Arranging the work for the G80
For battery service on the 2018 Genesis G80, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Before the shop sees your G80
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Power: the 3.8L 6-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
From request to repair
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date.
A car meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Questions to ask the shop
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Between shop visits
Look at the tire tread before long trips. 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.
Get an offer
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with 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.
