Computerized cars result in unnecessary repairs

Cars & Transport

Unknowingly when the car is left on a parking lot for a few months, instead of mileage being recorded, the computer records the length of time, therefore the vehicle is not accumulating miles, just time and hours which resulted in the computer telling you that a inspection service was needed, also resulting in having to acquire a new battery for $200. Which could have been purchased by our mechanic for $110. The brake fluid had to be changed even if the vehicle only has 40,000km. The engine belts were replaced, it was recommended the brakes needed flushing. All for $1323.93. Now if my husband being a mechanic did the repairs for much less, the computer would not recognize the work done, which means that you must take your vehicle back to the dealer each time the computer informs you of a problem.
