A rental while yours is in the shop
CarmaCars does not do this work; you keep driving while the shop has your car. We deliver a rental to you, by the day, at our usual rates.

Arranging the work for the tC
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For mechanical repairs or maintenance on the Scion tC, we connect you with a trusted shop. Regular maintenance keeps small problems from turning into large ones.
Your car, your notes
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the tC. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request.
How the arrangement works
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Small things that help
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Check that all lights work every few weeks. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Ready when you are
Describe the problem, and we arrange a trusted shop.
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.
