Car maintenance management can be difficult due the different components that are commonly repaired and replaced. Even if an owner has vast knowledge of their vehicle’s maintenance routine, it is common to forget when a component was replaced. Consumer Reports advises that the best way to save money at the mechanic is to do proper research on specific components, and fix/replace components at the right time. iMechanic is a multi-platform web application that allows car owners to take maintenance into their own hands by keeping detailed work logs and allowing owners to efficiently organize their car’s data. The user can input simple vehicle information to create their dashboard, where they can get familiar with common maintenance routines, costs, and local mechanics. When a car owner uses a proper organization management tool, they can increase the well-being of their vehicle, while also saving money from avoiding unnecessary repairs.
