Arranging the work for the Journey
For a diagnostic check on your 2016 Dodge Journey, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Your Journey and the shop
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.4L 4-cylinder. The 2.4L 4-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic.
What to send us
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. 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.
Stay on the road
We collect the rental when your car is back. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Small things that help
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
Before the shop starts
Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
One more step
Describe the problem, and we arrange 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.
