Your Encore and windshield repair
This page covers windshield repair for the 2017 Buick Encore, and a rental while the car is with us. A small chip in the windshield can often be repaired before it spreads into a crack.
Your Encore, up close
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. As a compact SUV, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. Length: 4.27 m. Parking on city streets is easy. There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
How to request it
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Keep your week on track
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
When the car is ready
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule.
What to bring
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
What goes into a quote
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
Aftercare
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. A repaired chip should not spread, but have any new crack looked at early.
Next step
Start with photos and a short description.
