Disassembly

Full disassembly will ensure that all damage is identified, and the correct parts and labor are documented on the initial estimate.
Work with your Mentor and Service Advisor to identify all parts requiring removal and replacement.
Fully disassemble all damaged parts and parts needing removal for access for refinish. Separate them from the non-damaged parts.
Work with your Service Advisor to fully document all items needed for repairs, these should include:
- Damaged parts
- Repair times
- Labor to R&I or R&R components
- Refinish/blend time
- Mechanical operations
- ADAS calibrations
Accurately documenting repairs to the vehicle is critical to both a complete repair, as well as a profitable estimate.
Take a photo of the vehicle you are working on, showing complete disassembly.
