J&F Chatsworth Autobody

Can’t say enough about this place. Amazing service, reasonably priced, and FAST.
I dropped my car off with two minor dings in the right door panel this morning at 8am, got a call that it was ready at Noon. Great service, and Vinny was personable and helpful — good dude.
Really happy to have found a body shop I can trust. Thanks!

Great place. I agree with the other reviewers. I trust these guys. Had a recent case of a scrape that one guys said would be $ 900 to fix — they did it for less than half.

Let’s start with one word: Trust. I trust this autobody shop. Let me give you two instances: one, I had a flat on my BMW (run-​flat Potenza — they used to cost about $ 400 each). Dropped it off and I had a call back to me within an hour that these tires were cheaper nowadays and I got it installed and ready by 6 for less than half of what I used to pay. Two, my car doors stopped locking/​unlocking and the FOB didn’t work on anything but the trunk. I’ve researched this as an actuator issue. I dropped off my car with the expectation I’d have a large bill coming. Turns out it was a best case scenario and the fuse for the actuators blew. Car was ready within an hour or so and I picked up as I walked off the train (as I commute to work in the city — this is also a MAJOR convenience). Finding a trustworthy mechanic is one of the harder challenges of life. If you find yourself starting here, consider yourself lucky. If you end up here, better late than never.

Can’t say enough positive things about Vinny and his father, who have been running J&F for decades. They are reliable and honest and every time they have fixed my car it has been quicker and easier and cheaper than I had anticipated. Great service. And lollipops for the kids don’t hurt either!

The best. Friendly, honest, and they always look after me. I’ve been bringing my old Volvo here for 10 years and they still keep it running in great shape.

these guys are awesome. there is no way around it… they can do everything and are all good honest people. i drive from a few towns away now, and with the convenience of getting the larchmont train it cant be beat.
a plus.

I’ve taken all my cars to J&F Chatsworth garage for maintenance for over 20 years. It’s a family business run by talented, honest mechanics. If you just need a new radiator hose they won’t sell you a new radiator.
A plus is that they are right next to the Larchmont Metro North Station. So it’s convenient to drop off the car before work and pick it up on the way home.
They can service cars still under warranty cheaper than the outrageous prices from the car dealer shops. As long as you use official parts, it won’t affect the car warranty.
I’ve had everything from inspections to oil changes, new brakes, new tires, new axels, to auto body work after an accident. Joe and Vinny never disappoint. And they even wash your windows when you fill up the gas tank!
