Engine repair: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For engine work on the 1997 Chrysler LHS, we connect you with a trusted shop. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Details the shop needs
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. 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.
The steps
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Keep moving meanwhile
The rental is priced like any other on our site. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Car care, briefly
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Still deciding?
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
