Wheel alignment for the 1985 Dodge Caravan
CarmaCars does not do mechanical work. For a wheel alignment on the 1985 Dodge Caravan, we connect you with a trusted shop. A crooked steering wheel on a straight road is a common sign the alignment is off.
About your Caravan
The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed.
How the request works
We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
Your rental while you wait
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Small things that help
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance. Look at the tire tread before long trips.
A short checklist
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
One more step
Send a request: the car, the problem and when suits you.
Request wheel alignment
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.
