Arranging the work for the Lancer
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For a wheel alignment on the 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
Your car, your notes
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The powertrain here is the 1.6L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
How the request works
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Driving while yours is at the shop
We collect the rental when your car is back. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Between shop visits
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
A short checklist
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Get an offer
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
