Depends what breaks. Most of the failures the HN crowd is going to encounter can be fixed with a $30 socket and wrench set, another $30 in hand tools and an internet connection.
The overwhelming majority of those are going to be worn out wear items that only require an ability to follow instructions to rectify. Most of the rest will be plumbing failures (if your definition of plumbing is inclusive enough to include plumbing for electrons) which will require pliers and other "grabby pinchy tools" in addition to your $30 socket set.

I heard one count that there were 21 moving parts. I imagine that they can only be replaced by a pro, but that they basically won't ever need to be. I guess the headlamps might need to be replaced some day... but if they're LEDs, they may well be permanent.
