Emissions test: how we help
For an emissions test on the 1981 Dodge Ramcharger, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
Your car, your notes
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Ramcharger. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them.
What we arrange
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
Driving while yours is at the shop
We collect the rental when your car is back. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Between shop visits
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
Talk to a person
Ask us, and we tell you whether we can arrange it.
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.
