Emissions test: how we help
For an emissions test on the 2018 Volvo VNL, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. Emissions tests are required in some provinces and states; a licensed shop does the test.
Your car, your notes
If you have the service history of your VNL, have it ready for the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them.
How the request works
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
A car while yours is in the shop
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
What to ask
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Good habits for your car
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. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
