Battery boost: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for battery service on the 2011 Lexus GS we arrange a trusted shop. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your car, your notes
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. If you have the service history of your GS, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid is what moves it, with rear-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date.
Keep moving meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We collect the rental when your car is back. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
A short checklist
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Car care, briefly
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Let us know
Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
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.
Rent a car while yours is in in Toronto
We have no car while yours is in on the site right now. Request one and we look for it for your dates, or take a similar car that is available now.
