The 1986 Dodge Aries: Car diagnostics
For a diagnostic check on the 1986 Dodge Aries, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Before the shop sees your Aries
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. 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. The engine is the 2.2L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
How the arrangement works
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
A rental while you wait
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Car care, briefly
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate.
Ask us
Tell us what is wrong with the car, and we arrange the rest with a trusted shop.
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.
