Engine repair for the 1997 Chevrolet Express: CarmaCars does not do this work itself. Request it and we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one, and we can deliver a rental car to you while yours is in.
A rental while yours is in the shop
CarmaCars does not do this work; you keep driving while the shop has your car. We deliver a rental to you, by the day, at our usual rates.

Arranging the work for the Express
Engine repair for the 1997 Chevrolet Express: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Before the shop sees your Express
If you have the service history of your Express, have it ready for the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed.
The steps
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
A car while yours is in the shop
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
A short checklist
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
Between shop visits
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Your move
Describe the problem, and we arrange 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.
