Collision centre: your Tribute
Collision centre for your 2003 Mazda Tribute? Start with a request; 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.
Your Tribute, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. As an SUV, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Getting a price
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. You can add a rental to the same request. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
Need a car meanwhile?
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Getting the car ready
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
How the price is set
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. We price the job before we start, never after.
Looking after it afterwards
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
Timing
A clear timeline comes with every quote. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
