The 1997 Nissan Maxima: Towing
For a tow on your 1997 Nissan Maxima, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. 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 Maxima, have it ready for the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 3.0L 6-cylinder. Its 3.0L 6-cylinder drives through a 4-speed automatic.
How the arrangement works
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. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
A rental while you wait
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
A short checklist
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Car care, briefly
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
Talk to a person
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
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.
