Towing: how we help
The 2012 Volvo XC70 and a tow: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. Once you are safe, send a request with where the car is and where it should go.
Your XC70 and the shop
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. If you have the service history of your XC70, have it ready for the shop. Power comes from the 3.2L 6-cylinder, driving through a 6-speed automatic.
What CarmaCars does here
We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. 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.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Good habits for your car
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Getting a clear quote
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
