Your 2018 Ford Taurus: the work
Your 2018 Ford Taurus needs rust repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Taurus, up close
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
From request to appointment
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. You can add a rental to the same request.
Driving while yours is in
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
How long it takes
We keep you posted if the timing changes. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
Pricing, plainly
The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
Getting the car ready
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Keeping it that way
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
One more step
Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.
