Arranging the work for the ES
Searching for towing for the 1998 Lexus ES? CarmaCars does not do this work itself; we arrange it with a trusted shop. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Your ES and the shop
If you have the service history of your ES, have it ready for the shop. 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. It is powered by the 3.0L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.
What to send us
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 the price with the shop before any work starts. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
A rental while you wait
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Good habits for your car
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
When you know your dates
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.
