The 2012 smart fortwo: Battery boost
The 2012 smart fortwo and battery service: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Your fortwo and the shop
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Its 1.0L 3-cylinder drives through a 5-speed automatic.
Our part and the shop's part
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
A car meanwhile
Rent for as long as the job takes, by the day or the week. Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Getting a clear quote
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.
Good habits for your car
Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Make a request
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.
