Arranging the work for the Ram
Your 2001 Dodge Ram needs a winter tire change? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. Tires are swapped, balanced and checked for wear, and the shop sets its own price and time.
About your Ram
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Ram. If you have the service history of your Ram, have it ready for the shop.
From request to repair
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You approve the shop's quote before any work. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
Your rental while you wait
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Good habits for your car
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
What to ask
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Want a price?
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
