Arranging the work for the Rio
Need a tow for your 2018 Kia Rio? A trusted shop does the work, not CarmaCars, and we keep you driving meanwhile. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Your Rio and the shop
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. If you have the service history of your Rio, have it ready for the shop. The powertrain to know here is the 1.6L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.
Who does what
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Your rental while you wait
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Between shop visits
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. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Before the shop starts
Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up.
One more step
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
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.
