That's true to a bigger extent with ICE's than with Electric cars.
There is very little you can repair in an electric car, Its basically a battery, motor, electronics and software, and that's a plus, not a negative.
Why do you want repair something that shouldn't even exist at the first place?
- jakevn 8y agoMany of the issues I've had with German vehicles were not related to the ICE. These are the issues I faced in 100k miles of German car ownership: Window motor, Parasitic draw, Blower motor, Headlight ballast, Wheel bearing, Strut mount bushings, Sunroof drain channel
- femidav 8y agoMy BMW ran for 107k miles, only repair until now - headlight lamps for $20, self-replaced. BMWs built after 2005 are extremely reliable.
- StudentStuff 8y agoThere is not as much to have fail in an electric car, but that shouldn't mean I lose the right to repair a vehicle I own. Rebuilding batteries isn't new to me, nor is compiling software. Why should Tesla be allowed to brick every electric car that gets in a fender bender, or refuse to sell parts for cars once the vehicle is out of warranty? A lack of enforcement of the right to repair has driven repair costs on Tesla's vehicles sky high, causing their vehicles to have notably more expensive insurance premiums.
