Collision centre for the 1997 Dodge Stratus
Collision centre for your 1997 Dodge Stratus? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work.
The car itself
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
From request to appointment
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Getting the car ready
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Pricing, plainly
The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
When the car is ready
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Keeping it that way
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
