Rons Body & Paint in other cities:
Tow truck driver was very friendly and helpful... when he showed up.I used this businesss winch service when I got stuck on the side of the road while traveling to a relatives funeral. They ended up leading me on over the course of an hour and a half and three phone calls as to how far away their tow truck was. I even turned down the help of several other people while waiting for them. I later found out from their driver that they never even sent a truck to me. The driver who helped me just happened to be returning from another job when he spotted my car on the side of the road. I feel lied to by this business and would not recommend their service to anyone.
My truck broke down in the 81N and I was connected with Ron’s Autobody through my Insurance co. I was soooo scared being on the side of the highway but I was picked up within 15mins!! I also had my car serviced and was back on the road in 2hours!! The prices were very fair ... I was a little nervous being that I was in an unknown area and desperate situation. Thank you so much for your honesty and great work :)
My daughter ran out of gas during a snowstorm on her way home from work. A friend picked her up to get gas and although she left a note that she would be right back, her car had been towed. She called in the morning to pick up her car. It could not be released because the police officer worked nights and he had to release it. I asked if I would have to pay for an extra day and was told no by the police. Even though I was available and able to pick up the car in the morning the car was not released for two days. I came to pick the car up Saturday morning only to find out Ron’s is closed on the weekend. Ron’s charged a 20 year old student $480 for the towing and storage even though she tried to get gas and come right back. Ron’s would not work with me and I would never get any work done there.

2021-12-30They were helpful and efficient. We popped a tire, they were able to get us in immediately to get us back on the road within an hour. Superb service, especially with three small children and two dogs in a car.

2021-06-06For a short period of time I trusted these guys. They seem to be capable of handling simple things like wheel mounting, balancing and alignments.Then I had wheel bearings replaced at the shop in Marathon. When I called them and told them that there was still an issue with the car the next morning they told me that I was wrong and that I could bring it back in but it wouldnt be for another week. Since Im not a fan of wasting money on routine maintenance like brakes and so on and so forth I went to go do my brakes this afternoon 4 days after having the work done there and realized that while changing the spindle assembly for my wheel bearings they shredded a CV boot and installed old spindle nuts on that werent properly crimped or torqued, and noticed the CV shaft on the right side (the one that was wobbling) has roughly a quarter inch of play and is slinging grease inside my right tire. I wont be bringing the car back to them. My wife and child drive in this vehicle everyday. Also earlier this winter I was stuck in the parking lot at work less than two miles down the road from their shop and called them for a tow after I personally witnessed their tow truck driver standing in the gas station parking lot not even filling the tank. Almost 2 hours later he seemed to be fraternizing with somebody he knew instead of helping people when hes getting paid exorbitant amounts of money during a snowstorm. All I needed was a winch out. It seems like its hard to find a good mechanic these days.

2020-12-06They have been great and will try to get you in as soon as possible. I have used them befor for mine and my wifes car both under insurance claims and theyve been very helpful and kind, they are usually speedier than the big companies near by too. The women at the front desk was very courteous and understanding in a stressfull situation.

2019-11-23Service was done quick. Thats the only good thing I have to say. This company takes advantage of people in stressful situations. I was charged $140 just to have my car unlocked, and I was within a few miles of their location, so its not like they had a long drive to get to me. It took the technician more time to fill out the paperwork than it did to unlock the car. The fact that I paid $140 for five minutes of service is highway robbery. They should be ashamed of themselves for how much they charge people.

2019-06-13I called Rons a week ago for some car repairs. Michele was very pleasant and got in the next day for a look. I made arrangements to bring my car back on a Sunday and pick up the rental car. Chris met me there on his day off so I wouldnt have to miss work. Picked up my car and it was Beautiful and back to normal. They even cleaned my car inside and out. My experience with there shop has been wonderful and if I ever need body shop work done, they will be the ones doing it.

2019-04-10Very impressed! I had a tire blow out when I was running late to work. Called AAA and Rons was sent. Shane Gleason arrived in less than 30 minutes. I thought the car would need a tow, but he got the tire changed out with the spare without incident. Rons also got me a new tire the same day for only $150 WITH SERVICE, and offered me an appointment the same day. Your hard work is much appreciated!

2019-07-15Fantastic service! We blew out a rear tire on our RV which also ripped off the exhaust support bracket (pretty scary on RT 81). We limped off the nearest exit of RT 81 and called Triple A. A service truck from Rons arrived within 15 minutes and directed us to the shop which was only about a half mile from where we had ended up. The service people were friendly and professional and in no time, had mounted the spare and re-attached the exhaust system so we could get back on the road safely to reach our destination. Thanks again Rons!
