Long-time Owners of All Line CARSTAR Announce Retirement

Bolingbrook, IL -- The long-time owners of All Line CARSTAR are announcing their retirement and transfer of business to Crash Champions Collision Repair. Teresa Kostick and her brother Michael Kostick bought the business from their father Tim in 2006. Tim Kostick started the business in 1970 at the Frontage Road location, joined CARSTAR in 1990, and moved to their current location in Bolingbrook in 1998. Teresa started as the CSR at 23 years old and Michael started as a painter at 17 for their Dad at All Line Auto Body.

All Line CARSTAR was awarded the Franchisee of the Year Award in 2002 which is the highest award in the CARSTAR system. Teresa served in many professional leadership capacities including as a CARSTAR National Advisory Board Member and a board member of the Bolingbrook Chamber of Commerce. Teresa and Michael Kostick have been an active part of the Bolingbrook community and it has been evident with their involvement with many non for profits, including: Community Service Council, H2O, Hines Fisher House, DuPage Township, The Levy Center and with the generous support from the community provided 4 vehicles full of groceries, clothes and everyday supplies to local families in the NABC Recycled Rides Program.

Their passion for the community is evident, and it is with a heavy heart they are saying goodbye to their business. “I am sad that we won’t be a daily part of this community, our employees and our business” said Teresa Kostick, “but we are very excited to have the opportunity to spend time with family, including my children and grandchildren.” Teresa states, “Even though my Brother and I are moving in a new direction, we will always be a part of the Bolingbrook community.”

This August, they are fortunate to hand over the reins to Matt Ebert, Owner of Crash Champions Collision Repair to continue their legacy of quality repairs, excellent customer service and community outreach. They thank everyone for their continued support throughout these years.
