Your 2012 Suzuki Equator: the work
Scratch repair for the 2012 Suzuki Equator: tell us about the car, and a person replies with a price and a time. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Size and finish
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
From request to appointment
You can add a rental to the same request. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
After the work
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
How long it takes
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
Pricing, plainly
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
A few things first
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
