Serving Pennsauken, NJ
Your trusted auto repair and body shop near Pennsauken.
Pennsauken is one of Camden County's largest and most diverse communities, stretching from the Delaware River to the eastern side of the county. AutoBlast in Audubon is about 7 miles from central Pennsauken — a 12 to 15 minute drive down Route 130 or the White Horse Pike, depending on which part of the township you are coming from.
With major roads like Route 130, Route 73, and the Betsy Ross Bridge approach running through Pennsauken, vehicles here see a lot of road time and a lot of wear and tear. Commuters heading into Philadelphia, delivery drivers, and everyday commuters all need a reliable mechanic they can count on. AutoBlast fills that role with comprehensive auto repair services — oil changes, brake jobs, engine diagnostics, transmission service, AC repair, and tire work. When body damage happens, we handle that too: collision repair, dent removal, full paint jobs, and frame straightening.
Pennsauken drivers choose AutoBlast because we combine two shops in one, which means you do not have to drive your damaged car to a mechanic and then tow it to a body shop. Everything happens at our facility at 21 S. White Horse Pike in Audubon. We start every job with a free estimate and handle insurance claims directly. For Pennsauken residents looking for dependable, no-nonsense auto care in Camden County, AutoBlast is the smart choice.
Route 130 has a shop on every block. Here is what we do differently
Crescent Boulevard is Pennsauken's garage row. Tony's Auto Service, Mike's Garage, Kasten Automotive and Johnson Auto Repair sit within a few blocks of each other on Route 130, and Pride Paint and Bodywerks, Collex Collision and Caliber Collision cover the body side. Good shops. For a quick brake job or a tire, close beats far.
Pennsauken drivers who make the drive to Audubon usually come for one of three things. Dents fixed without repainting: paintless dent repair for door dings, hail and parking-lot dents when the paint is intact, typically $75 to $150 for a small ding and $300 to $600 for a crease, measured in hours rather than days. A collision that needs body and mechanical repair in one place, meaning collision repair plus the suspension, A/C or electrical work behind the damage. And an insurance claim handled by the shop instead of by you.
The route: Route 130 south to Route 30, the White Horse Pike, then west into Audubon. Or Cove Road to Haddon Avenue to the Pike. From Delair and the Betsy Ross side, Route 90 to Route 130 south. We are at 21 S White Horse Pike, in the Sunoco station lot, about 7 miles and 12 to 15 minutes from central Pennsauken.
Airport Circle, Route 73 and the bridge approaches
Pennsauken's crash spots are the interchanges. Airport Circle, where Routes 130, 38 and 70 come together. The Route 73 approach to the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge. The Route 90 ramps to the Betsy Ross Bridge. And the truck traffic in and out of the warehouse corridors along Route 73 and Route 130. The typical result is a rear-end hit or a lane-change swipe: bumper, quarter panel, mirror, headlight.
Bumpers are the most common Pennsauken body job. Industry repair data puts a cosmetic scuff at $150 to $500, a cracked cover replacement at $400 to $1,000, and a full replacement with parking sensors and camera at $1,500 to $3,500 or more. Bumper repair here includes the sensor and camera recalibration that newer cars need after the cover comes off. Truck debris on 130 and 73 also means windshield chips; glass repair covers chip repair, full windshield replacement and the camera recalibration behind it.
Pickups and work vans from the Route 73 and Route 130 industrial parks get the same free written estimate as anyone else, and the same one-shop handling for body and mechanical damage.
Insurance, police reports and choosing the shop
New Jersey requires a crash to be reported when anyone is hurt or the damage is more than $500 (N.J.S.A. 39:4-130); in the township that is the Pennsauken Police Department. Get the report number, photograph both cars, exchange insurance cards, and do not commit to a shop at the scene. Under N.J.S.A. 17:33B-30 you choose the repair shop in New Jersey, whatever the adjuster suggests.
Then start the estimate. Send photos through the free collision estimate page for a first read, bring the car in for the teardown look, and you get written pricing before any work starts. If the insurer's first estimate misses damage found at teardown, we file the supplement and bill the insurer directly.
Mechanical repair on the way home
Pennsauken is a commuter township: Route 130 and Route 38 to Cherry Hill, the bridges to Philadelphia, the Transit Center for the rail lines. We are on the way home for the southern half of it. Drop the car on the Pike in the morning and pick it up after work. A full synthetic oil change with the free multi-point inspection is about $75. Brake repair, tire service and engine diagnostics for check engine lights are the everyday jobs.
The Delaware River side of the township gets the worst of the winter salt. Rocker panels, wheel arches and exhaust systems go first. Rust repair and exhaust repair done early cost a fraction of what the same job costs after the metal is gone.

Questions Pennsauken drivers ask
Can a dent be removed without repainting?
Yes, when the paint is intact. Paintless dent repair works the metal back from behind the panel and leaves the factory paint alone, which is why it is the least expensive dent fix: about $75 to $150 for a small ding and $300 to $600 for a crease in South Jersey. Hail damage is the classic case, and our hail damage repair cost guide explains how that is priced. If the paint is cracked or scratched, the dent needs traditional dent removal and paint.
How do I get an estimate from a body shop?
Send photos first. Our collision repair estimate page takes photos of the damage and gives you a first read at no charge. Then bring the car in so we can look behind the panel, because the parts you cannot see in a photo are where estimates go wrong. You get written pricing before any work starts. There is no charge for the estimate whether or not you book the repair.
What is the average cost for auto body repair?
For the jobs Pennsauken drivers bring us most: a paintless door ding is $75 to $150, a crease is $300 to $600, a dent that broke the paint is $400 to $1,500 or more, and a bumper runs from $150 to $500 for a cosmetic fix up to $1,500 to $3,500 or more for a full replacement with sensors. The car door dent repair cost and bumper repair cost guides go line by line.
How do I negotiate with an auto body shop?
You do not negotiate on safety items, and a good shop will not either. What you can do is compare written estimates line by line, ask whether the parts are OEM or aftermarket and why, ask how supplements are handled if hidden damage turns up, and ask for the warranty in writing. AutoBlast puts the warranty on every repair in writing and explains the OEM versus aftermarket choice before you decide.
What is the difference between an auto body shop and a collision center?
A collision center leans toward structural repair and insurance work. A body shop also does the everyday jobs: dents, bumpers, scratches, paint and rust. AutoBlast is both, and the mechanical shop attached to it is what most body shops on Route 130 do not have.
