I am rejecting this response because: the professionalism within this shop is not there. You take a vehicle in to get repaired and its continued missed items and or neglected. Cut corners to do repairs. Spent time and money and loss of wages just to say car is now getting fixed and is a rental. The rental gave to me doesnt even fit me and a car seat. Which I specifically said needed to do.

I was referred to Gerber Collision on ********************************************************************** back in July of 2024 from ********** to fix a headliner from a car that purchased. We was advised from Gerber that the part was on back order. It is now May 2025 we were contacted by ******* that the part has finally came and scheduled to bring the vehicle today May 2025. We are now being told that Gerber wasn't following up with ********** the company to pay Gerber for the repairs and now the claim has been closed. ********** has informed that the last time Gerber even spoken to them was on July 23 2024 and there was no update since then. I am extremely upset and this shouldn't fall on the CUSTOMER. There should've been another route to have been taken to have this resolved. When I spoke to ******* she stated that she didn't know that she should've had to follow up in regards to this matter. Gerber is not taking accountability that the ball was dropped, and because of lack of communication WE THE CUSTOMERS are stuck in the middle. This needs to be resolved. ********** has confirmed that Gerber did NOT follow back up with them which now has caused the claim to close.Business Response

I took my car for a paint job and the clear coat started to come off, when I asked the shop to fix it they claimed I had damaged the paint, I told them I did not and the clearcoat was coming off by itself. I spoke to the manager that was very rude and refused to fix their bad paint job. Their work comes with a guarantee and no where does it say they try to make up excuses not to fix itBusiness Response

1/27/26 I had a dealer to fix my electrical problem on my 2020 jeep! Gerber says the lifetime warranty is void because the vehicle was in another accident & is void! The vehicle wasn't in another accident so they now say it's the builders fault since they don't make vehicles to last!Business Response

Complaint: 23231109
I am rejecting this response because:1) Thier "National Liftime Repair Guarantee" covers the vehicle as long as I own it. ***** claims that replacing the wiring harness connections all became
loose because the vehicle wasn't driven enough so Gerber isn't responsible for that! The dealer charged me $645.55 and said that the wiring harness
wasn't install correctly.
2) ***** claims the vehicle was in another accident but offers no proof just her word. I never made another claim and I did't have some shop just fix it without reporting it!
3) I'm tired of hearing excuses ***** ***** (Gerber) that I would never go there or recommend them to anybody I know because she says I don't have any Guarantee anymore!

We appreciate the opportunity to respond and Markt Manager **** *. has engaged with the complainant several times to address his concerns regarding the 2021 repair. At Gerber Collision & Glass, we remain committed to upholding the workmanship warranty we provide for services performed. After careful review, it was determined that the issue raised does not stem from the original repairs completed by our team. As it falls outside the scope of our warranty coverage, we are unfortunately unable to offer further resolution in this matter.Customer Answer

Complaint: 23231109
I am rejecting this response because: how can you tell me that when you replace the wiring harness on a vehicle and there are electrical issues that its not related to the workmanship? The shop had my son call to help them get the harness and said they had to find somebody to install it which is why they took 2 extra months to fix. They couldn't find anybody so a bump and paint or a assembly person installed it. Well you wonder why there were gound issues? The dealer said whoever installed it didn't know what they were doing! So I guess when a certified electrical technician said that I'm sure your bump and paint man will disagree and your marketing staff will agree with them! If I ever need my vehicle worked on again I will argue with the insurance company that I do not want to take it to Gerber! Also your service Sucks!

