A car while yours is in the shop
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Between shop visits
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
