Booking the work for the DeVille
The 1997 Cadillac DeVille needs windshield repair? Send photos and when it suits you. A small chip in the windshield can often be repaired before it spreads into a crack.
Size and finish
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. With a length of 5.33 m, it counts as long. Measure your parking spot or garage first. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Your request
Ask anything about the work in the request. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
Keep your week on track
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
After the work
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
On the day
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
When the car is ready
If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
How the price is set
If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.
