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 C-MAX
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for engine work on the Ford C-MAX we arrange a trusted shop. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Your C-MAX and the shop
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car.
How we help
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. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
Your rental while you wait
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Car care, briefly
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. 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. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Let us know
