Rust repair: the 2006 Lexus RX
CarmaCars takes requests for rust repair on the 2006 Lexus RX, and rents you a car while yours is in. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
The car itself
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
How to request it
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Stay on the road
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
What goes into a quote
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
Keeping it that way
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
How long you are without it
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
A few things first
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Talk to a person
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.
