Arranging the work for the Avenger
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For a safety certificate on the 1997 Dodge Avenger, we connect you with a trusted shop. Only a licensed inspection station can issue a Safety Standards Certificate in Ontario.
Your Avenger and the shop
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.0L 4-cylinder. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed manual.
Our part and the shop's part
The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
A car meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it afterwards. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Before the shop starts
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.
Between shop visits
Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Listen for new noises and mention them to the shop with as much detail as you can.
Over to you
Start with a short request; a person replies within one business day.
