Battery boost: how we help
Your 2004 Ford Taurus needs battery service? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
About your Taurus
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. If you have the service history of your Taurus, have it ready for the shop. The engine is the 3.0L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic.
Who does what
Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Car care, briefly
Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.
Talking to the shop
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Ready when you are
Ask us, and we tell you whether we can arrange it.
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.
