Wheel alignment: how we help
Wheel alignment for the 1989 GMC Sierra: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. A crooked steering wheel on a straight road is a common sign the alignment is off.
Details the shop needs
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The powertrain to know here is the 6.2L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive.
Who does what
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A car meanwhile
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Talking to the shop
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
Good habits for your car
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Questions first?
