Arranging the work for the Diplomat
For engine work on the Dodge Diplomat, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
About your Diplomat
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car.
What CarmaCars does here
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. 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.
A car while yours is in the shop
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Questions to ask the shop
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Between shop visits
Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Check that all lights work every few weeks.
