Car diagnostics: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a diagnostic check on the 1987 Mercury Sable we arrange a trusted shop. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Details the shop needs
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Its powertrain is the 3.0L 6-cylinder with front-wheel drive.
What we arrange
We follow up until the shop has the car 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 shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We collect the rental when your car is back. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Car care, briefly
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Check that all lights work every few weeks. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Before the shop starts
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Let us know
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
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.
