How often do you take your car to the mechanic for repairs?

The average driver spends nearly $1,500 per year on car maintenance and repairs (given they drive an average of 15,000 miles a year), and those costs add up fast. But, the type of car you drive — and how you drive it — could have a big impact on your total costs.
