Towing: how we help
For a tow on the 1997 Chrysler Sebring, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Before the shop sees your Sebring
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.0L 4-cylinder. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The 2.0L 4-cylinder does the work, through a 5-speed manual.
The steps
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Good habits for your car
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
A short checklist
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.
Get an offer
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
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.
