Battery boost for the 1997 Dodge Intrepid
Your 1997 Dodge Intrepid needs battery service? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Details the shop needs
If you have the service history of your Intrepid, have it ready for the shop. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Its powertrain is the 3.3L 6-cylinder with front-wheel drive.
What we arrange
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
A rental while you wait
The rental is priced like any other on our site. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Good habits for your car
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
Talking to the shop
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Want a price?
A request is free and gets a reply within one business day.
