Your car, your notes
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts.
The steps
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. 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. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Questions to ask the shop
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Between shop visits
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
