Engine repair: how we help
Your 2012 Dodge Durango needs engine work? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your Durango and the shop
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Durango. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Power: the 3.6L 6-cylinder; drive: rear-wheel drive.
What we arrange
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
A car meanwhile
Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Car care, briefly
Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
A short checklist
Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Want a price?
Ask in your request, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
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.
