Kaizen Collision Center - Salida in
Salida (CO)

Very pleased with the overall experience. That seems to be unusual these days. Would recommend.

34 Days from the time of my deer crash to the vehicle being returned fully repaired! Amazing work! Linda from the front desk kept me well informed on every step of the repair! Brandon did an awesome job on the repair!

Quality repair job by friendly, professional people! Excellent communication throughout the process. Highly recommend for your vehicle repair needs.

Brandon and Linda were friendly and efficient. They kept me informed about what was happening and my car looks great.

Brandon and team did an amazing job on my vehicle. The outside body work restored my car to original and the interior detail work was impressive. Their communication during the entire process was stellar, as they kept me in the loop re: delays which were out of their control (i.e. decals not arriving via the mail on time). I appreciated their communication during the entire process and gladly give them 5 stars! I have another vehicle I'll be requesting an estimate on soon, as I plan on using them yet again. Great job, guys!

They did an excellent job repairing our vehicles. It took a little longer than it’s expected, but it’s because the vehicle was new and parts were delayed. This was not their fault.

They really helped us when we were in a bind. The body shop in Gunnison couldn't take our car until January. We had the car towed to Kaizen and they started working on it in a week. Linda is super friendly and easy to work with and they worked with our insurance as well. I would highly recommend their shop for any auto needs you may have.

The administrative staff was very friendly. They kept us informed on the progress of the work being performed. We were able to take in the car earlier than expected and it was done on the initial estimated day. Our car was backed into while it was parked. The repair was great and the car looks at good as new. As a bonus the car was returned washed, and the inside was vacummed. Over all it was a good experience.

I had a major impact and significant damage to my 2021 Chevy Silverado LT Trail Boss. I took my vehicle to Kaizen Collision in Salida CO having great experience with another deer incident repair in 2021. They did an amazing job and I highly recommend them. Kaizen was amazing through the entire process. Staff kept me updated and informed me, fought hard to get the insurance company to do what they are supposed to do and the final repair work was absolutely amazing. My 2021 Chevy Silverado LT Trail Boss looks brand new and you can’t even identify that it sustained the damage it did. Thank you!

My poor truck was hit on the drivers side by a deer that made a huge dent. As the offending party left the scene of the crime, and scampered off into the bushes with her other wide eyed friends I couldn't get her insurance details, but the team at Kaizen took care of all that, all I had to do was pay my deductible. The job took a while, but as my Dad would always say, "You can do it right, or you can do it fast". They obviously did it right because honestly the work is impeccable, you would never know that there was a huge dent there before. Oh and bonus, they vacuumed the inside of my car and wiped off all the dust. Would highly recommend their team for body work. Their front desk team is the best as well, they kept me updated on everything that was going on and got new bids to the insurance and just made everything super easy! Thanks guys!

We were extremely impressed and pleased with Kaizen for repairing our 2018 Honda Pilot. They took care of everything from start to finish. We did not have to go back to our insurance company for supplements, they took care of that. The work was done in a timely manner and we especially appreciated how they kept us informed. They even detailed the interior as well as the entire exterior. If we ever have to have any body work done we will be going back to Kaizen.

I really appreciate this auto shop. Their entire staff is professional. They worked with me on dropping off my truck/getting an estimate, I have difficult hours with my work. I was frequently updated on where they were in the process regarding the body work on my truck. My vehicle was finished up early and when I picked it up, the truck was SO clean. It really made a bad situation (hit and run) way better. Appreciate them and will recommend to anyone.

The staff at Kaizen was professional, friendly and very helpful. Not only did they do an excellent job repairing my car, but detailed it inside and out! It looks beautiful! They also repaired it in much less time than estimated.

