Arranging the work for the Ram 50 Pickup
Car diagnostics for your 1985 Dodge Ram 50 Pickup: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. A warning light is the car asking for a diagnostic scan; the code tells the shop where to look.
About your Ram 50 Pickup
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Ram 50 Pickup. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
What to send us
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. 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 can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop.
Driving while yours is at the shop
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Car care, briefly
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
A short checklist
Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
