Your 2016 Tesla Model X: the work
Your 2016 Tesla Model X 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 Model X, up close
Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 12 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
From request to appointment
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Ask anything about the work in the request. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Planning around the work
Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.
What affects the price
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Aftercare
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
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
