For mechanical parts cars are very good. For electronics not so much. It seems like you could repair a chip with an electron microscope and other similar tools - but I've never heard of anyone trying. I have heard of taking the case off to look at the inside of chips (for processes larger than current 3nm); but not repairing issues and putting it back into service.
Electronic parts tend to go out of production. If nobody makes the failed chip anymore what can you do to repair it? If you can get the correct chip we can put the software back on it (well good luck getting that, but it is possible), but all too often parts are not available at any price.
