CUSTOMER REVIEWS
“Could not be more pleased. Easy to get an estimate ( very fair price and slightly lower that others), appointment for repair was focused on our needs (they seem to balance those in a hurry and those not), repairs done quickly and high quality. Will recommend to my friends without hesitation.”
Roy Wilson
“Excellent job, like new, and in the time frame I was told. They even washed the truck, inside and out. Recommend to anyone.”
Eric Hornbeck
“We have had only great experiences with Van’s. They do excellent work and have fabulous service. Your car will look like it never even happened!”
Lori Ray
“Van’s not only got my alignment right, but after some unclear situation they tried to get the problem corrected. They were really helpful and informative about how to avoid problems in the future. Got the work done in a very timely manner, despite how busy the shop was. I would highly recommend this shop.”
Joel Evangelista
“My car had damage down the entire passenger side, thanks to a snowplow. Van’s did a great job repairing and replacing. It looks like new! Their customer service was excellent! I highly recommend them.”
Jan Sexson

Dave Law
“Vans was very helpful repairing my truck. They were very professional, cooperative, friendly and meticulous. They made this experience affordable and easy. Thank you.”
Jamye Calkins
“I had unfortunate luck and hit a deer late at night on my way home from Arcadia. My fortunate luck was the closest body shop happened to be Vans in Shelby. My older truck was pretty much a total loss. Winston pulled the bumper and tweaked the many busted parts and made it drivable. I was blessed that he and Diane had the integrity to tell me it wasn’t worth fixing, but yet did so many things to help me get it home, 130 miles away. Honest, professional, and hard working people, I am grateful for their integrity. Thank you!”
Kelly Mac
“Holy smokes!!! Professional Perfection!!! My 2006 CR-V looks brand new!!! It was even spotless… inside and out… above and beyond in my humble opinion.”
