Five Portland, Ore. Shops with 13 Locations Adopt FIX AUTO Brand

After a year of performance in the FIX AUTO Network, five Portland, Ore./Vancouver, Wash.-area collision repair shop owners have decided to adopt the FIX brand.

Artistic Auto Body, Auto Body Beautiful, Lukas Auto Painting & Repair, Inc., Mackin’s Auto Body, and Obrist & Cunningham West and East will brand their 13 business locations FIX AUTO Collision.

“Members of the FIX AUTO network represent some of the finest collision repair facilities in North America,” said Doug Kelly, FIX president and COO. “The FIX AUTO brand is extended to those members of the network that consistently deliver excellent results in quality, cycle time and customer satisfaction.

“By reviewing what our members do before the repair, performing regular audits during the repair process and surveying owners after the vehicle is delivered, we’re confident that the Portland group has consistently delivered outstanding service to their customers and earned the right to carry the FIX AUTO brand. We’re proud of our affiliation with the Portland group and see this market as a model for how top performing independent business owners can work together in the future.”

Said Terry Mostul, owner of Artistic Auto Body, “Co-branding with FIX AUTO provides our group the opportunity to communicate clearly with consumers and insurers the benefits of dealing with collision repair professionals. By now offering the convenience of 13 locations throughout the Portland metropolitan area, nationwide lifetime warranties, 24/7 support, pick-up and delivery service, rental car arrangements, towing service, and insurance-friendly relationships, we assure our customers of consistent, outstanding service at a fair price.”

Established in 1997 and headquartered in Anaheim Hills, Calif., FIX has 148 locations in the U.S. and 135 locations in Canada.
