Arranging the work for the Probe
For a wheel alignment on the 1996 Ford Probe, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. An alignment keeps the car driving straight and the tires wearing evenly.
Your car, your notes
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Probe. Its powertrain is the 2.0L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive.
What we arrange
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. 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.
Stay on the road
The rental is priced like any other on our site. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. 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.
Good habits for your car
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell.
