CARSTAR, North America’s largest premier network of independently owned and operated collision repair facilities, proudly announces the continued expansion of the MGM Auto Group under the leadership of Mike Cherneta and Kapi Komera. The dynamic duo has now added CARSTAR Oshawa Drake Street and CARSTAR Oshawa North to their growing roster of high-performing collision centres.

With this latest acquisition, Cherneta and Komera now oversee nine CARSTAR locations across Ontario, including CARSTAR Mississauga 401, CARSTAR Brampton, CARSTAR Milton, CARSTAR Georgetown, CARSTAR Downsview, CARSTAR Woodbridge, CARSTAR Richmond Hill, and now CARSTAR Oshawa Drake Street and CARSTAR Oshawa North.

CARSTAR Oshawa Drake Street, located at 660 Drake St, Oshawa, ON, spans a well-equipped facility backed by a team of highly trained technicians. The shop is certified by leading OEM programs including FCA (Fiat, Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge), Kia, Certified Collision Care, Hyundai, Genesis, Nissan GTR, and more, ensuring vehicles are repaired to the highest manufacturer standards.

Just minutes away, CARSTAR Oshawa North, situated at 285 Taunton Rd E, Oshawa, ON, is actively pursuing OEM certifications and undergoing enhancements to align with the cutting-edge standards set across all MGM Auto Group locations.

Deliver the best-in-class service

“At every one of our facilities, our goal remains the same—to deliver best-in-class service that customers can trust,” said Mike Cherneta, Co-owner of MGM Auto Group. “We’re thrilled to bring that vision to the Oshawa market and look forward to serving these communities with integrity, expertise, and care.”

Kapi Komera added, “We’ve built a culture focused on quality, growth, and community involvement. With Oshawa Drake Street and Oshawa North joining the MGM Auto Group, we’re excited to continue making a positive impact for our customers and partners.”

The MGM Auto Group, a cornerstone of the CARSTAR franchise family for over five years, has consistently demonstrated excellence in operations, leadership, and community engagement, attributes that make them ideal stewards for these two new locations.

“Mike and Kapi’s leadership continues to elevate the CARSTAR brand,” said Collin Welsh, Senior Director, CARSTAR Canada. “Their commitment to innovation, customer service, and operational excellence is evident in every location they touch. We’re excited to see what’s next as they grow in Durham Region.”
