Arranging the work for the VT
Need battery service for your 2012 Volvo VT? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your car, your notes
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the VT. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car.
What CarmaCars does here
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. 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. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Questions to ask the shop
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Small things that help
Check that all lights work every few weeks. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
One more step
Send a request: the car, the problem and when suits you.
