About Fix Collision Auto Body — Northridge's Trusted Collision Repair Shop

Fix Collision Auto Body: Same Trusted Shop, Fresh Name

Fix Collision Auto Body, formerly Center Auto Body of Los Angeles, has a new name — and that is the only thing that has changed. The same owner, the same experienced team, and the same shop at 18403 Eddy Street, Northridge, CA 91325 are still here, still doing the same quality work that San Fernando Valley drivers have relied on for years. If you were a customer before the rebrand, you are in exactly the right place.

Serving Northridge and the greater San Fernando Valley — from Canoga Park and Chatsworth to Encino and beyond — Fix Collision Auto Body handles every vehicle with the same precision and care. Everyday commuter cars, late-model trucks, luxury marques, electric vehicles — the standard of work does not shift based on what pulls through the door.

If your vehicle has been in a collision, do not wait. Send us photos and details of the damage and our team will walk you through your options — starting with a free, no-obligation estimate. Call +1 (818) 448-1546 today to get started.

A Shop Built on Years of Hands-On Collision Repair Experience

That expertise wasn't claimed on a sign — it was earned vehicle by vehicle, repair by repair, over years of hands-on work. Craftsmanship isn't a talking point here; it shows up in every repair, from a minor door crease on a daily driver to structural damage on a high-end European marque. That consistent standard of care is what built the shop's reputation across Northridge and the San Fernando Valley long before the rebrand.

From domestic trucks to German luxury marques, the shop has worked on more than 70 makes and models. Fords and Chevys come through regularly, right alongside BMWs, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, and Audi — and the mix increasingly includes electric vehicles like Tesla and Rivian. Each category demands different knowledge, different materials, and different procedures — and the shop is equipped for all of them. Computerized color-matching systems ensure paint blends invisibly. Laser frame-measuring equipment confirms structural geometry is restored to factory specification. EV-safe protocols protect high-voltage systems during every stage of the repair process.

The rename to Fix Collision Auto Body brought a clearer identity to the operation. No technicians changed, no processes changed, and no ownership changed. Drivers searching for collision repair in Granada Hills or across the wider Valley are working with the same team they always have — now under a name that reflects exactly what the shop does. If you want to see that experience applied to your vehicle, reach out and share your damage details for a free estimate.

What Customers Experience: Repairs Done Right the First Time

The moment a damaged vehicle pulls in, technicians inspect for both visible and hidden damage before any repair work begins — nothing gets missed, and nothing gets assumed. From there, the team assists with the insurance process directly, working with carriers like State Farm, GEICO, Allstate, Progressive, and more than 100 other insurance partners so customers never have to navigate claims alone.

Fix Collision Auto Body uses computerized color matching in a controlled spray booth environment, so repainted panels blend seamlessly with the surrounding factory finish. There is no telltale color difference that announces a prior repair — the vehicle looks whole again.

A common question is whether customers need to manage back-and-forth calls between the shop and their insurer. The shop assists with insurance claims and works directly with carriers on your behalf, keeping you informed without burdening you with logistics.

Drivers from Mission Hills to Tarzana bring their vehicles to Fix Collision Auto Body knowing the team applies the same standard of care to every repair. To start that process for your vehicle, send photos and a description of the damage to +1 (818) 448-1546 for a free, no-obligation estimate.

Every Type of Collision and Body Repair, Under One Roof

Auto body work spans a wide range of damage types and repair methods, and Fix Collision Auto Body handles the full spectrum from a single location on Eddy Street. Structural repairs form the core of the operation: complete collision repair, frame straightening and unibody repair using laser-measuring equipment that confirms geometry is restored to factory spec, bumper repair and replacement, fender repair and replacement, and auto glass and windshield repair. When damage is cosmetic rather than structural, the shop offers paintless dent repair (PDR) for minor dents and door dings — a process that preserves the original factory finish entirely — along with scratch and scuff repair, rust removal and corrosion prevention, and hail and storm damage restoration.

The high-value specialties are an important part of what Fix Collision Auto Body provides. Tesla and EV collision repair follows EV-specific safety protocols that protect high-voltage battery systems throughout the repair. Luxury and exotic vehicle repair covers BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Audi, and other precision marques. Classic and vintage car restoration rounds out the specialty side.

Supporting services complete the picture: professional auto detailing and paint correction, fleet and commercial vehicle repair with fast turnaround, hands-on insurance claim assistance across more than 100 carriers — including Westfield Insurance, Western National Insurance, and Wawanesa Insurance — and free estimates for every job. Whatever the damage, whatever the make, there is no need to call multiple shops.

Luxury, Exotic, and Electric Vehicles: We Know What They Require

Not every auto body shop is equipped to work on a Porsche 911, a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, or a Tesla Model S — and the difference matters. Luxury and exotic vehicles have specialized body structures, proprietary paint systems, and precise panel tolerances that require specific repair knowledge and equipment. Fix Collision Auto Body repairs BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Audi, and other luxury marques with the attention to fit, finish, and structural alignment those vehicles demand.

Electric vehicles require a separate set of procedures. Tesla and Rivian repairs call for EV-specific safety protocols, structural considerations unique to battery-electric platforms, and repair procedures that preserve vehicle software integrity — work that differs meaningfully from a conventional combustion vehicle repair.

Computerized color matching reproduces factory finishes on luxury marques without visible blending lines. Laser frame-measuring systems confirm structural geometry is restored to manufacturer specification, not approximated. If you drive a high-value vehicle and want it repaired by a shop that understands its requirements, call +1 (818) 448-1546 or send photos of the damage to receive a thorough, no-obligation assessment — not a generic estimate.

100+ Insurance Partners: Your Carrier Is Almost Certainly on Our List

Fix Collision Auto Body works directly with more than 100 insurance carriers, assisting with billing and adjuster communication on your behalf so the claims process stays as simple as possible. The shop documents the damage and works with your adjuster directly — your focus stays on approving the work and picking up a restored vehicle.

The carrier list spans the industry's largest names and many regional specialists: State Farm, GEICO, Allstate, Progressive, Farmers, Liberty Mutual, USAA, Nationwide, Travelers, Mercury, AAA (Automobile Club of Southern California), Wawanesa Insurance, Safeco, The Hartford, 21st Century Insurance, Encompass, Esurance, Clearcover, Metromile, Westfield Insurance, Western National Insurance, Western Mutual Insurance, Western General Insurance, Viking Insurance, Vantis Life Company Insurance, Utica National Insurance, and scores more. Whether your policy is through a national carrier or a California-focused insurer like Alliance United or Pacific Specialty, the team has almost certainly worked with them before.

Direct billing means the shop — not you — carries the administrative weight of the claim. There are no forms to chase, no adjusters to call back, and no out-of-pocket payment waiting on reimbursement.
