Arranging the work for the Explorer
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For a tow on the 1993 Ford Explorer, we connect you with a trusted shop. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Your car, your notes
If you have the service history of your Explorer, have it ready for the shop. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The 4.0L 6-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
How we help
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
Stay on the road
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We collect the rental when your car is back. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Between shop visits
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
A short checklist
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Talk to a person
Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
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.
