Battery boost: how we help
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for battery service on the 2018 Subaru BRZ we arrange a trusted shop. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Your BRZ and the shop
If you have the service history of your BRZ, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.0L 4-cylinder. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder with rear-wheel drive and a 6-speed automatic.
What to send us
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A car meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
A short checklist
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used.
Car care, briefly
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
Still deciding?
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.
