Arranging the work for the Relay
For a tow on the 2005 Saturn Relay, CarmaCars arranges it with a trusted shop or connects you with one; the work is done by the shop, not by CarmaCars. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
Your Relay and the shop
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Relay. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The 3.5L 6-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
What CarmaCars does here
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
A car while yours is in the shop
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Small things that help
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
