Battery boost: how we help
Your 2016 smart fortwo needs battery service? We arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. A slow crank on a cold morning is often the first sign of a tired battery.
Before the shop sees your fortwo
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. It runs the 0.9L 3-cylinder turbo, with rear-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Rent by the day or the week, and stop when your car is back. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
A short checklist
Ask whether the estimate includes tax and shop supplies. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Between shop visits
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
