Default Scratches on my car-fix at dealer or shop


Hi everyone, I have a 2017 Ford Escape S, and today it was scratched today by one pillar at the parking lot on the area near the right rear tire as the picture above shows. Do you guys know should I bring it to the local dealership where I brought it or try to find a individual shop, which is normally cheaper? Thanks a lot!

Welcome to the site..

Sorry to hear about the damage.
Not a lot of the dealers have bodyshops anymore, at least around here. Your dealer could probably steer you to a shop that they use for minor repairs. Is does happen.. Or, shop around for shop quote and estimate.

Thanks! The dealer I brought this car from seems to have "service" tab on their website and I decided to check it out tomorrow to see what price they offer to fix it and along with two local shops.

Most dealers have a mobile service for minor issues they use, or have shops that they use for more significant damage that a mobile unit can't cover or fix..
