A few months ago, I decided to take the plunge and buy a brand new car. I had my eye on a brand new Honda Accord, and luckily, I knew that Honda of Kirkland was just the place to find what I wanted. The dealership gave me a great deal, and I drove off in a shiny new car - thanks to all of their wonderful help!
A few weeks ago, I parked my car on a street in downtown Kirkland for an afternoon picnic in the park with some friends. When I returned to my vehicle, I found that someone had hit my car, and did not leave a note. Since I have only had the car a few short months, I wanted to get it fixed right away.
After calling my insurance company, I immediately visted Juanita Collision Center for an estimate from Mike Gagnon. He gave me a quote and had my car scheduled for repair within minutes. When I took my car in to have the work done, they ended up doing it even faster than they quoted, and had it back to me looking brand new in just a couple of days - even after having to order the new bumper from the factory.
Juanita Collision Center helped to make what was a very frustrating situation so much better. Their superior work and customer service is truly A+. I highly recommend visiting them if the unfortunate need for body work arises. - Samantha St. John, Greater Kirkland Chamber of Commerce
