Arranging the work for the MV-1
Your 2012 VPG MV-1 needs mechanical repairs or maintenance? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. Regular maintenance keeps small problems from turning into large ones.
Before the shop sees your MV-1
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The powertrain here is the 4.6L 8-cylinder with rear-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic.
Our part and the shop's part
You approve the shop's quote before any work. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
A car while yours is in the shop
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
What to ask
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Car care, briefly
Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Questions first?
Ask us, and we tell you whether we can arrange it.
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.
