Rust repair: the 2014 Ford Explorer
For your 2014 Ford Explorer, rust repair starts with a short request. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Size and finish
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
The request
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
Stay on the road
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
After the work
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
Why prices differ
We price the job before we start, never after. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
A few things first
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Timing
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
Ask us
Tell us about the car and the work, and we take it from there.
Request rust repair
Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
