A rental while yours is in the shop
CarmaCars does not do this work; you keep driving while the shop has your car. We deliver a rental to you, by the day, at our usual rates.

The Saab 9-3: Winter tires
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For a winter tire change on the Saab 9-3, we connect you with a trusted shop. Swapping to winter tires in fall and back in spring is the usual routine.
Before the shop sees your 9-3
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 9-3. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed.
What we arrange
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
What to ask
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Car care, briefly
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
Ask us
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
Request winter tires
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.
