Collision centre: the 2013 Buick Encore
Here is how we handle collision repair for the 2013 Buick Encore: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. 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.
About your Encore
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Your request
Ask anything about the work in the request. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. You can add a rental to the same request.
Keep driving meanwhile
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
A few things first
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Aftercare
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Why prices differ
We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.
How long it takes
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
