The 2015 Ford Explorer: Emissions test
Your 2015 Ford Explorer needs an emissions test? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
Your Explorer and the shop
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Explorer. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic.
The steps
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
Your rental while you wait
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. The rental is priced like any other on our site. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Good habits for your car
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Talk to a person
Ask in your request, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
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.
Rent a car while yours is in in Toronto
