Can I Keep Driving My Car While I Wait for Repair Parts?

If your car is drivable

At Mashore Autobody, a drivable car stays with you until the parts arrive. Then you bring it back and we do the repair.

We would rather you keep your car and your routine than leave it parked at our shop for days while it waits on a delivery.

Why we do it this way

A repair has two parts: waiting for parts and doing the work. Only the second one needs your car. We schedule around your life, not the other way around.

When a car is not safe to drive

If the damage affects your lights, steering, brakes, or the structure of the car, it may not be safe to drive. When in doubt, call us before you drive it.

Next step

Call (925) 516-1930 or stop by 44 Sycamore Ave, Suite A in Brentwood, and we will look at your car. You can also read how we work, step by step, or our collision repair page.
