Booking the work for the Avenger
Your 2012 Dodge Avenger and rust repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Avenger, up close
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. You can add a rental to the same request.
A rental meanwhile
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
On the day
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. 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.
Pricing, plainly
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
Timing
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
After the work
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.

Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
