Battery boost: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For battery service on the 1981 Dodge Aries, we connect you with a trusted shop. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your Aries and the shop
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop.
What to send us
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Talking to the shop
Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Small things that help
Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Want a price?
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
