The 2012 Dodge Durango: Battery boost
For battery service on the 2012 Dodge Durango, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Your Durango and the shop
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 3.6L 6-cylinder. The 3.6L 6-cylinder, paired with a 5-speed automatic, drives it.
What CarmaCars does here
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
Your rental while you wait
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Delivery starts at $0 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Talking to the shop
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Good habits for your car
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell.
Next step
A request is free and gets a reply within one business day.
