Do you call a plumber every time your sink or toilet backs up?
Maintenance is one thing, major repairs are another.
I wouldn’t call a plumber first thing to unclog a toilet, and I wouldn’t go to a mechanic just for them to dump oil out and measure the right amount of oil back in.
Now if the engine is making weird noises, or it’s not shifting right or braking correctly, then yeah, go to a mechanic. Mechanics are way more familiar with internal workings and can diagnose strange issues.








I’ve had the opposite experience. Mint has just worked on literally every piece of hardware I’ve ever owned.
