What happens when a car has alot of miles on it?
FOr instance, if a car says 10 mile/ 100, 000 warranty, even with maintenance ,the car can't last forever, what happens when it has too many miles on it? Is it dead? DOesnt work as well? Or buy a new car?

Well, thats the point of having the car serviced when it is needed. Service, or maintenance, is the time to look at the condition of the car, whats working, and whats not. If something is not working, or wears out (clutch, brake pads, etc.) we tend to replace it with new ones. So if we keep on replacing parts that are broken with new ones, then, my guess is we SHOULD be able to keep the car running. Then maybe you will have a car with 2002 body structure, 2030 engine, 2035 transmission, etc. In reality, this is not something we want to do. Because a car is something that depreciates as time goes by (excluding classics, limited production cars, etc.) But the cost of the parts and labor doesn't depreciate like the car does. So it is possible for a repair to cost more than the car itself. Well, would you want to repair a car like that? |
