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 Taurus
For a safety certificate on the Ford Taurus, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. A used car you buy in Ontario needs a Safety Standards Certificate before it can be plated.
Your Taurus and the shop
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts.
Our part and the shop's part
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
What to ask
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Good habits for your car
Check that all lights work every few weeks. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Let us know
Ask, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
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.
