Arranging the work for the Trax
Towing for the 2016 Chevrolet Trax: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Details the shop needs
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Trax. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo is what moves it, with front-wheel drive.
From request to repair
Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
A rental while you wait
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Small things that help
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
Ready when you are
Ask, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
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.
