This page covers rust repair for the 2005 Dodge Stratus, and a rental while the car is with us. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Stratus, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
The request
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
A rental means the work does not stop your week. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
A few things first
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. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Aftercare
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
How the price is set
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
How long you are without it
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
