Towing: how we help
CarmaCars does not do this work itself. For a tow on the 1998 Dodge Intrepid, we arrange it with a trusted shop or connect you with one. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
About your Intrepid
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.7L 6-cylinder. A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The 2.7L 6-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
What we arrange
We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there.
Stay on the road
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
A short checklist
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there.
Small things that help
Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Ready when you are
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
Request towing
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.
