The 2017 Toyota 4Runner: Towing
Need a tow for your 2017 Toyota 4Runner? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Your car, your notes
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 4Runner. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Under the hood: the 4.0L 6-cylinder and rear-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
A car while yours is in the shop
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Good habits for your car
Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Getting a clear quote
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.
Talk to a person
Send a request: the car, the problem and when suits you.
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.
