Your 2000 Mazda 626: the work
Rust repair for your 2000 Mazda 626? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your 626, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Your request
Ask anything about the work in the request. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Looking after it afterwards
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
How long you are without it
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.
What goes into a quote
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
A few things first
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
