Mechanic: how we help
For mechanical repairs or maintenance on the 2012 Chevrolet Express, CarmaCars arranges it with a trusted shop or connects you with one; the work is done by the shop, not by CarmaCars. Routine maintenance and repairs are done by a mechanic at a shop we trust, not by CarmaCars.
About your Express
If you have the service history of your Express, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them.
Our part and the shop's part
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
Keep moving meanwhile
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself 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. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.
When you know your dates
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
Request mechanic
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.
