Arranging the work for the MX-5
Need a safety certificate for the 2017 Mazda MX-5? 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.
Details the shop needs
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the MX-5. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
A car meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Small things that help
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
Before the shop starts
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
