Please have your car towed somewhere else if possible. Read all the reviews. This place is shady, $750 storaged fee for a car that stayed there for less than 24hrs. Literally over night we were ready to pick it up at 9 am when they open which the girl at the front desk made it very clear that she was JUST getting in and wouldn't help us.
This morning, my neighbor had his van towed and went to pick it up from this company. When he arrived, the front desk staff was extremely rude and unprofessional. Because his English isn’t perfect, they dismissed him and even said, “Only English here,” in a disrespectful tone.
No one deserves to be treated like that—especially when they’re doing their best to communicate. This kind of behavior shows a serious lack of customer service and basic human decency. Businesses should be prepared to deal respectfully with people from all backgrounds, regardless of language ability. I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone based on how they treated him.
They are thieves, they charged me 87 dollars for a part that they bought it in auto zone for 27 dollars and all the work was $265 and I went to another mechanic shop and they told me that this work cost 75 dollars plus the part
i had my car towed here and it stayed for only 2 nights, final cost to have my car released was $455, cash only in that place. they gave "just okay" service, manners are needed, but hey they work with po po... and this tow place is money hungry. Good Luck!
This is one of the WORST places around. If I could give negative stars, I would give a -10!!!! These people should not be in business. They are frauds, EXTREMELY rude and money hungry vultures.
If I could give a negative amount of stars for Auto Body Jim's, I would rate them as lowest of low. They are crooks. The receptionist is rude, nasty, and heartless. My care was impounded there after an accident due to a medical condition. While the car was in impound, it was broken into by smashing the passenger side window and damaged the window frame. My $649 phone, $299 iPod, an old CT license plate, $600 worth of jewelry I had made and my Sabre Pepper Spray were all stolen. I called the Bridgeport Dispatch and it took me 3 days to the police out there to get a police report. I asked Jim's for their insurance because they were responsible for not keeping the car in a safe location...to my benefit, they had no signage stating, "We are not responsible for lost or goods.) Jim's gave me their (or what they thought) insurance carriers information. Apparently, that company had dropped them, however, they were allowed to give my their new insurer. I spoke with Ion insurance a few times and sent them pictures and the police report. They told me that I had no claim b/c the title wasn't in my name because I was borrowing from my sister. I raised hell explaining that I was there when the police officer watched the surveillance video of the thieves breaking into my car. They escalated my complaint and finally they are sending out an adjuster to see the damage done. They will not cover any of the items stolen in the car but at least the window and body work will be taken care of...I am a little skeptical still because have heard from any adjuster. #1 - Don't let them push you around because they will bully you and play dumb at the same time. Only one tow truck driver knew how to look up the surveillance video. They will also give you the wild goose chase back forth from their business to the Bridgeport PD. #2 - They only accept cash...is that under the table business? How much of their business is done in this fashion? #3 - NEVER get your car fixed here. Try to make Bridgeport a better place and not support the crooks.
Horrible place the front desk lady is rude and lies and is raciest and tell u to go back to ur own country. We complained to the court and police about them! They cheat and lie about there prices and make u pay 250$ for nothing and don't need to show u how may miles they had to tow! The front desk lady can't even tell between a fake plate from real she thinks ct dealer plates are fake!! Stupid lady I have never seen like this in my life!! They should be closed down and put out of business!! 2 days they make trouble for u just to get more money and to keep ur car there for nothing!!!
They are FRAUDS !! If you go there to pick up your car, make sure you have the papers from the DMV with all the tow information because they try to charge you a service fee, a 25.00 charge just because and all of that is included in the 88.00 tow charge. They try to charge you for them not being open as well and that is against the law to charge you for a day you cannot get your car from them because they are closed.
