What Mechronic is

Mechronic provides general information about car problems, trouble codes, and typical repair costs, through an AI chat and written guides. It is not a licensed repair facility, does not inspect your vehicle, and its answers are not a substitute for a mechanic who can see and test your car.

Safety

If a warning light is flashing, you smell fuel, the brakes feel wrong, or the car is overheating, stop driving and get help. Don't rely on any online answer, including ours, for a decision where your safety is at risk.

Prices

Repair costs are typical ranges for US independent shops and are estimates. Your price depends on the vehicle, the region, and the shop.

Shop quotes

When you request a quote, we pass your request to a participating shop. The shop is responsible for its quote and its work. We are not a party to any agreement between you and a shop.

Liability

[To be completed with legal review.]
