Compare Ford Kuga accident repair quotes from specialist garages

Ford was the first carmaker to introduce a vehicle assembly line, speeding up the process of production and bringing cars to more people than ever before. The brand's motorsport credentials are equally impressive. In the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans race, Ford ended Ferrari's six-year winning streak, beating the likes of Porsche and Lamborghini to the title with an ever-popular GT40.

Jim Morrison, the lead singer of rock band The Doors, famously adored his 1967 Ford Shelby GT500, the only car he ever owned. It is a mystery to this day where the vehicle ended up after his death.

The Ford Kuga, a compact SUV that debuted in 2008, has become a leader in the crossover segment, earning praise for its safety and design features. In 2013, it was awarded the Euro NCAP Advanced Award for its Active City Stop technology, which calculates the risk of hitting a slow-moving or stationary object and pre-charges the braking system for maximum responsiveness.

More recently, the Kuga was crowned 'Mid-Size SUV of the Year' at the 2020 Auto Express Awards, reflecting its enduring popularity. Common issues with the Kuga include coolant leaks and keyless locking issues.

Car accident repair services ensure your car is repaired to the highest standard without compromising safety. Common types of damage following an accident are a missing/damaged bumper, cracked windscreen, car frame damage, scratches and disjointed doors. As such, repairs often include dent removal, body repairs, scratch removal, bumper repair and paintwork.

Minor crash repairs may involve purely cosmetic fixes. On the other hand, if your car sustains severe damage, the repair cost of which your insurance company deems high compared to the value of the vehicle, it may be written off. Category C and D (old salvage code) and N and S (new salvage code) write-offs can still legally be repaired, although the cost of doing so is usually high, and the value of the car will be diminished.

It isn't a good idea to do a car damage repair job if you're not a trained mechanic; instead, it's best to book an authorised car accident repair centre.
