Arranging the work for the Maxima
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For a wheel alignment on the 2002 Nissan Maxima, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
About your Maxima
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. It uses the 3.5L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive.
Who does what
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Stay on the road
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
A short checklist
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Car care, briefly
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Get an offer
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
Request wheel alignment
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
