The 2012 Ford F-250: Car diagnostics

Your 2012 Ford F-250 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 car, your notes

If you have the service history of your F-250, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request.

What to send us

We keep you posted until the car is booked in. 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.

A car while yours is in the shop

Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. 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.

Good habits for your car

Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Check that all lights work every few weeks.

Talking to the shop

Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.

Send a request

Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
