Bumpers, fenders, paint and rust welding — plus the suspension work and oil changes that keep a Jersey City car driving straight. Tyson Auto Repair and Body Shop is the honest, no-runaround shop on Tyson Lane, open six days a week.
What we fix
Tap any row for the details. These are the jobs our customers write about most.
Cracked, hanging or pushed-in bumpers are replaced or reinstalled and lined up properly with the rest of the car. Reviewers mention new bumpers going on fast — one in about an hour.
A bent fender after a parking-lot scrape or a fender-bender gets swapped and fitted so the gaps look right again.
Fresh paint on replaced or repaired panels so the car looks like one piece instead of a patchwork.
Winter salt eats rocker panels and lower sides. Rusted metal is cut out and welded so the problem stops spreading.
Lower control arms, mounts, struts and shocks — the parts Jersey City potholes wear out first. Clunks and wander get tracked down and fixed.
Routine oil and filter service, done while the car is on the lift and someone experienced is looking underneath.
Right here in 07304
Most drivers end up juggling two places after a bad day on the road: a body shop for the crunched bumper and a mechanic for whatever got knocked loose underneath. Tyson Auto Repair and Body Shop at 15 Tyson Lane puts both under one roof, close to Communipaw Avenue and JFK Boulevard, so you explain the problem once and deal with one team from start to finish.
The neighborhood keeps us busy. Tight curbside parking from Bergen-Lafayette to the West Side means scraped corners and pushed-in bumpers. Winter salt works its way into lower panels until the rust shows through. And the potholes between McGinley Square, Greenville and Journal Square do steady damage to control arms, struts and shocks. Those are exactly the jobs our reviewers describe: new bumpers, fender replacements, welding on a rusted side, suspension mounts and arms, and plenty of oil changes in between.
What customers keep coming back to, though, is how the shop deals with people. Reviews mention transparent pricing, clear explanations, polite staff and quick turnarounds — including drivers from out of town who broke down nearby and got back on the road fast. Hower's name comes up again and again, and so do Cesar, Ray, Luis and Marcus.
If something on your car looks wrong, sounds wrong or feels wrong, call (551) 242-3332 or stop by Monday through Saturday from 8 AM to 6 PM. We'll take a look and tell you straight what it needs.
Why drivers pick Tyson
"Transparent," "honest" and "reasonable" are the words customers use. You hear what the job involves and what it costs before anything gets started.
Reviewers talk about expedited service, a bumper installed in about an hour, and a car dropped off last minute that was ready the next morning.
Hower and his crew — Cesar, Ray, Luis and Marcus all get named in reviews. You deal with people who know your car, not a call center.

Yes. Customers come to us for bumpers, fenders, paint and rust welding, and just as often for suspension parts, control arms, struts, shocks and oil changes. One shop, one conversation, one bill.
Call (551) 242-3332 or bring the car by so we can look at it. Every job is different, so we quote after we see the damage — and we explain what the price covers before any work starts.
Calling ahead is the best way to make sure the right person and the right parts are ready, but you are welcome to stop by during business hours, Monday through Saturday, 8 AM to 6 PM.
It depends on the job and on parts. Some work is quick — one reviewer had a bumper installed in about an hour — while paint and welding take longer. We give you a realistic timeline when we quote.
