Investors & landlords

Yes. The repairs and the rental car expenses are deductible business vehicle use expenses.

Here is how you will enter these Business vehicle expenses into TurboTax Home & Business:

  •  Business< Business Income & Expenses< "Jump to a Full List" < Business Income & Expenses. Click on Update or Start across from Business Income & Expenses, as pictured in the first screenshot I have attached. 
  •  You will be brought to your Business' Income & Expenses summary page, as shown in the second screenshot I have attached. Scroll down to Business Expenses, and click on Update across from Business Vehicle Expense.
  • You will be able to click on Edit across from the vehicle in question, and proceed through all the questions again. You will be able to change any answer you wish, including the choice of standard or actual expense mileage deduction. 
  • When you choose to enter Actual Vehicle Expenses instead of the Standard Mileage Deduction method, you will be guided through entering all of your expenses in the following pages. Enter repair costs on the page pictured in the 3rd screenshot I have attached below.
  • Enter your rental car costs a few pages later, under Business Local Transportation on the page for Other Vehicle Expensesas pictured in my last screenshot attached below.
