Arranging the work for the Mini Ram
Need engine work for your 1984 Dodge Mini Ram? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
About your Mini Ram
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Mini Ram. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request.
The steps
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A rental while you wait
A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Car care, briefly
Look at the tire tread before long trips. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it.
Want a price?
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
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.
