I took my car into Bochek's after a front impact accident. They handled everything for me, kept me up to date with the progress, and my 10 year old car now looks like new. I highly recommend them.

Excellent All Around. I have had my Suzuki Aerio SX to them 4 times total over the last few years. Two times were for deer collisions, and one other time was a collision with another vehicle. The fourth time was to fix a coolant leak (pinhole in radiator hose).

Each time they were courteous, professional and did quality work. When there was a question about something simple they were quick to take a peek at it to correct any minor issues.

Recently I came home late and noticed steam under my hood and a HOT temperature reading. I called Bochek's expecting to leave a message. No... Someone answered the phone and made arrangements for me to have it brought in the next morning. They had it taken care of in the same day. They were fair about price, as well as keeping in contact with me regarding the progress.

In all instances I was treated very, very well and the body work is A1 quality.

I highly recommend Bochek's!

Rude and Unethical. I dropped my car off for a quote but authorized no work being upfront and telling them that if it was too expensive I was going to take it to the dealer. When I called to check on whether or not they had a quote ready for me (they had not gotten back to me) I was told they began the work without my authorization anyway and wouldn't have a quote for me until it was finished. I asked when this would be ready and the woman was very rude to me and said I should be grateful they fit me in. I told her I no longer wished to give them my business, that I would not be needing a quote, and I would be picking my car up. She said ok. A few minutes later I received a call from a man saying that they had already began the work on my car (without my permission) and that I would have to pay to get my car back. I said that I did not authorize any work, that I was perfectly clear in the beginning it was only there for a quote, and that I would not be paying any money to receive my car back. He was rude, but agreed. About 15 minutes later I show up to pick up my car. I walked in and asked for my keys and was given them no problem. When I walked out to the parking lot to get into my car, I saw that my front door was in my backseat. When I walked back into the shop to ask if they expected me to drive home like that, the man said that if I wanted my car put back together I would have to pay them to do so. I argued that my car should be returned to me in the same condition it was given to them especially since NO work was authorized. I ended up having to call the local police and file a report. Don't waste your time here.

Great place for repair work. I just picked up my 2000 dodge dakota from Bochek's. A little over two weeks ago, a young kid pulled out in front of me and took out the front end of my truck. It was towed to Bochek's for repairs. After waiting nearly a week for the other guys insurance (Erie) to actually make a decision about what to do, Bocheks went right to work fixing my truck.

The truck is 9 years old and has over 150,000 miles on it. I was fearful that when it was repaired that it would never be quite right again. Boy was I wrong.

Bocheks did an awesome job of repairing it, that it actually drives better then it did before the accident. Everything that was replaced was done so with new Dodge parts - no after market. When I picked the truck up, they took the time to explain to me what they had done and how they had done it. They didn't play the "girl' card with me - they treated me like someone who knew what was going on.

I HIGHLY reccomend Bockeks to anyone looking to have repair work done. I won't be going anywhere else.

Left my car unsafe to drive..... I had a minor front end collision in my 2000 Nissan Maxima, but unfortunately, the location of the collision was my right front wheel, causing a significant amount of mechanical damage. I took my car the Bochek's because it was the closest body shop to me on the State Farm network. I will not use this shop again and I have reported them to state farm.

They took more than a month to repair my car, and only after significant prompting. They put in replacement parts that were MUCH worse than the parts I had in the 8 year old car (they are called reconditioned). The worse part is that they either didn't replace or used such a faulty reconditioned tie rod end in the vehicle that the right front wheel (where the collision occurred) that there was an inch of play on the wheel. I immediately felt the problem when I drove the car and immediately took it to my regular mechanic where they immediately discovered the problem and I had to have a supplemental insurance claim filed to have the car fixed properly. They also repainted a wheel (which they didn't tell me) and didn't even balance it! Their report on the repair was a handwritten note with no useful information on it.

The funniest part is that because they kept the car so long, they actually delivered it (driving it over 5 miles to my home) and didn't notice the problem at all. It took my regular mechanic a single right turn to notice it. It took them 5 minutes to find the problem! It was also at this point he told me the vehicle would not pass inspection and was not safe to drive in this condition.

Finally after receiving the car back from the second repair, the shocks were so dead (again reconditioned parts) that it felt like I was feeling every single nook and cranny in the road so I had to trade in the car that I love and replace it.

Am I disgusted? You bet! Please do not waste your time and money on this place.
