Emissions test: how we help

Emissions test for your 1981 Chrysler LeBaron: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.

About your LeBaron

Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare.

Our part and the shop's part

We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.

No car? Rent one meanwhile

Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.

Between shop visits

If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.

Before the shop starts

If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.

Questions first?

Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.

Request emissions test

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.
