Car diagnostics: how we help
Need a diagnostic check for the 1998 Dodge Intrepid? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
Details the shop needs
If you have the service history of your Intrepid, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Power: the 2.7L 6-cylinder; drive: front-wheel drive.
From request to repair
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. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Talking to the shop
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Good habits for your car
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
