Towing: how we help
Searching for towing for the 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse? CarmaCars does not do this work itself; we arrange it with a trusted shop. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Details the shop needs
If you have the service history of your Eclipse, have it ready for the shop. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The powertrain here is the 2.4L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
What CarmaCars does here
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
Your rental while you wait
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. The rental is priced like any other on our site. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Talking to the shop
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Between shop visits
Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Ready when you are
Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
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.
