Arranging the work for the Encore
For an emissions test on the 2015 Buick Encore, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
About your Encore
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. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. It uses the 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive.
Who does what
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
A rental while you wait
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
A short checklist
Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Small things that help
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Ask us
