Mechanic: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For mechanical repairs or maintenance on the 2018 Lexus ES, we connect you with a trusted shop. Tell us what the car is doing, and we find a shop suited to the job.
About your ES
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. If you have the service history of your ES, have it ready for the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. It runs the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive.
Who does what
Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
A car while yours is in the shop
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Small things that help
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Getting a clear quote
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
Make a request
Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
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.
