Arranging the work for the Chevette
Engine repair for your Chevrolet Chevette: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your Chevette and the shop
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Chevette.
The steps
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You approve the shop's quote before any work. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
A car meanwhile
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. 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.
Before the shop starts
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Small things that help
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell.
Over to you
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
Request engine repair
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.
