Arranging the work for the WCA
Your 1998 Volvo WCA 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 WCA and the shop
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request.
What to send us
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one.
A car meanwhile
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.
Small things that help
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
