Hopkins Auto Body did an excellent job of fixing my car after I was struck in a parking lot. They worked with the other party’s insurance company, got the repair done and kept me updated. It looks fantastic. Highly recommend.

Loved my experience here! Needing work done on your car is always stressful and they were so amazing to work with. So communicative!

The service was exceptional. I was very happy with their work. Everybody was courteous and polite. They don’t try to rush you, they explain the job very well, and they have fair prices. Whether it’s paid by insurance or you want to pay yourself and just need it done, they will take care of it. They also do great glass repair.

Jeff and his team at Hopkins Auto Body did a very nice restoration job on our car after it was sideswiped while parked. Thanks again to Jeff and Team Hopkins Auto Body!

My car was involved in a collision while parked, and I had it towed locally to Ed’s. I was very impressed with the communication and service provided. Andrea was able to provide me updates every step of the way. My car looks wonderful after the repair. Thanks to the whole team!

The estimate was handled very professionally by Chris, and he kept me informed on the progress. The final cost agreed with the estimate, and the car looked brand new. Christine in the office was always extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend Ed’s to anyone needing repair work.

Ed’s delivered first-class service! The repair on our vehicle was awesome and looks brand new, like nothing ever happened. Chris and Shawn were very helpful throughout the process, and we got our car back quickly. We also love the pizza cutter they left in the car. I highly Wreck-O-Mend Ed’s!

I have been coming to Ed’s for many years, many of those interactions due to my own errors. But the staff at Ed’s never treats my needs any differently. Not only are they very professional, but their communication exceeds my expectations. They listen to my needs and concerns and adapt to them, making me a very satisfied customer.

Someone reversed into me, leaving paint damage, scratches, a damaged grille, and a popped-out bumper. I looked up the nearest body shop and ended up here, and I couldn’t have made a better choice. The staff is incredibly friendly and clearly takes pride in their work. My car came out looking brand new. Easily a 10/10 experience.

Collision Center once again provided excellent service and is the reason I continue to come back when the need arises. My vehicle was done in a timely manner and was detailed meticulously when I picked it up. I would highly recommend using Collision Center with your repair needs.

The work done on my Ioniq 5 was first rate, and the communication from the employees was always highly professional and friendly. I will without hesitation be coming back here, should my car become mangled or busted up in some fashion!

Everyone here was so incredibly polite and listened to my concerns. They made sure that my car left their hands as if it were brand new. Things can be a bit nerve-wracking when it’s an insurance claim, but they calmed my nerves. I was also pleased with the weekly status updates on my vehicle. I would hands down recommend anyone take their vehicle here.

Moose D.

June 2026

From getting an estimate until my car was completely repaired was a totally great experience. Jesse kept me informed about how the repair work was going and when it would be completed. Josh took care of the estimate. He was knowledgeable and personable. My car looks fantastic, too!

Sheila M.

July 2026

We were very pleased with all the services we received. The staff was excellent to work with and provided us with regular updates on our car. We have used this shop several times before over the years and have never been disappointed!

Every aspect of my experience was top notch! Friendly staff, body work perfection, and my vehicle is back to the pristine condition it was in after the high-quality work performed. I highly recommend!

One group, one standard

Four locations, the same promise at every one

Collision Center 1 is not a national chain that treats your car like a number. It is a group of established Twin Cities shops, each with its own history and its own neighbors, run under one shared standard of repair.

That means whichever location you choose, you get the same things: honest estimates, clear communication while your vehicle is in the shop, and repairs done the first time correctly. The reviews above come from four different shops, but the themes repeat for a reason. Customers describe the same care, the same updates, and the same quality across every location.

It is also why the same names keep coming up in reviews. These are long-tenured teams who take pride in their work and stand behind it. When your body shop is also your neighbor, doing right by you is the only way to do business.
