Towing: how we help
For a tow on the Ford Tempo, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Details the shop needs
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Tempo.
Our part and the shop's part
You approve the shop's quote before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
A rental while you wait
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. The rental is priced like any other on our site. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Before the shop starts
Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. 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
Check that all lights work every few weeks. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
One more step
Start with a short request; 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.
