Arranging the work for the Aries
Car diagnostics for the 1982 Dodge Aries: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Your Aries and the shop
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them.
Our part and the shop's part
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
Keep moving meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Between shop visits
Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
Talking to the shop
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Ready to ask?
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
Request car diagnostics
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.
