First Time Trying Auto Body Repair - Epic Fail or Huge Win? 

Good for you for actually fixing stuff like this. My local Chevy dealer leaves tons of dents and paint imperfections in their cars, and it shows.

Liking the longer video!! Gotta say it’s nice from the consumer POV to see the owner doing the work to make sure the cars are good to go!

I'll be honest, this was my favorite video so far! You have become my favorite channel on RU-vid, ever since you started Mike's Car Store! Congratulations on all of your success and the best of luck and success for years to come!

I think this was one of your neatest videos. I would like to see more. Great Job!

Mike, it doesn’t surprise me that stand up guy like you would do a good will repair on that customers Jeep. That’s what sets you apart from all other dealers big or small. Keep up the great work and the informative videos. Cheers!

90 days!? Puke! What disgusting entitled expectation. Dude needed to fix HIS own radio on the USED car he bought. Its a Chrysler product so he needs to get used to it not working right anyway.

The King of Transparency

I like seeing the refurbishment work on the vehicles. Really need to work on lighting and or not do it half in the bay which caused the scene to be blown out. As far as the “good will” screen change out. I would expect you guys would have noticed a damaged screen like that before the sale. And given the persons comment about bringing it back, sure seems like they hit it and caused the damage and got you to fix it for free. I would not have gone for that unless I was really unsure if it did not have the damage when sold.

Great video; would love to see more videos of you fixing things!

Nice!! Im a used car dealer also and theres no better feeling than fixing something yourself and only paying parts cost lol

Ugh the delimitation is a huge problem on the Jeep grand Cherokee as well. I have heard that UConnect will often replace them as it is a very well known problem.

Good on you Mike! I like to see people get some technical chops, and what's even better, some of this stuff you will be able to spot when you're buying cars, and you will know right off the bat to account for that in your bid. Just an FYI - figure on changing that screen in each and every 2018 Chrysler - they ALL delaminate.

Always funny watching the boss get a taste of the real work that he thinks is simple and easy and just magically gets done 👍

I love the thinking outside the box to get vehicles ready to sell. I am pretty sure the market it tough right now and you want to do things right. Great job!

Turning an opportunity cost into opportunity profit.

I don’t know much about the costs and what can actually be done but I have seen some PDR guys do some amazing work on some stuff that you would have never thought possible. Could that panel not have been repaired or would it just have been more expensive to find someone good enough vs replacing the panel?

More repair videos please!

Why didn't you just pop that dent out? Thats a poppable dent! Pop it out and buff it out to make it shine. Sure, there might have been a couple of slight crease marks, but nothing that couldn't have been painted over and buffed to look new. But since you got a new panel, you can repair that old panel and then sell it for a few dollars to make some money back. For future endeavors.........if you have a local auto junk yard or "grave yard".......you can usually go and find the part you want, remove it from the junker yourself, and save a ton of money. I had a Chevy van once that needed some new door parts, and new parts were WAY out of my budget. So I found a local junk yard with some Chevy vans and found one the same model year as mine, removed the parts I needed myself......and was only charged a few dollars for each part. Put them on my van and everything was perfect again! And yeah, I'd love to see what else you can do to fix up the vehicles you buy!

I have to ask this. Bro, as a salesman I know you made some bucks lol. Are you doing okay? I'm late to the game but am definitely a fan of you. Though not in cars, sales is my profession. Lol just like you and the channel, I hope you're okay. Every video there seems to be a problem lol.

Yes want to see more!!! But as a salesman you expect things to be easy as butter but thru dat or them vehicles designs they kind of make simple stuff kind of complicated but still its fun to learn how to do it plus dats more moolah in your pockets when you sell em!

Hey Mike I just recently bought a 2017 Camaro 2SS and I’ve been having issues with my touch screen randomly clicking apps is there anything I can do to fix it ?

You're a good man for the screen replacement. CDJR has many vehicles whereby the screen delaminates.

Please, please, please consider opening a store up here in Columbus, Indiana. We do have a Chick-fil-A. I would bring you & Mrs. Chevy Dude lunch on your grand opening!

I wish I had your mechanical "intuition", mechanically, I have tried repeatedly to do minor repairs, oil changes, etc. but vis-a-vis such skills I'm the man who turned a million in real estate into 25 bucks cash.....I am envious

Heyy Chevy, really nice video, I was wondering if I can help you edit your videos better than this and also make highly engaging short. Btw love from India ♥️✨

Great job fam I love this site I wish u was around when I've traded my 07 honda accord wit only 1 more year . I've owe the bank b4 I've traded it in for a 2016 honda accord sport and got completely ripped off .

