Damage we see most often on Playa Vista cars
Almost everyone in Playa Vista parks underground, and subterranean garages are unforgiving: tight helical ramps, concrete columns at bumper height and stall widths that leave no margin. We see scraped bumper corners, gouged rocker panels and kerbed wheels from those garages more than anything else. Above ground it is Lincoln Boulevard rear-enders, mirror strikes on the narrow streets around Bluff Creek and Runway, and the constant churn of rideshare and delivery vehicles double-parked outside the offices.

Insurance claims for Playa Vista customers
In California the choice of repair facility belongs to the vehicle owner. Your insurer may recommend a shop from its network, but you can bring the car here and your claim stays valid.

Playa Vista customers ask
Do you serve Playa Vista?
Yes. Playa Vista is about seven miles from the shop at 12911 Cerise Ave in Hawthorne, usually fifteen to twenty minutes.
How do I get to you from Playa Vista?
Lincoln Boulevard or Sepulveda Boulevard south past the airport, then east on El Segundo Boulevard. La Tijera Boulevard to La Cienega south is the alternative when Lincoln is backed up.
I scraped the car on a column in my building garage. Is that worth claiming?
Sometimes not. Column scrapes are often cheaper to repair than the deductible. Send us photos or bring the car in, we will price it, and then you can decide whether to involve the insurer at all.
Is the estimate free?
Yes. There is no charge for looking at the damage and explaining the options.
Do you work with my insurance company?
We accept all insurance companies. We prepare the estimate, send photos, speak with the adjuster and file supplements if hidden damage appears.
My insurer recommended its own network shop. Can I still come to you?
Yes. In California the choice of repair facility belongs to the vehicle owner. The insurer may recommend, but the decision is yours and the claim stays valid.

Yes, through a third-party towing partner, including after hours. Call (323) 661-6600.
