GearMind is an AI-powered automotive assistant. It's designed to help you understand vehicle problems, explore likely causes, and learn how your car works — it is not a mechanic, and it does not replace one.

AI-generated content: Diagnoses, fault-scan results, repair guides, and chat responses are generated automatically by AI. They are not reviewed or verified by a qualified technician before being shown to you. Treat them as a starting point for understanding your issue, not a confirmed diagnosis or repair instruction.

How GearMind handles risk: Not all car issues carry the same risk, so GearMind's guidance adjusts accordingly:

Low-risk topics (fluids, bulbs, basic maintenance, warning light meanings) — GearMind gives full step-by-step guidance.
Medium-risk topics (battery, sensors, electrical, basic components) — GearMind gives guidance and checks, but flags when a mechanic should confirm.
High-risk topics (brakes, steering, airbags, fuel systems, EV high-voltage systems, internal engine work) — GearMind explains what's likely happening but will not give step-by-step repair instructions. These should always be inspected by a qualified professional.

When to stop and see a professional: If a fault involves your brakes, steering, airbags, fuel system, high-voltage EV components, or anything you're not confident diagnosing safely — stop, and book a qualified mechanic. No app, including GearMind, should be the final word on anything safety-critical.

Limitation of liability: GearMind is provided for informational and educational purposes. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for damage, injury, death, vehicle loss, recovery costs, failed repairs, incorrect parts, or other losses arising from actions taken based on AI-generated content, uploaded photos, recommended videos, estimates, or guides without independent professional verification, particularly for safety-critical repairs.
