As our vehicles get older, they start to break down, even if they’re made with high-quality Nissan parts. If you’ve been spending more time at our service center for Nissan repair, you may be wondering when it’s time to just replace your car, truck, or SUV with a newer model, and when it’s better to go with the repair.

Repairing vs. Replacing

Here are a few things to consider as you decide whether to repair or replace your Nissan car, truck, or SUV.

  • Age: This may seem obvious, but it’s important. Not only do older cars require more maintenance and repairs, but they’re often lacking more modern technology and safety features, so if your car has a lot of years on it, maybe it’s time to get a new one.
  • Vehicle Value: Age isn’t the only factor though – vehicle value can be influenced by mileage, maintenance history, condition, and the market. Take a look at what your model is worth now. If it’s valued unusually high, you might want to take advantage of that and replace it now.
  • Repair Costs: Once you know your model’s value, another thing to do is look at the cost of the repair(s) you’re considering. There are plenty of low-cost repairs that can give you a lot longer with your vehicle, but expensive repairs — especially on a lower-value model — often aren’t worth it.
