Arranging the work for the Stratus
For an emissions test on the 2003 Dodge Stratus, a trusted shop does the work and CarmaCars arranges it, with a rental if you need one. Rules on emissions testing differ by province and state.
Your Stratus and the shop
If you have the service history of your Stratus, have it ready for the shop. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Stratus. Its powertrain is the 2.4L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive.
What we arrange
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven.
Your rental while you wait
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Delivery starts at $0 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
Between shop visits
Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
A short checklist
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Ask us
Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
Request emissions test
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.
