Battery boost: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For battery service on the 1995 Dodge Stratus, we connect you with a trusted shop. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Before the shop sees your Stratus
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.4L 4-cylinder. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. It uses the 2.4L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive.
The steps
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
A car meanwhile
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Small things that help
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
Want a price?
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
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.
