Collision center: your Explorer
Collision center for the 2017 Ford Explorer: send a request and a person replies with a price and a time. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request.
What your car means for the work
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. There are 14 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Your request
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. A rental means the work does not stop your week. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Aftercare
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
What affects the price
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.
What to bring
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
Planning around the work
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
