Arranging the work for the Escape
Your 2012 Ford Escape needs battery service? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Your Escape and the shop
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The engine is the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT).
What we arrange
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
Your rental while you wait
The rental is priced like any other on our site. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Between shop visits
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Before the shop starts
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Want a price?
Ask in your request, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
