Arranging the work for the ES
For battery service on the 2018 Lexus ES, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Before the shop sees your ES
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your ES, have it ready for the shop. The engine is the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT).
What to send us
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
A car while yours is in the shop
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
A short checklist
Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Between shop visits
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
Let us know
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
Request battery boost
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
