Your 2011 Dodge Ram: the work

This page covers rust repair for the 2011 Dodge Ram, and a rental while the car is with us. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.

About your Ram

If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. There are 10 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.

How to request it

Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.

A rental meanwhile

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. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

Timing

Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.

What affects the price

If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. We price the job before we start, never after.

Before you drop the car off

Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.

Keeping it that way

Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.

Get an offer

A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
