The 1987 Dodge Shadow: Safety certificate
Need a safety certificate for the 1987 Dodge Shadow? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. Only a licensed inspection station can issue a Safety Standards Certificate in Ontario.
Before the shop sees your Shadow
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Power: the 2.2L 4-cylinder; drive: front-wheel drive.
How the request works
We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. 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.
A car meanwhile
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Car care, briefly
Check that all lights work every few weeks. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Before the shop starts
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Ask us
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
Request safety certificate
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.
