Engine repair for the 1997 Dodge B3500 Van
Engine repair for your 1997 Dodge B3500 Van: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Before the shop sees your B3500 Van
Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Power comes from the 5.2L 8-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic.
How the arrangement works
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
Keep moving meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. The rental is priced like any other on our site. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Good habits for your car
Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept.
Ready when you are
Need a rental too? Add it to the same request.
Request engine repair
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.
