Arranging the work for the Van
Wheel alignment for your 1988 Nissan Van: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. An alignment keeps the car driving straight and the tires wearing evenly.
Your Van and the shop
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Van. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.4L 4-cylinder. Power: the 2.4L 4-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
How the arrangement works
You approve the shop's quote before any work. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
Your rental while you wait
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Questions to ask the shop
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Good habits for your car
Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
Over to you
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
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.
