Arranging the work for the Value Van
For mechanical repairs or maintenance on the 1981 GMC Value Van, 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 car, your notes
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. If you have the service history of your Value Van, have it ready for the shop.
What CarmaCars does here
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. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A car meanwhile
The rental is priced like any other on our site. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Small things that help
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
Before the shop starts
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
Questions first?
