Booking the work for the Escape
Here is how we handle paint work for the 2018 Ford Escape: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
What happens after you ask
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
Stay on the road
We collect the rental when your car is ready. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
How long it takes
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover.
What affects the price
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
On the day
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Aftercare
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
