    Serving Burbank — 13 Miles Away

    Burbank drivers who need collision repair can have the car towed free to Leti Auto Works, 13 miles southeast in Downtown LA, at any hour. Our body shop handles the whole job — frame straightening, OEM parts, dent repair and computer-matched paint — and the insurance side: we file the claim with your insurer or the other driver's, handle every adjuster visit, photograph the damage and argue the supplements. Because losing a car can upend a production schedule, we coordinate your rental while the work is done. Every collision repair carries a lifetime warranty while the vehicle is yours.

    Collision Repair & Auto Body Work for Burbank

    Home to major film and TV studios — Warner Bros, Walt Disney, and NBC. Dense entertainment industry vehicle fleet.

    The I-5 cuts straight through Burbank and carries everything from local commuters to trucks bound for the Grapevine, so stop-and-go traffic and abrupt lane changes are routine. Rear-end crashes on the 5 often crush a bumper cover and the reinforcement behind it and can push a radiator support or frame rail out of position. We measure the structure, straighten what needs it and replace damaged parts with OEM components.

    Around the Media District, the studio lots along Olive Avenue and Alameda Avenue send crews and production vehicles onto the streets at all hours, and the roads near Hollywood Burbank Airport carry constant pickup and drop-off traffic. Fender benders at lot gates and tight turns inside parking structures are typical. For a scraped quarter panel or a dented door, we choose between paintless dent repair and conventional repair based on whether the paint has been broken.

    Downtown Burbank and Magnolia Park are walkable, parking-heavy districts where parallel parking and curbside loading lead to mirror strikes, door dings and corner scuffs. We match the existing color with computerized paint mixing and a spectrophotometer, then blend so the repaired area sits naturally next to the original finish. PPF, ceramic coating or window tint can follow once the body work is complete.

    Stuck on the 5 or a Burbank side street after a crash? Get somewhere safe, photograph the damage and ring (213) 282-8201 at any hour; the flatbed is free for collision clients, with typical response in 30–45 minutes. Your insurer may name a preferred shop, but under California Insurance Code §758.5 it cannot require it, so the car comes to us and we deal with the adjuster from there.

    Our body shop handles the whole repair: collision repair, auto painting, dent repair, bumper repair and frame straightening, with the insurance claim handled for you.

    Getting From Burbank to Our Shop

    The I-5 (Golden State Freeway) runs south from Burbank past Griffith Park and along the Los Angeles River into Downtown LA — the main route to our shop and the one our tow trucks take. When the 5 is backed up, the 134 east to the CA-2 south is the usual alternative. Expect 20–30 minutes.
