Arranging the work for the C-MAX
Wheel alignment for the 2014 Ford C-MAX: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. An alignment keeps the car driving straight and the tires wearing evenly.
Your C-MAX and the shop
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the C-MAX. The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid, with front-wheel drive.
The steps
Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
Driving while yours is at the shop
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. We collect the rental when your car is back. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Small things that help
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
What to ask
Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Want a price?
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
Request wheel alignment
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.
