Scratch repair: your Stratus
For your 2001 Dodge Stratus, scratch repair starts with a short request. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Size and finish
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
The request
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Ask anything about the work in the request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
A rental while we work
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
What affects the price
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. We price the job before we start, never after.
On the day
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
Looking after it afterwards
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
Timing
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
Your move
Tell us about the car and the work, and we take it from there.
Request scratch repair
Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
