Great Experience - Great Work. Unlike most places, I didnt need an appointment. I just stopped in and got a thorough and detailed estimate. The estimator took his time and ensured that no detail was missed. They told me the repair was going to take 5 days and it took them 4. They were diligent in their communication and follow up. Everything about the experience made it easier for the customer. The repair was top-notch and looks like new. This place is a off the beaten path Hidden Gem. Highly Recommended.

I had a fantastic experience from the first initial call with Sheri to get an estimate to the great customer service with Allison. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and did a great job on the repair that need to be done on my car. They provided a very welcoming environment and feel you are being taken care of. I wish more companies were as great and efficient as them. I would recommend them to anyone who needs work done to their car.

Ive been going to Wallys CARSTAR for quite a few years; quality service, great people. Im a veteran and they support veterans with a substantial discount, but even if they didnt, Id go there. Sherry (the owner) has gone with my veterans group to many school presentations in support of us.

I have been bringing our cars here for the past 20 years. Best place... they always get it right. They are quick but the work is quality work. My daughter just had an accident and you would never know. Thanks Sheri and the rest of her staff.

I got hit during Stop and Go traffic. My insurance company suggested this place for the body work and I couldnt be happier. They did a fantastic job and at a reasonable price (say for instance if I ever have to go back and the insurance doesnt pay for it. Cough) They were also really cool with my kids. I couldnt recommend them enough.

I was in a hit and run accident and took my car here. Not only did the fix my car very quickly but they cleaned the whole car interior and exterior. Allison and Rob provided great customer service as well! I would and will recommend taking your car into this shop.

I got rear ended a few weeks ago. The other party’s insurance was responsible . In any case, my initial plan was to go somewhere close to home, but it was inconvenience for me since they all closed at 5 or 6. I was referred By a friend to go to Wally’s car Star.Their response time was very fast, they had my car ready fairly quick and they were excellent in communication. They did an excellent job with my car and the process was completely hassle free.Thank you !

The body work is excellent and comes with a nationwide warranty. But what impressed me most is the great customer service. All the people I interacted with are pleasant, they washed my van when done with the repair work, and the receptionist gave me a ride home after I dropped the van off and picked me up when it was ready. Highly recommended!

Couldn’t have been more happier with the whole experience! Rob and Allison are great people, they are very transparent and set proper expectations so I could coordinate the rest of my week. I was very happy with the communication letting me know what the status of the repair was. They ended up completing the job a lot sooner than expected and I can’t even tell there was ever any damage to my vehicle! If you need good honest body shop work done, look no further! Thank you guys! Highly recommend Carstar in Des Plaines

Wallys Carstar in Des Plaines is where I would recommend that you take your car. They were able to complete the job in record time today. They are very professional, friendly and thorough. Allison at the front desk is great, too. --They are special! special! Marie O.

Good work. However rear window broken on inside. May have missed during body work, I was not aware. Should be covered since it was part of accident.I took the car back and Brian was able to work with the insurance company and this was resolved. I am a very happy customer. Well done Brian and Wallys. You have a customer for life.

Wallys is absolutely the best. I got in an accident and my insurance wanted me to go to one of their recommended shops. But my Dad has just used Wallys to fix his car and it came out AMAZING so I decided to call Wallys. And I am so glad I did! They made sure from start to finish my car was fixed the right way and even when they found more work that had to be done as a result of the accident that wasnt on the original insurance claim they went right ahead and fixed it. Sherry and her team were so kind and thoughtful and kept in contact with me every step of the way! I couldnt be happier. Thank you Wallys CarStar! I will be returnng for all my auto body needs from now on!

Had a small incident in a parking lot... Very small damage, but enough to get fixed. Not sure where to go, so I asked around. Got referred by a good friend and told me to ask for Rob A.Glad I did...By far the best auto repair experience I have had.From the first phone call, to dropping off the car, and finally picking up... VERY PROFESSIONAL.Not only did Rob do a great job walking me through the process, but it was nice to see the owner actually working in the business. Shows a real dedication and commitment to quality.No one ever wants to need this kind of repairs, but it is nice to know these guys are around. I would HIGHLY recommend.Scott C - Northbrook

Why would you go anywhere else? Ive gone to Wallys for over 10 years and always been satisfied with the service and work done. On recommendation of my insurance company, I went with another business named after baby food. What a mistake. The other guy wouldnt own their mistake. Think baby food in Arlington Hts. The car knocked, leaked, and had several issue after being repaired. Needless to say I went to Wallys and begged them to fix another guys problem.Pros Rob and Sherry have worked their forever, you wont see new people every day. They take ownership of what ever job they take on. Expect nothing but perfection the first time around and excellent communication. They discovered missing seals, a broken shock and bent control arm after the car was supposedly fixed elsewhere. They worked with the insurance to get the car back to its original state and I sat back, knowing its in good hands. I love driving my car again. Thank you Rob and Sherry!!!!!!We always wish we could find an honest business, fair prices and easy to work with. You found it at Wallys Carstar. Dont be a fool like I was and try something new when youve got perfection already here.P.S. They gave me no grief for going elsewhere, they just stepped up and helped. Im forever your customer as long as you exist!

