Review №1

Had my truck under coated here and now my mechanic refuses to work on my truck. Nothing but problems with my sensors that they covered in thick black coating. He refuses to pry them open. Found this coating sprayed in places it shouldn’t have been like on my rotors! Can’t get it off. Where I did peel it off I can see rust under the coating. The manager never returns my messages. Terrible. Do not suggest bringing your truck here and letting them talk you into something like undercoating that will ruin your truck.

Think twice before you bring your vehicle here. The “shop manager” Larry is a backstabbing hack job who will rush through your job leaving your vehicle unsafe to drive 👌 Shelby, a welder, is inexperienced and makes more mistakes than she does repairs, the other shop manager, Miguel, is nice to your face while he is taking your money, but won’t answer your calls or emails when you realize the hack job his employees have done, and don’t bother trying to contact the owner Jerry because he has no idea what actually goes on in his shop because his shop managers lie to him and talk poorly about him behind his back. Don’t let them fool you, they are no longer the only rust repair shop around!

I got a 2005 Tundra from a car dealer. I found a lot of frame rot on the inside front of the frame. The car dealer was great and sent it to Auto Rust Technicians. Miguel was my contact. They found more rot than I found. Miguel said two weeks and the dealer said ok he would pay. It was not clear if the truck would be done in two weeks or started in two weeks. It was less than two weeks and I called to get a date of completion. They said it would be done the next day ahead of schedule by 4 days. Auto Rust Techs did a great job ahead of schedule. If I have and Frame rust problem on any car or truck I have ill be going to them. In my opinion they are the best. Thankyou Auto Rust Technicians!!

Great experience with Auto Rust - would definitely recommend (and have already!). My 2004 DC Tacoma was suffering from serious frame issues and these guys brought it right back from the brink of extinction. Theyre super busy, so expect to book a few weeks out, but my project was done on time and on budget. I worked with Miguel and he was responsive, polite, and knowledgeable. Thanks, Auto Rust, for saving my truck!

The crew at auto rust is amazing! Took my 98 dodge pick up to get the spring mounts and the front of the frame welding and patched up and they did an amazing job for a very good price. They went above and beyond and went though the whole truck, bleeding my brakes, fixing a throttle cable, and installing a few other parts for me. I highly recommend auto rust to anyone that needs fabrication or welding done on any of their cars or trucks!

Took my vehicle to another shop to finish the job that was only half done. Second shop looked inside of my running boards and found all kinds if rust and rot that was just welded and bondoed over. Parts used were for a different year than my truck. Having to have the entire job redone. Waste of money do not go to this shop

I missed the Toyota recall by 3 months. I had 2 holes on the frame to body mounts. I knew by friends that have had work conducted there that they are the best. Not only did they do a great job but Miguel’s is and genuine guy and I wanted to get the frame blasted but he said that it was in very good condition and could hold off for several years. How many would just take the money and do the job anyway! Awesome place second to none and worth every penny! Will be back and continue to let others know where to get rust repair done right.

Brought in my 2003 Tacoma for what I thought was just a small section of rot. A thorough review revealed 3/4 of the passenger frame rail (trans to rear shock) were pretty rotted. We also noticed the cross member by the transmission was decayed. Miguel gave me a very honest price. The work was done and it looks great. I just returned from a ski trip and the truck actually felt more solid.. it was tank like. I didnt expect that at all. They also applied fresh undercoat to the entire frame. The repairs were on time and according to the quote. There were no surprises. If you have a Tacoma good drive train and a rusty frame dont scrap it. These guys can handle it.

Very nice and knowledgeable crew! I bought frame safe t caps from them a few years back but had a friend do the welding and undercoat and now, years later the pieces look just as good as the first day.I just went back to them now and had a different part of my frame replaced with their safe t caps, this time hiring them to weld and undercoat. The welds came out great and they did a nice job of undercoating the parts they replaced. Miguel did a great job of updating me on its status and even sent me picture of the work done through out the process.The work was done fast and the estimate they gave me before they started was spot on. I would highly recommend and i will definitely use them again in the future for other frame repair needs.

If I could give zero stars, I gladly would! Absolutely horrible experience with this business. Took our 2007 Dodge truck here for undercoating. They had the truck for almost a week, had several conversations with Miguel and even wrote in black sharpie on the rockers to blast and coat out to the rockers. Went to pick up the truck and the rockers werent done, found several bare spots, left aluminum foil underneath and had a wire ripped from underneath that went to the back up camera. They painted the rockers and tried to hook the wire back up but stated that the camera still didnt work. When I asked what they were going to do to fix the camera they said that they arent mechanics and they cant fix it. Then I was told that they arent liable for that kind of stuff. No where in the shop or contract does it say that they arent liable for damages. They also stated that they arent used to working with newer vehicles like that with extra wiring underneath. The sign in their shop says that they will earn you as a life long customer...thats far from the truth. Very disappointed in this business.

