Rust repair for the 1997 Mercury Sable
Book rust repair for the 1997 Mercury Sable with a short request, and rent a car while yours is in. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
The car itself
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking a time
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
A rental meanwhile
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
On the day
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
When the car is ready
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
Pricing, plainly
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
After the work
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
