Part 2/7:
Before diving into specifics, it’s crucial to understand the role of the mechanic in this decision-making process. Ethical mechanics should not outright tell you whether to fix or sell your car. Instead, their role is to provide a thorough diagnosis, explain the necessary repairs, and support you in making an informed decision. Owners should never feel helpless or overwhelmed when it comes to their car repairs; they must be empowered to make their own choices.
The importance of a transparent mechanic cannot be overstated. An effective mechanic will inform you of all the relevant issues while giving you a detailed scope of work and estimation of repairs.
