Arranging the work for the RX
The 2013 Lexus RX and a tow: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. 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. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Under the hood: the 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid and front-wheel drive.
Who does what
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Between shop visits
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Ready to ask?
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
Request towing
