Arranging the work for the Continental
For a wheel alignment on the 1983 Lincoln Continental, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop; the work is done there, not by CarmaCars. A crooked steering wheel on a straight road is a common sign the alignment is off.
Your Continental and the shop
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. If you have the service history of your Continental, have it ready for the shop. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them.
How the arrangement works
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
A car meanwhile
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Small things that help
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
A short checklist
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
