Battery boost: how we help
For battery service on the 1985 GMC Rally, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop; the work is done there, not by CarmaCars. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Your Rally and the shop
If you have the service history of your Rally, have it ready for the shop. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. It is powered by the 6.2L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive.
The steps
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Small things that help
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
What to ask
Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used.
Next step
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
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.
