Arranging the work for the 200
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For mechanical repairs or maintenance on the 2012 Chrysler 200, we connect you with a trusted shop. Routine maintenance and repairs are done by a mechanic at a shop we trust, not by CarmaCars.
Your car, your notes
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The powertrain here is the 2.4L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic.
What to send us
Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
What to ask
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
Car care, briefly
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
When you know your dates
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
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.
