What we arrange

A rental while you wait
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Talking to the shop
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Car care, briefly
