The Chrysler auto repair shop here at Sansone Auto is dedicated to getting you and your vehicle back out on the road in safety and comfort. We’re also sharing all you need to know about purchasing your next vehicle. Here are some questions you’ll want to ask when deciding whether to repair or replace your car.
Is it Totaled?
The term “totaled” simply means that the cost of repairs is higher than the value of the vehicle. This is one of the first questions you’ll want to ask because it will allow you to set your budget and determine if the time has come for a new ride. If your vehicle is totaled, it usually makes more financial sense to move on to the next model.
Is it Covered?
You also want to account for any active warranty coverage on your vehicle. With comprehensive warranty coverage, you may be able to get the repairs and replacements your vehicle needs at a very low cost, if there is any cost at all. Warranty coverage is important for determining between repairs and replacements because it can affect your budget, and may help you keep the car you love in the family for longer.
Does it Need Repairs?
In addition to the current repair costs your vehicle may have, you should also account for future costs. Look at the condition of certain essential parts and systems and try to get a sense of how many repairs or replacements your car might need in the future. If it looks like you have high replacement costs coming, it may be time for a new Chrysler car.
