Searching for battery boost for the 1985 Chrysler Laser? CarmaCars does not do this work itself; we arrange it with a trusted shop. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Details the shop needs
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. If you have the service history of your Laser, have it ready for the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The 2.2L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
How we help
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. 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.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Good habits for your car
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.
