Arranging the work for the Optima
Towing for your 2019 Kia Optima: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Details the shop needs
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. If you have the service history of your Optima, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive.
Our part and the shop's part
Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
A car while yours is in the shop
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Car care, briefly
Check that all lights work every few weeks. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
What to ask
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Ready when you are
Start with the car, the job and your location.
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.
