Battery boost: how we help
For battery service on your 2018 Ford C-MAX, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Details the shop needs
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the C-MAX. The 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
The steps
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
Stay on the road
We collect the rental when your car is back. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Small things that help
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
One more step
Describe the problem, and we arrange 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.
