Collision centre: the 2016 Subaru Forester
This page covers collision repair for the 2016 Subaru Forester, and a rental while the car is with us. 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 Forester
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
The request
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Stay on the road
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Pricing, plainly
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly.
How long you are without it
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.
After the work
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.
Getting the car ready
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
When you know your dates
Start with photos and a short description.
