Arranging the work for the Seltos

For a tow on the 2021 Kia Seltos EX, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop; the work is done there, not by CarmaCars. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.

Your car, your notes

Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Seltos. The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT).

How the arrangement works

The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You approve the shop's quote before any work. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.

No car? Rent one meanwhile

The rental is priced like any other on our site. We collect the rental when your car is back. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.

Talking to the shop

Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.

Between shop visits

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. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
