The 1995 Dodge Stratus: Engine repair
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for engine work on the 1995 Dodge Stratus we arrange a trusted shop. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Details the shop needs
If you have the service history of your Stratus, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.4L 4-cylinder. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The 2.4L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
What CarmaCars does here
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. You approve the shop's quote before any work. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
A car while yours is in the shop
The rental is priced like any other on our site. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
Between shop visits
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up.
