Engine repair: how we help
The 1987 Dodge 600 and engine work: CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop, and never does the work itself. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Your car, your notes
If you have the service history of your 600, have it ready for the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The engine is the 2.2L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and a 3-speed automatic.
What CarmaCars does here
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. You approve the shop's quote before any work. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car.
A car while yours is in the shop
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
What to ask
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Between shop visits
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive.
Still deciding?
A request is free and gets a reply within one business day.
