Auto repair for the 2000 Ford Explorer
Book body repair for the 2000 Ford Explorer, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. This is body repair. Mechanical work such as engines, brakes and oil changes is not part of it.
What your car means for the work
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. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
The request
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
Keep driving meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Aftercare
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
A few things first
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
How long you are without it
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
How the price is set
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
