The work on your Stratus
This page covers scratch repair for the 2000 Dodge Stratus, and a rental while the car is with us. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Stay on the road
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
What to bring
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.
When the car is ready
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Aftercare
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
How the price is set
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
