Towing: how we help
Need a tow for your 2004 Volvo S80? 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 S80 and the shop
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. If you have the service history of your S80, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo. The 2.5L 5-cylinder turbo, paired with a 5-speed automatic, drives it.
Our part and the shop's part
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
A car meanwhile
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Before the shop starts
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Car care, briefly
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Let us know
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
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.
