The 2000 Dodge Stratus: Mechanic
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for mechanical repairs or maintenance on the 2000 Dodge Stratus we arrange a trusted shop. Tell us what the car is doing, and we find a shop suited to the job.
Your car, your notes
Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. The 2.0L 4-cylinder, paired with a 4-speed automatic, drives it.
The steps
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. You agree the price with the shop before any work starts.
A car meanwhile
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
What to ask
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. Ask for the work to be listed line by line on the invoice.
Car care, briefly
Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
When you know your dates
Need the work and a rental? One request covers both.
Request mechanic
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.
Rent a car while yours is in in Toronto
We have no car while yours is in on the site right now. Request one and we look for it for your dates, or take a similar car that is available now.
