Arranging the work for the Stratus
For battery service on your 2002 Dodge Stratus, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Your Stratus and the shop
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. It is powered by the 2.4L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.
From request to repair
Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
Keep moving meanwhile
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Good habits for your car
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Questions first?
A request is free and gets a reply within one business day.
