Probably not much difference between a loan from the dealer and a personal loan for a repair. You might want to see if a local credit union would refinance your current car loan to build in the repair, if you are going to go that route, assuming the repaired car has enough equity to cover the loan.
If the current value of the car (unrepaired) plus cost of the repair is greater than the value of the repaired car, it may not be worth doing the repair. May just want to cut your losses and move on, particularly if you a decent offer for as is.
