Just bought a Vitamix after my ninja food processor bowl essentially fell apart. The 900 Canadian dollars hurt but I know with a 10 year warranty I feel confident in it lasting.
Big change in my mindset from 10 years ago. Give me the quality shit every time now.
This is true however for op it's not something you can or need to watch or keep track of. At least for my car if it detects something wrong with the battery cooling/heating system it will tell you. Otherwise you just ignore it.