This business was very professional and friendly. They were efficient with communication and were even willing to hold my car after it was ready when I was out of town. I would absolutely recommend this business to others.

Absolutely A+I got into a minor accident, roughed up the right side of my car. I was able to just drop in for an estimate. I gave them my insurance claim ID and they took everything from there. They gave me a very detailed quote outlining all of the pieces that needed to be fixed, as well as a timeline, and when I could drop it off. They were a bit busy, so it took a few weeks to get in, but my car was 100% driveable so no worries there. When I came to drop off my car, I told Alison I would be getting a car from Hertz and she phoned them right up to send a Lyft for me. I was original quoted about 11 business days of repairs, but got it back in just 7 business days. Even better is that they have a great relationship with Hertz (and probably many other rental companies) you can drop off your rental with them and be on your way with your own car. I think my was cleaner when I got it back than the day I bought it!

Rob, Alison, and Sherri at Wallys are the best! I was recently rear-ended, and I dont know what I would have done without them helping me work through all of the issues that come with such a terrible accident. They knew exactly what to do to deal with insurance and find a rental car while they worked on mine. I would definitely recommend Wallys to anyone who needs help with fixing their vehicle.

Alright let me start by saying that this is the best experience I’ve ever had with an auto repair shop. Their service and attentiveness is just out of this world, the ladies in the office are so fun you almost forget that you’re even waiting for anything. My car only took 2 days to repair and when I picked it up, to my surprise, they detailed cleaned almost every inch of my car including the inside! I felt like i was getting my car for the first time all over again. Also, if you go there just ask about the bundt cakes. Oh the bundt cakes. All in all I would travel out of my way through all the construction JUST to visit them again 😁

I had body work done here after an accident. These people are EXCELLENT. The whole outfit is first rate. I was taken care of by everyone I came in contact with at Wallys, from the front desk to the back area, and always with friendliness, professionalism, and respect. I hope I never need body work again, but if I ever do, Wallys Carstar will be the place I go. Period.Well done, Wallys!!!

A tree cleaning construction truck was passing by my wifes car and scratched her whole side with a branch. Fortunately scratch was not very deep so this was a simple fix for this shop. I was taken care of promptly and professionally. As soon as I returned to take my car back, I noticed they missed a spot, my service guy came out and fixed the issue right on the spot. I will definitely be coming back should I have any body shop needs in the future. Thanks

Wallys did an excellent job repairing my car after a front-end accident. They were extremely efficient, friendly and made the whole experience much easier than I thought it would be. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Thanks, Wallys!

Ive decided that I will no longer be driving anytime during March from now on because once again my car (only 6 months old) was hit in March! Of course I brought my car back to Wallys Carstar because there is no other place I trust and it was a low stress, friendly, and helpful experience! The team there is so incredibly enjoyable and my car looks brand new once again. 2 out of 2 times they exceeded my expectations!

Would not recommend this place, insurance gave a check of about $7,000 to pay for all costs of the vehicle repair. Went to go pick up the vehicle and drop off the rental. Man working at the front desk who had a horrible attitude asked for a insurance deductible of $250. Luckily we did not have any money on us and we had to leave with the rental and pick up our vechile the next day. Called the insurance company cause they specifically said they will pay for ALL costs, turns out this places plan was to take extra money out of our pockets.These people are a bunch of cowards. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL!!!

I had a flat tire one very cold morning and it just happened I pulled over at Wally’s. Nic the Production Manager was kind enough to lend his helping hand and changed my tire (which by the way it’s not their normal service) to a stranger/non-customer at NO COST! Im so grateful for their service, I highly recommend this place for I know they will go ABOVE AND BEYOND on their job. Again big thanks Nic, youre such a good samaritan.

If you are going there to get estimate for insurance be careful. They give you higher estimate, but then make adjustments and send lower one to the insurance. Make sure you get the final estimate at the same time you are there.

I asked for a car estimate. It was more than an estate i got from my car dealer. Greed.
