Towing: how we help
Your 1983 Lincoln Mark needs a tow? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Details the shop needs
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Mark.
How we help
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. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
A car while yours is in the shop
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used.
Between shop visits
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
