I mean, I'm pretty sure cars' lifespans have generally increased over the years, despite not being able to easily tweak valves or what have you. So many older cars don't have a 6th digit on the odometer because it was so common for a car to die after about 100,000 miles anyway. Now you might hit some issues, but that kind of mileage is basically your car's equivalent of a person's 40th birthday.
If I have to take the car to the dealership and only the dealership can fix my problem its not a car I want I'm gonna be real with you.
The only item in my Honda (that I am aware of) that requires dealership attention is calibrating the "Honda Sense" sensors if they get replaced. And that is because the equipment required is so expensive, only the dealership carries it.
Plus, the only time I needed that was when I was hit by someone and the sensor was replaced because the panels were replaced.
I can still do all the minor maintenance myself, it is just a LOT more convenient for me to let my mechanic do it.
Love my Honda. (Please bring back the Fit!)
Yes, technology does march forward. That doesn't change the fact that many cars you're not even allowed to touch yourself, even the few things you can fix that don't require expensive speciality tools.
I've touched myself in every car I've ever been in, but I'm something of a handyman.
That Uber driver was not amused
That would be a problem... If it were a thing. At least here in the US, it's not. Can you tell me where you're not allowed to fix your own car, assuming no specialty tools are needed?
