Booking the work for the Optima
This page covers windshield repair for the 2017 Kia Optima, 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.
Size and finish
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a large sedan, it is a straightforward size for this work. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
From request to appointment
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. You can add a rental to the same request.
A rental meanwhile
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Getting the car ready
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
Planning around the work
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
Aftercare
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
What affects the price
We price the job before we start, never after. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.
