishaps happens again!!! Thank you!!!
This review is just based on a phone call. I called to schedule an appointment for repair estimate on my car. The lady on the phone was polite, and was very honest. I was told if they are busy and wouldn’t be able to work on my car until 2-3 weeks later. I didn’t want to wait a long time to get my car repaired, so she saved me the time of going there for the repair estimate.
From start to end, was a great experience. They were able to finish with the repair to my left back side door early, so I got my car 2 days before the weekend! Everyone was very friendly and adhered to COVID-19 safety precautions. Not to mention, my car looked brand new! Thank you.
The communication was amazing with this place, they made fixing my vehicle simple and seamless and I couldn’t have asked for a better location!
2nd occurrence I had to use them following an accident. They provided the tow, repaired my car and returned it to me in immaculate condition. Excellent service!
I got my vehicle repaired here and I absolutely admire the customer service I received. JP was both understanding, he went above and beyond and the job was absolutely amazing! I would definitely recommend coming here. Their work is done with integrity and the pricing is affordable.
The work that was done on my car looks like my car was never hit every line matches up evenly. Although I would have loved to see the same quality of work done to my bumper but overall this was a good experience.
The quality of their professional work product is exceptional. They clean the car and treat the car as special.The quality of the people, how they treat the customers, their ease of connecting is what makes them more than a Star.A combination of exceptional work, service and personal skills makes Car Star a winning team. You have much to be proud if in this team!
Although I did not actually have any work done to a vehicle my vehicle was towed there after I had an accident I went in and looked at the car and ask questions and they were honest and straightforward about how much it would cost to repair. I appreciate that and if in the future I am in need of their services I will go there. When I looked online and when I talk to friends who lived in the East Hartford area they have heard of them and Ive heard nothing but positive from everybody Ive talked to
Excellent Service..They made the whole process painless and dotted all the is and crossed all the ts..Highly Recommend!!
Everything was excellent, and keep me informed of the process they was doing with my car.
They were super nice! They communicated very well and got the job done as well as cleaned my entire car inside and out😁😁
Carstar is the Best place to take you automobile 🚘 for anything needing anything done Ive known about this Company over 24yrs ago when I reside in Philadelphia they were the Best there as well Thank-you 😊
CARSTAR East Hartford was a pleasure to work with. I appreciate the friendly professional service, consistent updates, timely responses, and excellent work on my car- it is perfect! I also appreciate the full detail of the inside of the car prior to returning it to me. The inside has not looked as nice as it does now since I purchased the car! Thank you! I highly recommend CARSTAR East Hartford!
Every step of the way in repairing my damaged car was handled with efficiency and courtesy. I was kept informed of the progress being made and was delighted to hear that my car was ready four days earlier than predicted. The work done was superior.
Great repair services. I would highly recommend.
Very nice and helpful, good communication, and they even cleaned my car completely before I picked it up!
I had repairs on the body of my Impreza. They were friendly and kept me updated when repairs took longer than expected. They cleaned my car inside and out afterwards. Overall Im happy with the results and service.
These guys did a quality job!!! Efficient and reasonably priced. I would definitely use them again (but hope not to have an occasion to do so! ;))
My car looks great!
Very efficient called and texted with updates about my car they even had the rental car dropped off on site. Definitely would recommend
Wonderful people! Did such an amazing job!
CarStar is #1 in car repairs. Ive had my car fixed by them twice and I would recommend their services anytime!!! Thank you to all the employees there who are so professional and courteous.
I recently had my car fixed at Carstar after a hit and run. They did such a great job fixing my car that you would never know that it was in an accident. The staff there took care of my car from start to finish. They take pride in their work and they stand by the work they produce. I definitely would recommend this shop to anyone who needs a good and reliable auto body shop.
My car was brought here after an accident. They were nothing but fantastic through the entire process. They rushed to get my car fixed so I could take it on a scheduled vacation. Everyone I spoke to was extremely helpful and friendly. On top of everything they gave me fresh baked cookies when I picked up my car. 10/10 would recommend and use again.
Replaced a broken fog light
Best customer service ever. My car looks brand new then carstar went above and beyond by cleaning and detailing the inside of my car.
They were very nice people to deal with they gave me a date for my car to be done and I got a call ahead of time saying my car was done and come pick it up I would recommend anybody To them
All Staff were friendly and displayed great customer service. Lastly, I would like to say I was pleased with the results.
My car was in an accident when my insurance company asked me if I knew of a Auto Body Shop I told them Carstar in East Hartford, back in 2018 my son was in an accident and the guys at Carstar fixed my sons car and the out come was great. So I had them fix my car when I got the call from the gentleman that kept me informed about my car on a daily told me my car was ready for me to pick it up I was excited. I can tell you when I seen my car i wanted to cry of how happy I was to see my car look like new. These guys did an AWESOME job. Thank you guys so much for everything. I will definitely recommend the guys and females that works at Carstar In East Hartford very nice and friendly.
