Mechanic: how we help
The 1981 GMC Forward Control and mechanical repairs or maintenance: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. Tell us what the car is doing, and we find a shop suited to the job.
Your Forward Control and the shop
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Forward Control. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request.
How the arrangement works
We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
A car meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We collect the rental when your car is back. Delivery starts at $0 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Car care, briefly
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Talking to the shop
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
When you know your dates
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
