Tire change: how we help
For tire work on your 2012 Lexus IS, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. Storing your off-season tires is often something the shop can arrange.
Your car, your notes
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.5L 6-cylinder. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. It uses the 2.5L 6-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
From request to repair
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
Keep moving meanwhile
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Car care, briefly
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
What to ask
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Want a price?
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.
Rent a car while yours is in in Toronto
