Wheel alignment: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for a wheel alignment on the 1993 Ford Escort we arrange a trusted shop. A crooked steering wheel on a straight road is a common sign the alignment is off.
Your car, your notes
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 1.9L 4-cylinder. Under the hood: the 1.9L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive.
Who does what
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Your rental while you wait
The rental is priced like any other on our site. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Between shop visits
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
What to ask
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
