Arranging the work for the Model S
Your 2015 Tesla Model S needs a tow? 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.
Your Model S and the shop
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. If you have the service history of your Model S, have it ready for the shop. It uses the electric motor and all-wheel drive.
What we arrange
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
A car meanwhile
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Delivery starts at $0 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Before the shop starts
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Good habits for your car
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Next step
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
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.
