Arranging the work for the 500
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For a diagnostic check on the 2018 Fiat 500, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Before the shop sees your 500
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. 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. Its 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo drives through a 5-speed manual.
The steps
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You approve the shop's quote before any work. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Car care, briefly
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.
Ask us
A short request starts it: 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.
