Passive Causative

Hi, I'm Chandra. I'd like to ask about passive causative. If we use "have, make, let, ask, want, get, etc" for active causative, what verbs do we use for the passive? Can we use all of them? Thank you.

Here are some examples of the active and passive:

John had the mechanic fix his car. John had his car fixed (by the mechanic).

Thank you for the explanation. So I conclude that we can use all of those words to make the passive form. But for "make" and "ask" are slight different.
