Arranging the work for the Charger
Need a wheel alignment for the 1986 Dodge Charger? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. An alignment keeps the car driving straight and the tires wearing evenly.
Your Charger and the shop
Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 1.6L 4-cylinder. Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. It uses the 1.6L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive.
How we help
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. You approve the shop's quote before any work. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
Driving while yours is at the shop
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you. Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree.
Car care, briefly
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair.
One more step
Send a request with the car and what it needs, and a person replies within one business day.
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.
