Your Stratus and scratch repair
For your 1997 Dodge Stratus, scratch repair starts with a short request. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
About your Stratus
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
How to request it
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Ask anything about the work in the request. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Getting the car ready
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
Aftercare
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Pricing, plainly
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Planning around the work
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
Make a request
A person reads every request and replies with the next step.
