Arranging the work for the 4Runner
Your 1989 Toyota 4Runner needs a wheel alignment? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
About your 4Runner
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. All-wheel drive cars are fussy about matching tires; replace them as a set when the shop advises it. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Under the hood: the 2.4L 4-cylinder and all-wheel drive.
What to send us
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
Talking to the shop
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Between shop visits
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
Want a price?
Ask, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
