Safety certificate for the 2004 Lexus LS
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For a safety certificate on the 2004 Lexus LS, we connect you with a trusted shop. A used car you buy in Ontario needs a Safety Standards Certificate before it can be plated.
Details the shop needs
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. If you have the service history of your LS, have it ready for the shop. It uses the 4.3L 8-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
From request to repair
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
A car meanwhile
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Small things that help
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Questions first?
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.
