Towing for the 2012 Scion iQ
The 2012 Scion iQ and a tow: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.
Before the shop sees your iQ
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The 1.3L 4-cylinder does the work, through an automatic (CVT).
Our part and the shop's part
You approve the shop's quote before any work. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Car care, briefly
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Before the shop starts
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Next step
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.