Brought my 99 jeep in for repair. What a great job! I could notice the difference as soon as I drove away, how tight it felt. All the welds look great and the undercoating was very thorough. They came in right on the estimate and time that was quoted. Couldnt be happier!!

Fixed the cracked and rusted frame on my 1970 Dodge Challenger Convertible. Flawless professional welds, and the new frame parts look factory fresh! (Thanks Mike!) Very detail oriented service with the most friendly knowledgeable staff. Great price for what you will be getting here. Nice that Jerry (owner) is a Mopar fan too! Will definitely recommend these guys to all of my friends and fellow car fanatics.

I drove to Rhode Island for the holidays to visit family and my 2002 Altima had incredibly rusty floor boards (to the point it was not safe to drive). This place saved my car (I love the thing and except for its rust problems it still ran like a dream).Wasnt sure what to expect, but they were able to quickly fix my car by cutting out ALL of the rust and replacing everything and they even added the undercoating so it wont re-rust! Im very happy I took my car to this place and I highly recommend this place! My car runs so much more quieter and smooth now, made the drive home from Rhode Island much more of a pleasure!

The owner, Jerry provided horrible customer service. Items shipped to wrong address so I asked for half of my $70 shipping fee to be refunded. Jerry responded with a nasty email. Rude and unprofessional.....

Jerry has aligned himself with a great team here.These guys know what they are doing and do it well.There is no reason for 1 or 2 stars, those are either fake customers or uninformed customers.I traveled 200 plus miles one way to have Auto Rust install their unique Safe-T-Caps on my First Generation Tacoma.They saved another one!Sure I could have bought the parts from them and had them shipped, and have a local/closer welder do the work.Why would I do that when the shop that invented the concept is in RI?Northern NH to RI the trip was well worth it.Dont trust the ratings, do your own research on Jerry and his shop, and you learn what I did.These guys are the real deal.Jeeps, Landcruisers, and Tacomas being worked on when I went for my vehicle check and price estimate.Sure its not cheap, but if you truly love your ride and want it to last, then you have to make a decision.I am pleased with the work, and they came in a touch under the estimate, who does that?!? Most shops come in over the estimate.They basically reframed my Taco at half the price of a complete reframe from a dealer. Plus the Safe-T-Caps have better drain holes than OEM frames, and are made from American Steel.No reason not to come here.Check the online forums, thousands of owners have bought and used these caps.Jerry & Miguel are no joke.Well worth the 3 trips I made from my Gen 1 Tacoma double cab.

I was just in there today June 13th 2018, and I have to say that the team was extremely friendly and great to talk to and as far as the work goes, when I drove my car home which had dropped down on the left side, it actually felt stronger than before the incident happened, I recommend these guys to anybody in the area... I traveled 20 miles just to get to these guys and it was worth every last cent of gasoline hahaha✌👍👍👍

These Guys are the Best in the business! Monte and I drove up from Boston to meet these Pros. They give him a thorough assessment and considering hes the last of his kind (1988 Chevy Montr Carlos SS) I knew it would be extensive beyond their usual scope. But they took him in! And I drove him home with new rear body mounts which had rotted out, a new frame to protect our gas tank and rust protection undercoat. Basically we got the works from some Extraordinary talented and caring guys. I hope to see you guys next year 2016 for phase 2!

I don’t do reviews normally but I have to give these guys the full treatment. I was told by a mechanic that I should not drive my 2001 Takoma (what else). I shopped the internet and came across Auto Rust. Drove to there shop for an estimate. Left the truck over the weekend. Much to my surprise I received a call on Tuesday that the truck was done and for less than the estimate. That has never happened before. Can’t say enough good things about these guys.

Drove all the way up to ART from NJ to have the ‘originators’ of the safe-t-cap do their thing and restore my Jeep TJ. Turn-around was quick. Less than a week. They also stuck to their estimated price and went beyond, extending the repair area to get the job done thoroughly without charging extra. Very happy w the outcome. This was approx 3 years ago and Im still rust free. Maintenance is key, as you should continue to lubricate your frame seasonally, as well as washing off salt and snow residue via regular car washing during the winter season. I truly appreciate Auto Rust Tech’s skilled staff and the effort put into my repair.

Really great work! I brought my 2000 Jeep tj in to replace the two main center beams, and they did a great job, welds are professional and really nice, and with the undercoating it is perfect! The owner and employees are very nice and helpful, would recommend auto rust technicians to anyone withrust build up on there frame or anywhere elts underneath, I believe you can also order the frame peices too if u want to do it your self. They can do frames on many cars/trucks not just jeeps.
