You don't need manufacturer support to repair most cars. Several car makers have left the industry, and their cars are still drivable and repairable. You can generally buy and repair cars with flood or wrecked title and repair them if you've got the time and patience; manufacturers will probably think you're crazy, but you can get service parts.
