These guys turned a nightmare experience into a…..bearable one? Their initial quote was reasonable (relatively cheap for West LA). Most importantly, the job was done well, on time, and at the original estimate. Jason and his dad, Raj, are thoughtful, communicative, and honest. In a world where the average consumer is at a huge knowledge disadvantage, these are the type of people you want to trust with your car. Highly recommend.

AWESOME!!!!! I love my truck and it got hit on the front left wheel well, and it is a very tricky color. Looks black until the sun hits it then it's metallic dark green. They did such an amazing job I can't even describe. I called every day to check on my baby and they were always happy to give me an update. Job was done when promised and they even offered to drop it off for me. I love these guys and I am a customer for life :) **Addendum to previous review! A tree fell on my truck and crushed the entire drivers side :( Insurance wanted to total it but Jason knows how much I love my truck and talked them into repairing it. It took 3 months but the truck is now in better shape than when I bought it (used). Jason's attention to detail is remarkable and he made sure every millimeter of my truck was restored to perfection. Thank you Jason <3

Could not have been more impressed with the service from Jason and Westwood Autobody. This was my second no fault accident of the year and used a different shop for the first. That all went fine but I can attest that the level of service, responsiveness, and overall customer focus from Jason was next level. When he got wind that my insurer might delay getting the car back when I needed it due to a lengthy review/approval he initiated repair knowing full well it would get approved and his decision essentially got me the car back at least a week early. Again, communication was next level. He returned every call, was avail most times I called, and was in constant contact via text. Can't reccommend any higher.

Fast, reliable and genuine service. I bumped into a parking lot column by myself, which resulted in a broken taillight and some scratches along the body of my car..... Everywhere else said I needed to do new paint AND replace the bumper, quoting me thousands of dollars. Jason was the only person that recommended just getting touchups. I am very satisfied with the work that I got here. Jason went above and beyond to get me a better price for the taillight part, and the entire job came up to be a very, very fair price. Also, the entire job was done within an hour. Will come again!

I cannot say enough good things about the exceptional service I received from Westwood Auto Body and its owner Jason. I’ve had a rough year with two small accidents within a month leaving first my loaner vehicle with some unsightly scuff marks and then my own vehicle with really deep scratches that scrapes the primer area (see pictures). I was dreading the repair process and cost. But Jason immediately put my mind at ease - he listened to my concerns, provided a very fair and affordable quote, and made the entire experience seamless. Jason and his team did an incredible job restoring my vehicles back to pristine condition. What could have been a stressful ordeal was made so easy thanks to Jason's empathy and the shop's excellent workmanship. The best part? I dropped off my car to be fixed over a few days while I was traveling but couldn’t pick it up in time before they close on Friday. Jason personally drove the car back to my apartment so I can have it for work over the weekend (instead of having to rent a car). This is truly above and beyond expectations. I’m so grateful for their compassion and professionalism during a difficult time and will be sending anyone in need of reliable and honest auto body repairs to them! I’m a customer for life!

I've been going to Westwood Autobody for almost 10 years and I couldn't recommend them more highly. In my experience, they do excellent work. (Most recently, someone ran into my car and they literally made it look brand new). They are also extremely fair with their pricing, get things done quickly, and are wonderful to work with. I love working with Kenny. He always goes above and beyond and I'm grateful that I can trust him 100%.


Feb 05, 2024

Wow! These guys are so great. I went in today needing help with a broken car door and they fixed everything on the spot. I had started to try to do it myself and figured out rather quickly it was harder than it looked online. They were so gracious, helpful and fast. Thank you for making my life easier today! I highly recommend coming here.

Jason and his team did an amazing job getting my car back to perfect condition after it was scratched and having ignition problems. They worked directly with my insurance and made the process extremely easy. If you are looking for a good shop, this is the place!


Nov 05, 2023

The guys at Westwood auto body were incredibly helpful. I came in with a scrape on a rental car that would have cost me thousands and they repaired it in minutes for far less. It looks perfect. Can’t recommend them highly enough!


Nov 05, 2022

Honestly wouldn't really recommend this place. They overpromise and underdeliver. They kept my cost low but the work was shoddy - I had a dent and several scratches and after I got home, looked like the dent hadn't been fully taken out and some (non functional, but still) parts looked misaligned. All I can say is there's a reason they're cheap - the work is lower quality too


Nov 05, 2022

They lie. About everything tock my car to get fix so they stole my insuranse over 10thousand$ plus they did herry up to fix it. Tock them almost 3moths and still is not fix.complity.There hang up on me when i call to see how much leaft .. so rude t ok customers.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE. I came to this auto body shop needing body work and ended up having a bigger headache than I asked for. The guys at this shop seem nice at first, but like the other reviews on here, my car was not the same after picking it up from here. When I picked it up, my engine light was on, I let them know and they said to drive it around for awhile and it would go off. Not only did my light not go off, my car got worse. All my warning lights came on, steering wheel and speedometer didn’t work (I had none of these problems prior to Westwood). I took it back and they claimed they didn’t work on that side of the car (for electrical) and they didn’t know what happened, but they were more than happy to reopen my claim and try to get more money from my insurance. I told my insurance I suspected that they messed with my car and took it to Toyota. Toyota did an inspection and was able to confirm that it was indeed from the same side of my car they worked on, and this shop still tried to avoid blame, and refused to pay for any of the damages they caused. Luckily my insurance was able to cover the repairs for their mistakes at toyota, but I really wish I read the reviews of this scamming auto shop before taking my car here. SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE AND MONEY AND CHOOSE A DIFFERENT AUTO BODY SHOP. THEY WILL TRY TO SCAM YOU OR YOUR INSURANCE.

