Arranging the work for the Journey
Need a wheel alignment for your 2009 Dodge Journey? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
Your Journey and the shop
Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Journey. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The 2.4L 4-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic.
How we help
We do not set the shop's price or promise a date. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
We deliver the rental to you and collect it when your car is ready. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Car care, briefly
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. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up.
Your move
Send the car's details and the job, and we take the next step.
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.
