Fix or Replace Your Auto

Your mechanic just called with a repair estimate. Now what? Fix or Replace Auto gives you a clear, honest answer — based on your vehicle's actual numbers, not a rule of thumb. We never just compare your repair cost to your car's value. That shortcut gets it wrong more often than you'd think: a $4,000 repair on a car worth $6,000 can still be the right call once you factor in what replacing it would really cost. HOW IT WORKS Tell us about your vehicle and the repair it needs — type it in or just describe it out loud. We'll walk you through a few quick questions about mileage, repair history, and what a replacement would actually cost you: purchase price, tax, fees, financing, and trade-in value. Then we run the numbers and give you a clear recommendation: • FIX IT — the repair is the smart move • GET ANOTHER QUOTE — worth a second opinion before deciding • REPLACE IT — the math favors moving on • TOO CLOSE TO CALL — an honest call when it's genuinely a toss-up WHAT YOU GET - A side-by-side comparison of your repair cost versus the real, all-in cost of replacing your vehicle - A 24-month cost outlook so you can see past the sticker price - Your personal "repair threshold" — the point where fixing stops making sense - A What-If tool to instantly see how the answer changes if your numbers do - Plain-language reasoning behind every recommendation, not just a number - Optional AI-powered symptom check to help you understand what a repair might involve before you even talk to a shop BUILT ON YOUR VEHICLE'S HISTORY Your vehicles and past decisions are saved securely to your account, so the more we know about a car's repair history, the sharper future recommendations get. Revisit any past decision anytime. HONEST PRICING Your first decision is completely free.
