Engine repair: how we help
Your 1988 Dodge Lancer needs engine work? We arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Before the shop sees your Lancer
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Lancer. Under the hood: the 2.2L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive.
How the arrangement works
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Stay on the road
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. The rental is priced like any other on our site. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Between shop visits
Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Getting a clear quote
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Get an offer
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
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.
