Arranging the work for the Compass
Your 2012 Jeep Compass 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.
Your car, your notes
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Its powertrain is the 2.0L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive.
How the arrangement works
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
The rental is priced like any other on our site. Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Before the shop starts
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Between shop visits
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
Next step
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
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.
