A rental while yours is in the shop
CarmaCars does not do this work; you keep driving while the shop has your car. We deliver a rental to you, by the day, at our usual rates.

Car diagnostics: how we help
For a diagnostic check on the Buick Regal, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Before the shop sees your Regal
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed.
From request to repair
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
Stay on the road
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Car care, briefly
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell.
Ready to ask?
Send a request: the car, the problem and when suits you.
Request car diagnostics
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.
