Towing: how we help
Need a tow for your 1999 Mercury Sable? A trusted shop does the work, not CarmaCars, and we 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
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The powertrain to know here is the 3.0L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.
Who does what
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. We collect the rental when your car is back. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Between shop visits
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Ask us
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.
