Hi there, I have a Honda Fit (2005). I recently was informed that the Chasis is corroding - not enough to discredit a WOF but something that does need attention soon. My question is what is the usual range of price for such a repair? I just want to know ahead of my dealings with mechanics so I know whether or not it might be better to look for an upgrade in car instead.

Thanks for any help!

Hi there,
The price would depend on what is required and how long it takes. It would be best to take the vehicle to a panel repairer and ask what is involved in rust treatment. It could be just a clean and treat required where they sand blast the surface rust off and spray a protective coating to stop the rust. https://www.aainsurance.co.nz/contact/centre-repairer-locator.html
