Engine repair: how we help
Your 1990 Mazda MPV 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.
Before the shop sees your MPV
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.6L 4-cylinder. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Power: the 2.6L 4-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
What we arrange
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A rental while you wait
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Car care, briefly
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. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Getting a clear quote
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Still deciding?
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
Request engine repair
