Towing: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a tow on the 2013 BMW X3 we arrange a trusted shop. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
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. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Its 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo drives through an 8-speed automatic.
Our part and the shop's part
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Stay on the road
We collect the rental when your car is back. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Good habits for your car
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Ready when you are
Start with the car, the job and your location.
Request towing
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.
