Arranging the work for the xB
For battery service on the 2005 Scion xB, 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.
About your xB
If you have the service history of your xB, have it ready for the shop. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The engine is the 1.5L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 4-speed automatic.
How the request works
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 agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Your rental while you wait
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Good habits for your car
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Before the shop starts
Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for.
Want a price?
A short request starts it: the car, the problem, and when suits you.
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.
