Towing: how we help
Need a tow for your 2008 Lexus SC? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Details the shop needs
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Power comes from the 4.3L 8-cylinder, driving through a 6-speed automatic.
Who does what
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Keep moving meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Good habits for your car
Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Talk to a person
Describe the problem, and we arrange 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.
