Windshield repair for the 2016 Kia Optima
Here is how we handle windshield repair for the 2016 Kia Optima: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. A small chip in the windshield can often be repaired before it spreads into a crack.
What your car means for the work
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
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. You can add a rental to the same request.
A car while yours is in
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
How the price is set
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job.
How long you are without it
Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
After the work
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
A few things first
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Ready to ask?
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
