Battery boost: how we help
Your 1986 Ford LTD needs battery service? 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.
Before the shop sees your LTD
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The 2.3L 4-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
Who does what
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. 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.
A car meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is back. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Good habits for your car
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
A short checklist
Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history.
