Emissions test: how we help
For an emissions test on the 2009 Mazda Tribute, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
Your Tribute and the shop
If you have the service history of your Tribute, have it ready for the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid, paired with an automatic (CVT), drives it.
The steps
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We collect the rental when your car is back. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.
Between shop visits
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
Questions first?
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