DO NOT TRUST YOUR CAR TO THESE PEOPLE. VERY DISHONEST ⛔⚠️👇 These guys, the dad is the tough guy and the son plays the easy going polite guy. Our family car was never the same since we took it to them to have the hood fixed. It's now been sitting for several years, non-operational after they worked on it. They messed up the head lights, and the radiator. They stole a charger from our trunk. They said everything was finished and charged us in full. They have several phoney 5 star reviews. Think about it: someone made an account just to review them. When did YOU last do that? Also, they make a big deal about their 4 star reviews as being phoney from competitors. 5 star means it can't be any better. 4 star is good, but they call most of their 4 star reviews fake. Imagine their ego and arrogance that everyone has to give them 5 stars. As for them mistreating veterans, we are a military family, and they most definitely ripped us off. Our beautiful, well running car was destroyed by this shop. Crazy thing is they didn't need to rip us off. It cost them just labor to fix the issues. Instead they released the vehicle unsafe to be operated.

Fast service

Great service. Replaced the driver side mirror on my Outback and did some sanding work on the door in less than 24 hours. I was pleasantly surprised to find they washed and polished the entire car when I came to pick it up.

Aviron avi has been extremely helpful and I highly recommend his bodyshop. Thanks


Nov 05, 2020

Great service! They replaced my bumper in under a week and it looks better than new!

Jason went above and beyond to fix my Canadian car - calling Canadian shops to source parts and even helping with me with insurance. I had just moved to LA at the time and gotten hit by a reckless driver. It was an extremely stressful time and I couldn't have gone to a better place. Jason is kind, patient, skilled, and honest. I hate/never write reviews, so this post is a testament to how strongly I feel about this. I saw some sparsely written, low-rating reviews which are obviously fake. It's hard to find a shop you can go to and feel like you are in safe hands. Go to Westwood Auto Body! You'll be happy you did.


Nov 05, 2020

Really kind services and warm-hearted people working there, glad I came here!


Nov 05, 2020

Where do I even begin? Went with my mom when she had to have her suv repaired. They guys are ROCK STARS!! The owner came out of the office to greet us when we arrived for an estimate. Didn't know us from Adam. Staff was extremely friendly and the mechanics working there were impeccably dressed. for guys that work on cars all day, I didn't see any dirt or grease on them. If you want a textbook lesson in great customer service and don't want to worry about your vehicle being repaired or other incidentals, THIS is the place to go!


Nov 05, 2019

I went in for a rather minor fix because my engine cover and splash shield were a bit dented. They did the work for free. Great people and honest service


Nov 05, 2019

My friend Larry Kent recommend this shop to me after my car was in an accident and I’m very grateful that he did. This shop is a five star all day the way in my opinion. Great coustumer service, quick service, and wonderful work!


Nov 05, 2019

There are so many other honest local body shops to go to.


Nov 05, 2019

These guys are the best, they move fast and efficiently. They know all the bull that insurance companies pull and our delays weren’t because of the shop. My car was restored like new and was cleaned like new. Thanks Roger and team! Definitely recommend. 👍🏻👍🏻


Nov 05, 2019

Waste of your money they are crazy.! Idk


Nov 05, 2019

Beware! Went to have my hood latch fixed and headlight bulbs changed. I was charged almost $600 and got home to find out that my lights were not replaced. When I asked them, I was told that they had to order a wiring harness, but never told me before I paid them in full. Now over a year later, they still have not fixed my headlights. The dealer told me that I was charged almost double what I should have been. Jason, the owner's son is who I've been dealing with. Everytime I've called and texted, I'm given some excuse. Even items from my trunk was missing. Gave me cheap replacement for my expensive charger. They took advantage of knowing that I was going to be hospitalized for a cardiac procedure. I'm going to the Bureau of Automotive Repair with a formal complaint. I trusted this family and they took advantage of me and let me down.


Nov 05, 2019

Roger (love you man), Avi and Jason have become my new best friends, unfortunately. I'm trying to negotiate a "volume" discount. Yes, driving in LA has its challenges. Thank God for these guys. Think my car loves them too. It always seems to be looking for an ACCIDENT !


Nov 05, 2018

Great experience getting my car fixed here. They were great about the pricing and finished the repairs a day early. I would definitely suggest anyone to take their car here!!!


Nov 05, 2018

I went for a quote for bumper and side door repair. Other shops were going to charge 3 times more for the same work. They even buffed out a lot of the damage without charge. Integrity is hard to find in LA. I will recommend this shop to all my friends! Thanks!


Nov 05, 2018

Thanks guys. Kudos to Sammy, Kenny and everyone at Westwood Auto Services. I had problems with overheating. These guys quickly identified the problem and fixed it. Quick and efficient service for a reasonable price. Keep up the great work guys.
