What clients say about JDS AUTO BODY in Trenton (IL)
I cannot say enough great things for JDS Auto Body. This has been my go-to shop for many years, and as long as they are in business, my family & I will not be going anywhere else.
Jeremy and his staff are truly professionals, in all they do. They are incredibly knowledgeable, patient & friendly to work with, and perform quality work that they stand behind. From start to finish—addressing your initial problems & concerns, helping you work with the insurance company (if necessary for your project), to the work performed & then completion stage of receiving your vehicle back.. you’ll find that you’re in excellent hands, at JDS.
If you want a genuinely trustworthy shop, that will be honest with you every step of the way and perform top-notch work, then this is one-hundred percent the place for you.
I honestly can’t say enough good things about JDS Auto Body. I chose them because my usual body shop was booked out for nearly two months, and from start to finish, my experience with Jeremy (the owner) and his team was nothing short of exceptional. As a first-time customer, the entire process was smooth, reassuring, and exceeded my expectations in every way.
Dealing with vehicle damage is never fun—especially deer damage—but Jeremy and his team made the experience incredibly easy. Repairs began in less than a week, and the turnaround time was impressive. One huge bonus was that Jeremy handled communication with my insurance company directly, eliminating a lot of stress and unnecessary back-and-forth.
From our very first conversation, it was clear that Jeremy genuinely cared—not just about fixing my car, but about making sure I felt comfortable and informed throughout the process. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions without rushing, and was upfront and honest about what needed to be done. As someone who is very particular about keeping my vehicle in top condition, that level of transparency meant a lot to me and gave me complete confidence that no corners would be cut.
Communication throughout the repair process was outstanding. I was consistently kept in the loop and never had to wonder about the status of my vehicle—something that can be a real issue with many auto body shops, especially larger ones. When I picked up my car, I was blown away. The repairs were flawless, the paint matched perfectly, and the car looked just as good—if not better—than it did before. It’s obvious they take pride in their work and don’t settle for “good enough.”
What really stood out was the attention to detail. It never felt like I was just another customer; Jeremy treated my vehicle as if it were his own. The shop itself was clean and well-organized, and everyone I interacted with was friendly, professional, and respectful.
About a week later, while installing some additional parts, I noticed a small amount of deer residue in a few very hard-to-reach areas—something that would be easy for anyone to miss—and minor damage to a couple of small plastic pieces. I reached out to Jeremy simply to keep him informed, and he immediately offered to have me bring the vehicle back so he could make it right. That level of accountability truly speaks volumes.
If you’re looking for an auto body shop you can genuinely trust—one that won’t cut corners—I highly recommend JDS Auto Body. Their quality of work, honesty, and genuine care for their customers make all the difference. I won’t hesitate to return for any future auto body needs, and I’ll absolutely be recommending them to anyone I know.
Highly Recommended!!! Wonderful establishment that makes the entire insurance claim process absolutely headache free!!! Goes above and beyond for their customers and makes you feel like family. I have taken two vehicles to Jeremy and both times I have been highly satisfied. Jeremy walks you through every step of the process and explains it in a way that is easy to understand! His attention to detail is much appreciated! If I ever need help in the future, I will again choose JDS Auto Body.
Great communication throughout entire process. Easy to work with and no hassle on my end dealing with the insurance company bc they took care of it all. Got our repair done quick. Did a great job and even cleaned up the inside which I didn't expect but greatly appreciated!
Jeremy and Mr. John were great.
I was in an accident. I called the listed Autobody Shops by phone. Jeremy was very professional. He answered my questions and explained how they would handle a situations like mine.
The Insurance towed the SUV there.
Once it arrived to their shop and it was evaluated, Mr. John call with an update. We were invited out. When we arrived, he explained the wait time and next steps with the Insurance company. So, we would be prepared.
He spoke with the Claims Rep and kept us informed.
Although, the SUV was Totaled Out, they were very helpful in walking us through this process.
It's a BLESSING to still have HONEST people out there.
JDS in Trenton was great to work with all around! The work was completed quickly and looks amazing! The customer service was great and made the experience easy and painless. Will return in the future for any auto body needs.
They did an amazing job on my car. The paint is perfect and you can’t even tell it was in an accident. Will definitely be back in the future for any car problems. And AMAZING customer service. Always kept me in the loop and went above and beyond
I can’t say enough great things about this shop! Jeremy was so nice and was awesome about updating me about the status of my car. Very professional and my car looks AMAZING. I would highly recommend this shop. You are in good hands here!!!
Nothing but good things to say. I used JDS when I hit a deer late September. The car was ok to drive after they re-fastened my body kit. They did an estimate, ordered parts, and told me they would contact me when everything was in to set up repairs. Right as they were getting ready to call and set up repairs for the deer, I hit a racoon on the way to work..... this did more damage than the deer as it rolled under the front and my car was ultimately towed to the shop. This resulted in a 2nd insurance claim - again for front end damage - what a nightmare. Jeremy kept in contact the entire time they had my car, he was very upfront about everything, and showed concern in making sure I had a rental to get to and from work, etc. They had it done in significantly less time than I expected and it looked better than when I bought it. I am so grateful and fortunate that we have such a reliable and professional place so close to home. I would recommend them to anyone.
The only shop that was willing to tow my truck when I called. They had my truck back to the house in less than 30 minutes. Extremely professional during the entire process.
Outstanding service and work of the highest quality. My car was there for roughly 6 months after an accident, kept me updated the entire time as many parts were on backorder. Great attention to detail and given some of the issues with the repair that came up, I am confident no corners were cut. I have a number of body shops closer to home and I am glad I trusted JDS. Would rate higher if I could, thanks again!
After hitting a deer I found myself in need of auto body work for the first time since getting my license 25 years ago. JDS was a fantastic choice. Jeremy answered all of my questions, dealt with the insurance, and kept me informed about the progress on my car and when I could expect it to be finished. My car was returned to me fully detailed and you would never know it had ever had front-end damage. I hope I can go another 25 years without needing auto body work but if I do, I will definitely return to JDS.
Jeremy and the guys at JDS did a fantastic job repairing our Mustang. They were very meticulous and it’s easy to see they take pride in their work. Everything was done easily and on the timeline proposed.
I was extremely impressed by the service at JDS. In fact, I was more impressed by them than any other car service I've ever received. From their friendliness to their superior work, it's hard to beat them! Hopefully, I'll never wreck my car again, but if I ever do, I'm going straight to them for my repairs!
Great body shop, owner is super knowledgeable and helpful!
I see I had already left a 5 star review for JDS, but once again needed to use his services and once again service is absolutely top notch. Great company, great owner. Highly recommend!
John with JDS is AMAZING!
I had been rear ended and I am fairly new to the neighborhood and i didn't know where to take my car. People started coming out of the woodwork after they heard about my accident and told me to go to JDS, and they did not disappoint. From beginning to end John was all over it. He was coordinating with insurance adjusters to a local Caddilac dealership for some special parts. I, like everyone else, will reccomend JDS for any type of collision repair or any bodywork that you might need. My Cadillac is back and looking brand spankin new. Thank you John and JDS!
I have had a few incidents requiring body repair and the work this place does is top notch!! My mom's new luxury car was broken and dented everywhere from a vicious hail storm. Even the windshield and headlights were broken. When JDS was finished with it, it looked better than brand new. John, the owner, is a straight shooter. He gives honest estimates and delivers what he promises. This is a small town family business that has been there for decades. I highly recommend JDS.
