CARSTAR hit its North American milestone of 600 locations with the opening of CARSTAR Sudbury (Autoworks). 

The brand new and state-of-the-art CARSTAR Sudbury (Autoworks), located at 440 Falconbridge Road in Sudbury, is owned and operated by local automotive dealers Vince Pollesel and Vince Palladino.

“Opening a collision repair facility made sense for us at this point, and it’s been an incredibly natural fit as CARSTAR holds a trusted reputation, known for providing premier services with dedicated team members,” said Vince Pollesel. “The CARSTAR support, coupled with the outstanding team lead by devoted Managers Steve Primeau and Phil Chartrand, will produce an unparalleled service to our Sudbury community.”

This massive groundbreaking facility is just under 1858 sq m (20,000 sq.ft.) offering full collision and glass repair. CARSTAR Sudbury is aluminum ready, proficient in scanning and even equipped with stations for oversized vehicles.

“Hitting milestones like this cause me to take a moment and reflect on how we got here—and it’s really because of our phenomenal network filled with franchise partners like Vince Pollesel and Vince Paslladino,” said Michael Macaluso, CARSTAR President.

“When you walk into CARSTAR Sudbury (Autoworks), you can see the pride they take in their work with the pristine premier facility they’ve built. It’s incredibly humbling to have people like this wanting to join the CARSTAR network as they see our values aligning.”

Deeply community minded, Vince Pollesel and Vince Palladino, have historically contributed to the local hospital foundation. Now that they are a part of the CARSTAR network, both Vince Pollesel and Vince Palladino have said they are eager to add Cystic Fibrosis Canada fundraising into their repertoire.
