The Customer Comes First — Really

Ask JR what sets Selecta apart, and he doesn’t hesitate: the customer experience. Not just the quality of the repair work, though that’s non-negotiable, but the transparency, the communication, and the understanding that getting your car fixed after a collision is already a stressful situation. His job, as he sees it, is to make that process as clear and painless as possible.

He’s also candid with customers about navigating the insurance landscape. His advice: ask questions, seek referrals from people you trust, and don’t simply take the repair shop recommended by your insurance company. “Insurance companies may suggest shops for their own convenience,” he explains, “not necessarily yours.” Coming from someone with decades of industry experience, it’s the kind of straight talk that builds lasting loyalty.

That commitment to honest service carries extra weight in a community like Bernal, where personal connections matter. JR has neighbors, friends, and property in this neighborhood. His reputation here is personal, not just professional.
