Arranging the work for the Legacy
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For battery service on the 2016 Subaru Legacy, we connect you with a trusted shop. Lights left on overnight are the classic reason for a flat battery.
Your car, your notes
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them.
What CarmaCars does here
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
A car while yours is in the shop
We collect the rental when your car is back. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Talking to the shop
Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Small things that help
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
When you know your dates
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
