Booking the work for the Forester
CarmaCars takes requests for collision repair on the 2017 Subaru Forester, and rents you a car while yours is in. 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.
Size and finish
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a compact SUV, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking a time
Ask anything about the work in the request. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
A rental while we work
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
After the work
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
How long you are without it
We keep you posted if the timing changes. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Why prices differ
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
A few things first
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
