WJ Auto Body

Will Padilla is a scam artist. Don’t ever do any business with this scumbag. He will take your insurance claim and then repair your car with salvaged parts, repair what was suppose to be replaced, lie, lie lie to you. Wj Autobody may be closed down but Will is still around scamming people with his floating body shop scam. Not only will your car never be fixed correctly, he does not stand behind his work. He steals from the insurance companies and steals from the customer. The guy should be in jail.

I tried to be lenient on this small business but despite numerous chances they never seemed to hit the mark. One major issue that missed the mark was their inability to do what they said they were going to do such as call me back. That happened more times than I’d care to recall. Super annoying! Also I asked for an inspection, since it expired while my car was being repaired and that just never happened. I am not sure what the problem was. Once the machine was down, another the inspection guy wasn’t around… come on now. I ended up just going to Maso’s Texaco.
I also had a few issues after I got my car which was repaired well for the most part. My car died not long after I was reunited with my car. The battery was fine but turned out that some fasteners or whatnot were loose so we just had to wrench it tighter. That seems like an oversight of whoever reinstalled my battery. Keep in mind like almost my whole front end was replaced. Admist this experience which thankfully occurred during the day on a gas stop less than a mile from my Mom’s house, I discover my hood supports are no long hydraulic. There is no hood stand on my car. I call them to report it, they say they will need to file a supplement. I get that though this should have been caught before I got my car back but whatev, I am working with them. Of course, she said she’d call me back and never did. I only found out the supplement was being processed because my insurance company emails me.
To put the cherry on top, turns out from what I heard, they are out of business. Not a surprise! I hate it. I want to give small businesses a try, but this one missed on so many levels. Plenty of potential but the errors overshadow what could have been.
