Arranging the work for the Viper
The 1996 Dodge Viper and battery service: 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 car, your notes
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Its 8.0L 10-cylinder drives through a 6-speed manual.
What CarmaCars does here
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date.
A rental while you wait
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. The rental is priced like any other on our site. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
What to ask
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. 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.
Between shop visits
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter.
Your move
Ask us, and we tell you whether we can arrange it.

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.
