CARSTAR Expands Into South Dakota

CARSTAR Riverside Auto Body is fully equipped with the latest in collision repair technology, including high-tech frame systems, heated downdraft paint booths and environmentally friendly painting systems.

CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts announced it is expanding its reach into the Mount Rushmore State with the addition of CARSTAR Riverside Auto Body in Yankton, S.D.

The shop, which is owned by Tim and Sheila Steiner, is located just across the new Discovery Bridge on the Nebraska side of the Missouri River. While CARSTAR Riverside Auto Body is geographically in Nebraska, they serve the greater Yankton area.

“The reason I looked at joining CARSTAR is because it was getting to a point where you need to be part of something bigger,” said Tim Steiner. “CARSTAR has so much to offer in terms of insurance relationships, buying power and support from all the other owners. It will be such a benefit to have owners from over 450 shops from which to pull ideas and advice. The way things are going in today’s industry landscape, you need more support than being on your own.”

CARSTAR Riverside Auto Body is fully equipped with the latest in collision repair technology, including high-tech frame systems, heated downdraft paint booths and environmentally friendly painting systems. They were the first collision repair shop in the Yankton area to “go green” with the switch to waterborne paint. Their team of professional technicians has more than 100 years of combined auto body repair experience.

CARSTAR Riverside Auto Body also offers insurance company-approved glass replacement, chip repair and paintless dent repair.

“We are excited to partner with Tim and Sheila Steiner to bring the most trusted brand for auto body repair – CARSTAR – to South Dakota drivers,” said Michael Macaluso, president, CARSTAR North America. “We are continuing to grow the CARSTAR network across North America with experienced industry leaders like the Steiners, and this allows us to continue delivering the highest quality auto body repairs and customer satisfaction.”
