Towing: how we help
For a tow on the Pontiac 6000, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Before the shop sees your 6000
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 6000. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare.
Our part and the shop's part
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Talking to the shop
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Between shop visits
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Ready to ask?
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.
