Arranging the work for the Van
Your 1985 Toyota Van 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.
About your Van
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.0L 4-cylinder. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder with rear-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
How we help
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. 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.
Small things that help
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Next step
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.
