Common Auto Repairs Database-CARDb
Supplement to the Vehicle Reliability Survey (does not replace it)
About TrueDelta's CARDb
Some people have told TrueDelta that what they'd really like to know, more than average repair rates, is which repairs are especially common with a given car. This way, when shopping for a used car they would could:
- Closely inspect typical problem areas
- Check if likely repairs have already been performed
In response, TrueDelta is launching the Common Auto Repair Database - the CARDb. Not only will this database provide helpful information about common repairs all in one spot, but it will include links to forum discussions where you can learn additional details.
Currently the member contributing an entry is not identified. But this is recorded, and those who want credit for their contributions will receive it. There just needs to be a \"screen name\" system in place first.
Note: Initially there won't be many entries. But we'll get there! If you're aware of common repairs with your car, please log in and enter them."); //
There are two ways members can contribute to this database: by entering common repairs and (soon) by indicating whether your own car has had the problem. //if(!$session_code) printf ("(Membership is free for participants.)
