Why European Auto Collision?

Natasha G. is a local in Riverside and is fairly new to the area. During Spring Break, in which she nicely relaxed from intense Chemistry classes at UC Riverside, Natasha found out that one of her friends was in the hospital. It turns out, the friend also happened to be at Desert Regional Center, which was located in the hotter Palm Springs area.

While Palm Springs is known for being a tourist area, the weekend wasn’t going to be one of leisure, even with the infamous “Coachella Fest” coming up on the calendar. In deep urgency during the darkest part of night, Natasha and her roommate Hannah headed over to the hottest part of Riverside County, sharing the 2010 Hyundai Accent given to Natasha as a going-away college gift. The car, admittedly, wasn’t in the best condition, with leftover Starbucks lattes in the sturdy cup holders and stacks upon stacks of graded papers on the floors. Other than that, the vehicle was fairly new with no serious problems ever occurring. With the drive only being a 2-hour round trip, what could go wrong? The two women made sure the gas tank was full before going on the nearly-empty freeway.

As they expected, they safely arrived at the hospital, with their friend’s prognosis being so optimistic that he was going to be released the next day; relieved, they stayed for a few hours in good spirits before returning to the Hyundai Accent. It was around 3 am when they went back inside the car, quickly stopping by a gas station to get some iced coffee before going back on the 10 freeway. As Hannah slept on the passenger side, Natasha smoothly drove the car, hands both on the steering wheel. She felt peaceful as she saw the bright lights glimmer from the lively casinos, watched as the windmills seemingly blended into the sky shortly before merging on the 60 freeway. She also had no problems driving through the winding roads in the mountains before finding herself back in Moreno Valley.

It was when they were near University Avenue that Natasha began to feel that something was wrong; her car seemed like it was going to break down. It sputtered and jerked to the point where it was scary. She gazed at the windshield, only to realize that she was so busy with her schedule that she forgot to get an oil change. Nervous, she parked the car in front of her apartment, waking up Hannah before they quietly walked upstairs.

The next day, Natasha urgently went to get her car repaired. Being new in town and being in a rush, she went to the first body shop she saw. She found out that she had very little coolant, needed an oil change, needed her spark plugs replaced, and needed a small part of her transmission replaced. Shocked at the cost, she reminded herself that she was the only one who had a car within the apartment she lived in, so she had it repaired the same day.

Months later, Natasha began to find problems with her car again, and was dismayed at the fact that its light blue exterior was already looking faded. She didn’t want to go to the same place she went to again; Hannah finally bought herself a used car from a friend, but seemed so happy with the repairs. She had saved up enough money to have the engine restored, and was pleased at the results. “I had it done at European Auto Collision,” she said.

Natasha observed the car, which was a 1997 Honda Civic. It was in great shape and what was behind the good even looked new. She quickly looked on her phone, entering “European Auto Collision” in the search bar. She immediately found out that the place had nothing less than a 5-star rating on Google reviews, which was extremely rare in her eyes. She also noticed that she didn’t need a major event just to get service, but could also go in for her basic car needs, such as the periodic oil change and coolant. Natasha also found out that Hannah had a lifetime warranty on her engine parts, and that if she wanted her light blue Hyundai repainted, then European Auto Collision would match the original color.
On top of all that, Natasha found out that there was 24-hour towing service within a 10-mile radius of European Auto Collision, meaning that her car could’ve been towed for free in order to get repairs. Not only was convenient, but it was also safe and secure.

Armed with knowledge, Natasha finally brought her car to European Auto Collision. Not only was her car maintained, it was also painted in order to make it look new; a lifetime warranty was given for that service alone. Friendly, honest customer service was what Natasha received, and for sure, she would be going back for any of her car repairs and inquiries!
