Monterey Collision & Auto Repair

At Robert's Auto Repair, we pride ourselves on pampering you and your vehicles. We are the premier auto body repair center on the Monterey Peninsula and very proud of it. Yes, we repair your vehicle, a lot like other auto shops do, but do they hand wash your car before you pick it up? Do other mechanics have the state-of-the-art, high-tech equipment to refurbish your car to factory specifications? Can other auto shops do the same level of work and complete the project as rapidly as Robert's Auto Repair? At the time of this writing, we are the only green-certified auto body repair center in Monterey County... and we are especially proud of those bragging rights! What we're talking about is dealer-level service, without the dealer-level prices. Come see what we're talking about and call 831-373-1535 to schedule a "spa treatment" for your vehicle. You'll be amazed at how rejuvenated your car will look

When it comes to vehicle maintenance and repair, knowledge truly is power. Understanding your car's needs not only enhances safety but also helps you avoid unnecessary accidents and expenses. At CARSTAR Robert's Collision, we believe in empowering our clients with the information they need to make informed decisions about their vehicles. Why Vehicle Knowledge Matters One of the primary reasons to familiarize yourself with your vehicle is safety. Regular maintenance checks and understanding warning signs can prevent breakdowns and accidents. For instance, knowing the significance of dashboard warning lights and the sounds your car makes can alert you to potential issues before they become serious problems. A well-maintained vehicle is less likely to require expensive repairs. By staying informed about your car's maintenance schedule, you can ensure timely servicing, which helps extend the lifespan of your vehicle and reduces the risk of major breakdowns.

I love it when I wake up in the morning, pain-free, feeling good, and ready for my day. On days like that, I feel unstoppable. Like everything's going my way. I feel like a smooth-running machine, like a racehorse, or like a marathon runner...moving like a finely-tuned, precision instrument. Sometimes, however, I feel off when I wake up. My neck aches because I slept on it wrong. I'm dragging out of bed. I don't feel motivated, excited, or joyful about the start of my day. That's when I'm not feeling precise about anything! So, how do you think your auto feels at the start of its day? Has it been maintained lately and given a new oil change? Are the tires looking good and properly inflated? Is the body looking smooth, shiny, and new? Is the engine purring? Are all the lights working? Without maintenance, precision flies out the window. Without precision, we feel and operate out of balance. When we're out of balance, we overcompensate and our parts start weari ... read more