If you want the worst work possible with the most attitude, this is your place! Yes, the door looked decent when they got done, but they didn’t replace the trim and said it was my responsibility to either provide them with it or do it myself. But the BIGGEST ISSUE that I have found a few months down the road it my half door(crew cab Chevy truck) and my main door don’t seem to be fitting together. Also they never hooked up my security system to the door when they were done. Most of this could be overlooked if they were easy to work with, but anything you need to ask them they make seem like the biggest pain in the world. And I’m not talking about Kendall I’m talking about the other blond lady that works in the front. They never give you a time line on how long stuff will take, it’s just vague, and they know you depend on your vehicle so it’s pretty rude tbh. The guy that did the evaluation was super nice and great to work with. But ONE BAD APPLE SPOILS THE BUNCH. That lady at the front is just miserable to work with, go LITERALLY ANYWHERE ELSE. I’m sure you will have a better experience. Oh and it took over a month to get a small ding in my door repaired just fyi, they never had all the parts when I brought I in but said they did

Although I was shocked that, after the initial inspection of the vehicle, my appointment was 3 months out, once the car was in the shop I was kept informed as to the progress, and the car was fixed and ready to go a week ahead of time. Even washed and vacuumed! The same crew that worked for Mienke is still there, and they have always been friendly, helpful, and thorough. Thank you all!

I hit a deer and we had Kaizen do the repairs. They did an amazing job and returned my car like new and VERY clean. They were easy and professional to work with the entire time. Kaizen made it easy peasy with our insurance company. I highly recommend them!

They've done several repairs for me over the years and they do excellent work. Staff is super helpful and friendly. Recent repair was fairly complex as they had to cut out damage and weld new body corner panel in. And it was done a week sooner than expected. My truck was returned detailed and looking brand new.

Kaizen Collision Center was fantastic to work with. Throughout the entire process they communicated well, answered every question, finished everything exactly when they said they would and made our truck look great. I highly recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to work with them again if we needed anything for our vehicles.

Fantastic, friendly, communicative, and helpful staff/customer service. Great repair work in a reasonable timeframe. They returned my car looking more brand-new than prior to my accident! Kaizen kept me promptly updated as progress & alterations were made to my repair. I couldn't be more satisfied with the service & my experience.

Seriously blown away. A deer ran into the side of my car mid October. These guys got me in two weeks later and had my 4runner for a few weeks. They absolutely not only repaired it to perfection they detailed the inside and outside of my car. It looks properly BRAND new. I’m honestly astonished. Exceeded my expectations and then some. They also worked with my car insurance along the way to get paid- I just had to pay my deductible.

Best service and attention to my car repairs! Both the technicians and office staff gave me top notch service! So very helpful and friendly. Actually was my first and hopefully only experience needing a body shop. Hit a deer. They were so helpful and put my mind at ease about the whole process. My car looks like new! A huge Thank you to everyone at Kaizen in Salida!!!

Great auto body place. I originally went to them because the other shop in town doesn't work on BMWs. This place had no problem accepting the job. Very nice and proficient office staff. Quick and easy estimate. The work was done when they said it would be. The car looked brand new. I've had to used them again recently, and had the same experience. It's a well run business that does great repair work.

They saved my day! What a blessing. I had pulled to far forward with my Honda Accord that sits really low to the ground and pulled my bumper off. I got there at 4:45 15 minutes before they closed and they got my bumper back on within 15 minutes and we're so nice and kind to me. I felt like such a mess because I was coming from out of town and didn't know how to fix my bumper. Thank you so much to the employees that work there for helping me out in a small amount of time. I would definitely recommend this place.

Mahnke is the best! I had body damage to a new Jeep Grand Cherokee from someone in the Safeway parking lot. The dealer recommended Mahnke and I could not have been more pleased. They did a terrific job, the car looks brand new and they even detailed it inside and out. Plus they were very professional and wonderful to work with. I will definitely use them for any future body work! Highly recommended.

Amazing staff, I was updated promptly and appropriately by Jenny and Brandon. The paint was matched perfectly. Nate worked on my car and I swear it drives better now than before. My car was detailed professionally upon completion. Very pleased with my experience and I highly recommend them to anyone that needs auto body repairs or a professional opinion.

Mahnke Auto body rocked it! I had wrecked my front end and needed repair. All of their staff are extremely kind and knowledgeable. They kept me informed of my car repairs, got my car repaired in a timely manner, and my car looked amazing when I got it. Honestly it looked better than when I bought it :') Thank you all for the solid work and customer service. I am so happy I chose this place and would HIGHLY recommend them.

I had some body damage to a leased vehicle and only had 4 weeks before we need to turn it in. Mahnke did a great job in estimating the work, scheduling it for repair and following through with their promise. Not only did they do a great job repairing the vehicle, they also took it to the detail shop so it was nice and clean for my lease turn-in appointment. The team at Mahnke did a great job and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fair and honest auto body shop.
