How to Make Your Car Last Forever: Avoid Expensive Repairs, Improve Fuel Economy, Understand Your Warranty, Save Money

When faced with a major repair on your old vehicle, it’s best to have an evaluation of the vehicle to see if you
have a good foundation from which to work. A stem-to-stern inspection much like a pre-purchase inspection
will tell you if the vehicle is worth repairing. A close scrutiny of the engine, transmission, brakes, steering,
suspension, body, and frame by a professional will give you an idea of the overall condition of the vehicle.
Then you can make an informed decision on whether to keep it or trade it in. Shutterstock
