Arranging the work for the Explorer
The 1994 Ford Explorer and a tow: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Details the shop needs
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Under the hood: the 4.0L 6-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
From request to repair
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
Keep moving meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
What to ask
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
Car care, briefly
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
Talk to a person
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
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.
