Core Service

Collision Repair

Every collision is different. Every repair we perform is built on the same foundation: factory procedures, OEM parts, and technicians trained on the vehicles they repair. No shortcuts. No “good enough.”

From minor fender-benders to severe multi-panel damage, our team has the certifications, tools, and experience to bring your vehicle back to the way it was built — not just the way it looks.

  • Bumper, panel, door, and quarter panel repair
  • Genuine OEM replacement parts (never aftermarket without your approval)
  • Computer-measured alignment and panel fitment
  • Multi-point quality inspection before delivery
  • Lifetime workmanship warranty on every repair

We Handle The Hard Part

Insurance Assistance

You shouldn’t have to fight with your insurance company. That’s our job. We work directly with every major carrier — handling photos, supplements, paperwork, and follow-up calls so you can focus on getting back to your life.

And remember: you have the right to choose where your vehicle is repaired. Insurance companies can recommend a shop. They cannot require you to use one. Choose the shop that works for you.

  • Direct work with every major insurance carrier
  • Claim documentation and photo submission on your behalf
  • Supplement negotiation when additional damage is discovered
  • Rental car coordination through your policy
  • Towing arrangement to our facility if your vehicle isn’t drivable

Professional automotive paint booth at Yokem Collision Center
Factory Finish

Paint & Refinishing

A great paint job isn’t about color alone — it’s about matching factory depth, gloss, and durability so the repair becomes invisible. Our refinishing process uses computerized color matching, OEM-approved paint systems, and a downdraft booth that controls dust and temperature to factory specs.

Modern automotive finishes are layered — basecoat, mid-coat, clearcoat — each requiring specific application and bake cycles. We follow each manufacturer’s spec, which means a Toyota Windchill Pearl gets the same treatment from us that it got at the factory in Kentucky.

  • Computerized color match using OEM paint codes
  • Downdraft paint booth with controlled airflow and bake cycle
  • Tri-coat and multi-stage finishes (pearls, candies, metallics)
  • Whole-vehicle resprays and color changes
  • Lifetime warranty against peeling, fading, and defects

Mechanical service work at Yokem Collision Center
Beyond The Body

Full Service Mechanical

Most collision shops can’t fix what they can’t see. We can. Yokem handles full mechanical repair under the same roof as collision work — radiators, suspension, steering, electrical, AC systems, and more.

This matters because a serious collision often damages mechanical systems too: a bent radiator, a cracked AC condenser, broken suspension components. Having a single team that can handle both means faster repairs, no shop-to-shop handoffs, and no “we only do bodywork — you’ll need to take it somewhere else for that.”

  • Suspension, steering, and alignment after structural repairs
  • Radiator, AC condenser, and cooling system repair
  • Electrical diagnostics and module replacement
  • Drivability and road-test verification
  • Complete repair without third-party shop handoffs

Auto glass replacement at Yokem Collision
Safety-Critical Repair

Glass Replacement

Modern windshields are part of your vehicle’s structural safety system. They contribute to roof crush strength in a rollover and provide the surface that airbags deploy against. Improperly installed glass compromises both.

We replace windshields and side glass to OEM spec, with proper urethane bonding, full cure time, and — critically — ADAS sensor recalibration for vehicles equipped with forward-facing cameras behind the windshield.

  • OEM and OEM-equivalent glass options
  • Proper urethane application and full cure time
  • ADAS recalibration for vehicles with windshield-mounted cameras
  • Side glass, rear glass, and quarter glass replacement
  • Insurance claim handling for glass-only claims

Paintless dent repair at Yokem Collision
No Paint, No Filler

Paintless Dent Repair

For minor dings, hail damage, and door dents that haven’t broken the paint, paintless dent repair (PDR) is faster, cheaper, and preserves your factory finish. No body filler. No repaint. No risk of paint match issues down the road.

Our PDR technicians use specialized tools to massage dents out from behind the panel, restoring the original metal shape. Your factory paint stays exactly as it was — which means your vehicle’s value, finish quality, and resale stay intact.

  • Hail damage repair across multiple panels
  • Door dings and shopping cart dents
  • Minor crease and round-dent repair
  • Factory paint preserved — no repaint required
  • Faster turnaround than traditional bodywork

Frame straightening rack at Yokem Collision Center
Structural Repair

Frame Straightening

Modern vehicle structures are precision-engineered. After a moderate or severe collision, the frame or unibody can shift millimeters out of factory tolerance — invisible to the eye, but enough to affect handling, tire wear, panel fitment, and crash performance.

Our frame rack uses computer-measured laser alignment to verify every dimension against the manufacturer’s factory blueprint. We pull the structure back to spec — not “close enough,” but exact OEM tolerance.

  • Computer-measured laser alignment to factory blueprint
  • Heavy-duty hydraulic frame rack capable of full-size truck and SUV
  • Unibody and full-frame vehicle capability
  • OEM weld diagrams followed for any structural repair welds
  • Pre- and post-repair measurement reports documented

ADAS calibration at Yokem Collision Center
Safety Systems Restored

ADAS Calibration

Today’s vehicles are loaded with safety technology — lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, blind spot monitoring. After a collision, glass replacement, or even an alignment, these systems often need to be recalibrated to factory tolerances. If they’re not, they may not work — or worse, they may work incorrectly.

We perform both static and dynamic ADAS calibration using manufacturer-specified targets, scanners, and procedures. This isn’t optional after most repairs. It’s how we make sure your vehicle’s safety systems perform the way they were engineered to.

  • Static calibration with OEM target boards in our dedicated bay
  • Dynamic (road) calibration when manufacturer-required
  • Pre- and post-repair scan reports documented
  • Calibration on Toyota Safety Sense, Honda Sensing, Hyundai SmartSense, and equivalents across other brands
  • Required after windshield replacement on most modern vehicles
The Yokem Difference

Every Service. One Team. Forty Years Of Experience.

Most body shops can do collision work. Some can do paint. A few can handle frame and ADAS. Yokem does all of it under one roof — with the same advisors, the same techs, the same factory-certified standards from start to finish.

That’s the difference between a body shop and a family-owned collision center that’s been serving the Ark-La-Tex for over four decades.
