Arranging the work for the Avenger
Need a diagnostic check for your 1997 Dodge Avenger? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Your Avenger and the shop
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. If you have the service history of your Avenger, have it ready for the shop. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual.
Our part and the shop's part
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
Keep moving meanwhile
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. The rental is priced like any other on our site. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Talking to the shop
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Small things that help
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
Next step
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
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.
