Windshield repair: the 1997 Dodge Ram
Book windshield repair for the 1997 Dodge Ram, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. A small chip in the windshield can often be repaired before it spreads into a crack.
The car itself
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. There are 8 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
How to request it
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Need a car meanwhile?
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
How long you are without it
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price.
Pricing, plainly
The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.
Aftercare
A repaired chip should not spread, but have any new crack looked at early. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Before you drop the car off
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
