Arranging the work for the Expedition
Your 2012 Ford Expedition needs a diagnostic check? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Your Expedition and the shop
If you have the service history of your Expedition, have it ready for the shop. 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. The engine is the 5.4L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic.
What CarmaCars does here
You approve the shop's quote before any work. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Small things that help
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Ask us
Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
