The 1981 Dodge Ram Van: Car diagnostics
The 1981 Dodge Ram Van and a diagnostic check: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. A steady check engine light needs a check soon; a flashing one means pull over safely and get help.
Details the shop needs
If you have the service history of your Ram Van, have it ready for the shop. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare.
The steps
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
Driving while yours is at the shop
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Car care, briefly
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months.
Talking to the shop
If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Over to you
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.