My truck had roof damage from the hurricane. In ************** and they took it to gerber, collision and glass in **********, *******, for repair I dropped it off december sixteenth of two thousand and twenty four, and was told it would be ready for pickup in february I received a text message in February. Saying that the car would not be ready until ******** I went to the business to retrieve a set of keys that I had left in the vehicle When I arrived February 4th My vehicle was in the garage with the roof torn off the windshield out and two inches of water throughout the entire vehicle front back right dashboard dashboard compartments and door panels There was water from front to back. There was also mold on every seat. The front seats, the back seats, even on the side of the doors The compartment, where I left my keys, had two inches of water in it, and the keys were rusted so it had been there for quite some time When I asked for an explanation from gerber collision, the manager told me that the windshield had a crack in it, and that is how all the water got in That was a blatant line. Because I drove the vehicle from october until december sixteenth to several different states and never had any issue at all with any water inside the vehicle and my windshield was not cracked When I drop the car off, add gerber collision in glass in **********, *******, I walked around the entire vehicle with an employee from gerber, who went through every speck of damage on the vehicle inside and out The manager from Gerber *******, *** lied to me. They blatantly lied to the physical damage specialist from **** insurance ******************** is covering the vehicle loss. $3000, which I am going to have to pay for.Business Response

My insurance had me drop my car off to the semoran location to assess damages and get an estimate. First foto is of actual rear end collision damage.. mind you we are not at fault. Second foto is damage caused by the shop. They were well aware we were not going to proceed with repair after initially assessing the rear and advising us that they couldnt repair due to poor prior repair before we got the car. We ere unaware of any damage due to clean carfax and advised we would contact a lawyer. Second foto was for whatever reason they felt the need to scrape up the side of the rear quarter panel. Third foto was how they fixed their mistake. I contacted corporate and district manager to which they all refuse to help and advised to get with my insurance. My insurance advised its not their fault to fix and I need to get with Gerber. Needless to say I am now driving a vehicle with more damage than was caused by the woman looking at her phone until we can get a lawyer to fight it. And this entire time we were respectful and just wanted to get a solution.Business Response

Complaint: 23225737
I am rejecting this response because: the vehicle has not been repaired. I spoke to ***** and he asked to bring the vehicle to see if he can do something but he can not fix it without fixing it. He agreed his staff should have never touched the car and stated due to integrity he cannot just bondo what his staff messed up and repaint due to the quarter panel needing to be replaced for safety reasons. At this point due to his staffs mistake, if he has to replace the quarter panel to satisfy his companies integrity and repair the damages caused by his staff then that is what needs to happen but I need my vehicles unauthorized damages repaired . I will bring the vehicle to the location requested and update this case accordingly.

My experience with Gerber Collision was extremely disappointing and felt like a complete scam. It took two months just to get my car in for repairs, and once they finally had it, I was told it would be ready in 10 days. I dropped my car off on the 30th of last month, and at drop-off, I was assured all parts were on hand for a quick fix. That promise was not kept.This week, I told them I had to have my car back by Fridayno excuses. When I arrived, I was shocked to find my $500 deductible had suddenly ballooned by another $1,000. Even worse, the suspension work I needed was never completed because they outsourced it, yet my bill went up from the original estimate, with fewer services actually performed. They refused to return my car unless I paid the extra $1,000. And now are refusing to give me my vehicle back unless its paid even though the work has not been completed or even started. The lack of transparency, constant delays, and surprise charges made this feel like a bait-and-switch operation. Other customers have reported similar issues: missed deadlines, poor communication, shoddy workmanship, and unexplained extra charges. I would not recommend Gerber Collision to anyone who values honesty or reliable service. Please note at the bottom of this page. There are attachments regarding my issue. The one labeled estimate was indeed the initial estimate. The pictures thatfollow are the pictures of the invoice. They attempted to have me pay and then denied me my vehicle until it was paid please note on youll see that certain items Like the $768 fog light all of a sudden theres two of them and the grill assembly magically grew in value by another thousand from the initial estimateBusiness Response
Date: 04/21/2025
Gerber Collision & Glass Market Manager **** *. has since contacted the complainant and explained the estimate differences between the original estimate and the final estimate, as well as the insurance process. They also discussed the additional $919 that the customer was charged was not for supplemental work or the suspension work, but for the original estimate that geico wrote and then paid to the customer. The customer has given the Market Manager **** *. permission to move forward with having the sublet suspension work completed.
