Emissions test: how we help
Your 2016 Mazda Mazda3 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.
About your Mazda3
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. If you have the service history of your Mazda3, have it ready for the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car.
What we arrange
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Before the shop starts
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Small things that help
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
Make a request
Start with the car, the job and your location.
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
