Arranging the work for the Highlander
For battery service on the 2017 Toyota Highlander, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Your car, your notes
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid does the work, through an automatic (CVT).
From request to repair
We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. 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.
A car meanwhile
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Small things that help
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
Questions to ask the shop
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
