Your car, your notes
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
Who does what
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Keep moving meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Car care, briefly
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
Talking to the shop
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Next step
Start with the car, the job and your location.
Request tire change
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.
