Your 2016 Ford Focus: the work
For the 2016 Ford Focus, rust repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
About your Focus
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. There are 11 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
What to send us
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
A car while yours is in
Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. 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. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Aftercare
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
On the day
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
How long it takes
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Why prices differ
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
Next step
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
