- Casey Starnes, Owner of Starnes Collision Center

The staff at Starnes Collision Center is professional, kind and goes above and beyond what is expected. Casey and his staff saw some issues in our 2005 VW that needed to be addressed and repaired them at a very fair price. Their workmanship is impeccable! Thank you so much!

- Loretta L, Charlotte, NC

This is the best customer experience I have ever experienced. Casey, Deirdre, and the rest of the staff educated me on the process from getting a rental to getting my payout from my insurance. They truly went above and beyond and over delivered. Casey is beyond fair and is willing to do whatever is necessary to make sure your needs and wants are fulfilled. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Great people all around and best in the business.
