The 1992 Dodge Shadow: Battery boost
Battery boost for your 1992 Dodge Shadow: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your Shadow and the shop
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Its 2.2L 4-cylinder drives through a 5-speed manual.
From request to repair
You approve the shop's quote before any work. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Keep moving meanwhile
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
What to ask
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Between shop visits
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Questions first?
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
Request battery boost
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
