Battery boost for the 1987 Subaru GL
Your 1987 Subaru GL needs battery service? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Before the shop sees your GL
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop.
What to send us
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Stay on the road
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Between shop visits
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Talking to the shop
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history.
One more step
Ask us, and we tell you whether we can arrange it.
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.
