Arranging the work for the Charger
For engine work on the 2016 Dodge Charger, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Before the shop sees your Charger
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The powertrain to know here is the 3.6L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
You approve the shop's quote before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
Stay on the road
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Car care, briefly
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Over to you
Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
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.
