Why Glendale EV owners make the drive

Glendale has a lot of Teslas and a lot of German cars, and both use plenty of aluminum. Teslas, Rivians, Lucids and most newer EVs are built from aluminum and high-strength steel that need their own tools and training to repair safely.

We're a family shop that has been on the same corner of Western Ave since 1988. Cars have changed a lot in that time, and we've kept training to keep up with them. Our techs are aluminum-trained, and we use OEM parts so the structure and the battery enclosure are repaired the way the maker intended.

The battery and the structure

On an EV the battery pack sits low in the floor, and the structure around it is part of what protects it in a crash. That's why we follow EV-safe procedures around the high-voltage system and repair the structure to factory spec before the cosmetic work starts.

After the repair, we recalibrate the camera and sensor system in-house so Autopilot and the safety features read the road correctly when you drive home to Glendale.

Insurance from Glendale

Insurers want EV structural and battery-area work documented. We handle that, and we deal with your carrier directly. We're a State Farm DRP shop and Geico Drive-Thru approved, and we work with every other carrier. If your policy includes rental coverage, we set up a free rental so the drive back to Glendale isn't a problem.
