Size and finish
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 7 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.

We collect the rental when your car is ready. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
On the day
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.

Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
Keeping it that way
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
