A rental while yours is in the shop
CarmaCars does not do this work; you keep driving while the shop has your car. We deliver a rental to you, by the day, at our usual rates.

Arranging the work for the Prizm
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for an emissions test on the Geo Prizm we arrange a trusted shop. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
About your Prizm
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts.
Our part and the shop's part
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
A car meanwhile
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Talking to the shop
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
Good habits for your car
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
Ask us
Ask, 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.