Re: window down - just apply 12v to the motor.... No need to struggle with bolts...

@5:40... Did you arbitrate the car? Did the auction give you some money back due to the undisclosed rust?

Everytime he says "I've never done this before" take a shot. 😆

Having worked at an auto body shop and done this kind of work, it was fun watching you do it for the first time. A little tip for getting a window down or up when there is no power is to use a jump box and a pick set. If the window has two wires powering it just find the wires on the harness, insert a pick in each slot, then hook up the jump box. You may have to reverse the picks if the window doesn't go the direction you want but you be able to loosen the bolts holding the window easier.

Awesome job Mr Mike. congrats on the repair jobs. What tool would someone use to remove a pinstripe? Keep up the good work. Say hi to the boss lol

Bully for you! This is what people expect to buy from a pre-owned dealer, not a POS.

Great job replacing the panels . With rust it's hard to get rid of . But next time you can take the door bolts off when you open up the door with hand wrench . Little faster .

If you get two gray metallic vehicles that actually match you are leading a charmed life. I worked in the collision industry for 44 years and I have only seen it a couple of times.

Great Job! Fix more and repost as fixing this on this vehicle and that vehicle so others looking will have help to do same Job!

Yes, love watching videos like this👍very informative. Great video.

UConnect (manufacturer of the screen) will warranty the delamination.

Yes. Love to see you fixing autos to make them right for the future owner, rather than bandaids just to sell.

You might as well keep fixing and video-ing; you're like 3 out of 3 so far!

Great video. I orginally did not think that you needed to do all of that to fix a little rust but after you took the door off.. I can definitely see the benefit of doing it the right way. BTW what are you doing with that old delaminated screen? If you still have it I would love to have it!!

there should be no confusion about a "90 day thing" ? Why is customer confused?

If I were you, I would try to sell more Honda and Toyota…. Less people bring things back 😳

That’s a Jeep compass not Cherokee, but amazing video

Replacing damaged body parts with paint matched part is fun isn't it! Those 2 rusted doors are still worth a nice chunk of change despite the corrosion.

Did you check the inside door controls on the Pilot? I've taken off a door panel and not correctly reset the hook up for the door latch, and found I couldn't get out! lol

Hey so I think the word your saying wala, that’s actually a term Filipinos can use to mean nothin. I think you meant to say voila (with a hard v) which is a French word that is like saying tada or here it is.

This is a great standard to set. If I came in with the radio and you sold me the screen at cost and you provided the laborer for free, I would have been satisfied.

I wanna see some repair videos on the C8!!! Where's that thing been, we haven't seen it since spring unless I missed something

Aw come-on XD Body Replacement. Idk how they do it the dent repair people!

Did you just start dip or have a dental procedure? Big fan and long time viewer

You should partner with @flyingwheels and do a video together

Mike the Mechanic! Sounds like a good job for you. 😂

That was pretty cool especially since you have continuous inventory it’ll always be something new

Fix more things in your videos because it shows us that they are simple fixes most of the time!

REALLY need to teach this kid 90 days is delusional 💯

Good you have lots patience’s great job👍🏻

Great job and great video!! Would love to see more Videos like this.

I would like to see you fix more things on cars you want sell.👍

Great job you saved on labor and you are selling a quality product

The wife is going to put you in body shop when she sees this video.! 😁All in fun!😀

You dud do well. I would like to see more videos of you repairing cars.

Something tells me Mike hasn’t done any of this before.

As bad as alot of people are at driving, minimalist solutions needed.

Good job good way to save money for your dealer ship and do it your self.

WOW! You now have an additional name = Fixit Dude!

🎉😊 yes love to see you fix things ,Goid job on your autobody

I like you tho man! You seem so authentic to me! Keep crushing it

I love this too. This type of content really grabs me in

My mechanic says new cars are made of Styrofoam and plastic

I think you need to include some costs and if it was worth it or not for your situation.

Excellent job , more videos like this please

Frank could have fixed all that in half the time! *LOL*

Like the longer videos. Fix more stuff 😊

Right on great content you should get into fixing more stuff

What about the rust over the the drivers side rear tire on the pilot?

Best video so far keep up the great work Chevy dude!!

Thank you for not sanding and painting over the rust.

Open the door and use a ratchet wrench and u can do it right in the door jam

It was kind of fun watching you fix stuff Mike.

Yes, show more repair operations. Good job.

Hook up power and you can roll up the window.

Throw a video in once in a while of this content.

Who is Brad? It says Brads car store on that sign in the shop

Hey can get mommy fixing stuff now!
