Should I Repair or Trade-in my Old Car?

Whether you’re searching for Buick repair support or vehicle trade-in options, Lester Glenn Buick GMC has you covered. We make it easy to protect and maintain your vehicle, or to swap it out for the next great model when the time comes. But when do you know to trade your car in or to repair it?

Repair vs. Trade
There are benefits to both repairing and trading in your old vehicle, and Lester Glenn Buick GMC is here to help you no matter what you decide. Here are a few things to consider when picking between repairing and trading-in.

What is the Value of the Car?
If the repair costs are going to be higher than the total value of the vehicle, it may be time to move on. The vehicle trade-in value can reduce the cost of your next vehicle, and you’ll see big savings on sales taxes, as well. Always consider the cost of the repairs versus the value of the trade-in.

What is the Condition of the Vehicle?
You also want to consider the future repair needs of the car. If short-term repair costs are beginning to add up, it may be worth it to purchase a more reliable vehicle, with savings from the trade-in.

What Are the Warranties?
Many repairs and replacements are covered under warranty, which can reduce or mitigate the costs. Look into warranty coverage, and compare the costs of repairs with warranties against the value of the trade-in.

Here at Lester Glenn Buick GMC, you’ll find high-quality repairs, parts, and services. We also offer personalized financing support, including easy vehicle trade-ins. And, of course, we carry a wide inventory of new and pre-owned vehicles. Compare repair and trade-in options at our dealership today!
