Booking the work for the Tribeca
Book rust repair for the 2012 Subaru Tribeca, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Tribeca, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
How to request it
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. You can add a rental to the same request.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
Before you drop the car off
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
Why prices differ
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
Planning around the work
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price.
