A rental while yours is in the shop
CarmaCars does not do this work; you keep driving while the shop has your car. We deliver a rental to you, by the day, at our usual rates.

Arranging the work for the 850
Battery boost for your Volvo 850: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Details the shop needs
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them.
What to send us
We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
Stay on the road
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Small things that help
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Questions to ask the shop
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
One more step
Send a request: the car, the problem and when suits you.
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.
