Your car, your notes
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.
How we help
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. The rental is priced like any other on our site. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Good habits for your car
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Before the shop starts
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Send a request
A request is free and gets a reply within one business day.
