Collision centre for the 2012 Ford Explorer
Your 2012 Ford Explorer and collision repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. 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.
About your Explorer
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking the work
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Keep your week on track
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Getting the car ready
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Timing
We keep you posted if the timing changes. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
Keeping it that way
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
Why prices differ
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
