Engine Repair in Malcolm

Engine Repair: how we help

CarmaCars arranges engine work for drivers in Malcolm through trusted shops, and rents you a car meanwhile. The job: Engine repair, from a leak to a rebuild, by a trusted shop we arrange, not by CarmaCars. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.

From request to repair

Send a request with the car and what it needs. A person replies and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You deal with the shop for the repair itself, and with us for the rental. We tell you plainly when we do not know a shop for the job.

A rental while you wait

Rent the size of car you need for the days the repair takes. Keep moving with a rental while your car is at the shop, by the day at our usual rates. Prefer to collect it? Pickup at our Toronto location is free.

Small things that help

Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Check that all lights work every few weeks.

Questions to ask the shop

Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.
