Arranging the work for the Aries
Searching for towing for the 1986 Dodge Aries? CarmaCars does not do this work itself; we arrange it with a trusted shop. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.
Before the shop sees your Aries
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Aries. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. It runs the 2.2L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.
What CarmaCars does here
Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. You agree everything with the shop before work begins. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
Stay on the road
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Questions to ask the shop
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used.
Between shop visits
Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
One more step
