Where can I find Mercedes-Benz certified collision repair near San Diego?

Philip Thearle’s Autowerks is located at 8809 Mission Gorge Road, Santee, CA 92071. We serve Mercedes-Benz owners from Santee, East County, and communities throughout greater San Diego County.

Why should I use a Mercedes-Benz Certified Collision Center?

The Mercedes-Benz Certified Collision Center is designed to support manufacturer-specific training, equipment, and repair procedures. That helps the repair team account for the vehicle’s structure, electronics, and safety systems rather than relying on a generic approach.

Will my vehicle need scanning or ADAS calibration after a collision?

It may. Damage, glass replacement, bumper work, structural repair, or alignment can affect PRE-SAFE, cameras, radar, parking systems, steering, and networked electronics. We determine required scans, inspections, and calibrations from the vehicle, damage, and current manufacturer procedures.

Can I choose the collision repair shop if I have an insurance claim?

California vehicle owners generally may choose the repair facility. Tell your insurer you want Philip Thearle’s Autowerks to repair the vehicle, then call us with the claim information so we can explain the next steps.

Do you use genuine manufacturer parts?

The repair plan identifies Genuine Mercedes-Benz Parts, glass, adhesives, fasteners, and procedure-specified one-time-use components when required by the repair procedure and applicable authorization. We explain parts decisions and coordinate documentation with the customer and insurer.
