Towing: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a tow on the 2006 Saab 9-7 we arrange a trusted shop. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.
Before the shop sees your 9-7
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 4.2L 6-cylinder. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 9-7. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The powertrain to know here is the 4.2L 6-cylinder, with all-wheel drive.
How we help
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
A rental while you wait
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We collect the rental when your car is back. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Talking to the shop
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. 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.
Good habits for your car
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Check that all lights work every few weeks. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
When you know your dates
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
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.
