Arranging the work for the Storm
For an emissions test on the 1990 Geo Storm, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
Before the shop sees your Storm
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Storm. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The 1.6L 4-cylinder is what moves it, with front-wheel drive.
What to send us
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. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
Stay on the road
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Talking to the shop
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Car care, briefly
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
Let us know
Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
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.
