Battery boost for the 1987 Dodge Colt
Your 1987 Dodge Colt needs battery service? We arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your Colt and the shop
If you have the service history of your Colt, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Colt. The 1.5L 4-cylinder, paired with a 4-speed manual, drives it.
How we help
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A car while yours is in the shop
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
A short checklist
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Between shop visits
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Next step