I had the best experience with Carstar. I would recommend them. They do there best to get the job done as fast as possible and correctly. I was very please with the whole stuff, first impression means a lot and you get that right away, a very good vibe and a pleasant feeling. Thank you Carstar💯👍
Staff was very helpful, kept me updated on the progress of my car, and finished repairs 6 business days sooner than estimated.
The process was smooth. The staff was friendly, courteous, knowledgeable and helpful.
Very nice speedy and pleasant
I have used this body shop 5 or 6 times over the last 20+ years, always excellent!!!!! I recently took my vehicle in for a front fender & front bumper area repair. Everything went extremely smoothly. Office staff and estimate process was quick & efficient. Body shop work & paint are exceptional. They blended the new paint into existing 12 yr old metallic red paint seamlessly. Car was returned a day early; and was washed, buffed out, vaccummed, and all windows cleaned. I would highly recommend this facility to anybody.
Service was great with timely update, and the office was very professional and nice. Loved the work would definitely recommend and return.
It was good 😊 👍 they did a great job on my vehicle!!!💋
Very friendly people very Responsible Really Happy with the Paint job
Excellent service kept us updated on the progress of our vehicle. Will recommend to family and friends.
Very nice job and quick service.
My family and I have been using Collision automotive for 20 years. Doug and his family are fantastic! We drive current model European luxury and American sports cars and would not trust anyone else to do a better job! Love these guys!
Great place to ring your car for auto body work.
Any time a company vehicle needs body work we send them to CARSTAR in East Hartford. Fast, friendly, great results. Weve been using them for many years and while it would be great to never need their services they take some of the hassle out of getting things fixed.
My insurance company recommended me to carstar to have my truck repaired . I’m very pleased with there customer service .they were so friendly .they did a great job repairing my truck they also washed and vacuumed it after the repair was completed .big thanks to Maggie she always kept in contact with me regarding my vehicle. I’ll strongly recommend.
I was not satisfied at all, not happy with what they did to my car and for thst I’ll never recommend anyone there and I’ll never go there again. First thing, these guys are horrible at time estimation because I was pushing back almost 3 weeks because they kept pushing it back at very short notice. One of the reasons why it got pushed back was because they tried to put the wrong bumper on the car. My car came with a sport bumper and they tried to give me the base model bumper, if my fog lights had fit in the cheaper bumper they would’ve given it to me. They tried to give me a white fog light to match my blue one after accidentally dumping out my blue fog light. How can that slip pass the final inspection? that pretty much showed me that they didn’t go over their work in the end. They scratched up the tint on my car because the glass was pressed on the door making it hard to kove up and down so the tint got scratched up in the process. My door never made sounds, they took it off and now it squeaks and makes a knocking sound when you open and close it. I told the guy the car is making a weird sound that it didn’t have before the accident. I had to go back on 3 different occasions and drop my car off to get these issues fixed and at the end they didn’t fix any of my complaints. You would think since I found out they were trying to give me a different bumper because it’s cheaper that they would be nice and fix the issues. I’m left with a $100 bill to replace my tints that they scratched off. I only had a hit in the front so doors and tints shouldn’t have issues. I didn’t want to post anything but I’m really disappointed about the horrible service.
Very good
Ive been using this CarStar for a while now, and theyre just great. Ive never had any issues with their work, and theyre always so friendly and willing to help me out with whatever car troubles I have - even small things that they dont charge for. Right now theyre fiddling with my headlights, because they throw out stray light that makes people think Im high-beaming them. They could have said the bulbs only go in one way and theres nothing that could do, but instead theyre at least trying.I highly recommend this establishment!
Excellent service and friendly staff. Quick on repairs. Would use again if needed.
Great communication, excellent workmanship.
Very professional. No attitude from.anyone whenever I had questions or just an update
Very detailed, professional and accomodating
I had a 2012 Impreza that was rear ended fixed here. It took a little longer than expected, but they took care of the rental. That was good. The quality of repair did not seem good though. Heres why I say that... the seams of the hatch are all uneven. Theres a small bleed on the paint. They didnt put the screws in the wheel well for the bumper. In all, I wouldnt use these guys again.
I got a second opinion after getting an estimate here and ultimately decided to go with carstar, their estimate and work was spot on and in addition to that their customer service went above and beyond. JP specifically dealt with my pickiness with grace and professionalism. He answered every question I had and made sure my needs where met. Would highly recommend them!
They did a great job fixing up my car. Thank you!
Fast and friendly, the process went smoothly.
Fixed up my car right in time to make the drive back from school. Great service, got it fixed quick.
Superb craftsmanship and amazing customer service. Hats off
Great service!
The best
Reliable
Service is great
Great service — fixed my car after an accident and returned it in better condition than before. They communicated well and gave updates at each step of the process, and the estimated pickup date was accurate
The friendly staff are looking for the solution for every problem with your car .. Thanks Jeff
Excellent service, very professional I will recommended 100% and will only take my 2018 Camaro there. Excellent service and very professional left my Camaro as new.
