The 1989 Eagle Premier: Engine repair
Your 1989 Eagle Premier needs engine work? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your Premier and the shop
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The 2.5L 4-cylinder, paired with a 4-speed automatic, drives it.
How the arrangement works
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Good habits for your car
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
Getting a clear quote
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Ready when you are
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
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.
Rent a car while yours is in in Toronto
We have no car while yours is in on the site right now. Request one and we look for it for your dates, or take a similar car that is available now.
