I was so pleased with the work Sean did on my Toyota Camry. He was knowledgeable about his craft and his pricing was reasonable. He was concerned about the overall mechanics of my car. I was surprised he had oil so I was able to top off my oil. Sean was professional, reliable and did not try to up sell. Will definitely use again and again.

After discovering that my car would not accelerate beyond a certain mileage, I researched a mobile mechanic. DMV mobile mechanic was one of the first repair services to pop up. I did my research and read all the reviews to ensure this was the service I wanted contact. I contacted Shawn around 9am, he answered on the second ring and was very polite. Shawn asked me what was going on with my vehicle, as I explained he gave me some feedback of what could be going wrong. Shawn provided pricing information up front and was very knowledgeable, honest, and reliable. Shawn showed up around 11am and got straight to work, while working Shawn explained EVERYTHING that was wrong in detail and what he needed to do to fix the problem. Shawn didn't try to "get over", like most mechanics and overcharge. His pricing was fair and honest. Shawn is a down to earth guy that truly just wants to help in any way he can. I would absolutely recommend his services to anyone looking for an honest, knowledgeable, and reliable mobile mechanic. I will be calling Shawn again very soon, 10 out of 10! Thanks again Shawn!

Shawn came out to me within two hours of me contacting him and replaced my low beams in a timely manner. He was kind and trustworthy and I’ll definitely be a repeat customer!

EDIT: This man almost destroyed my car. He over torqued my spark plugs, when the next mechanic came to finish his work, they touched the coil pack and it just fell out. Nor did he clean the oil off the bottom of the spark plugs. BEWARE.. Shawn has worked on my vehicle before to fix breaks, which needless to say was painless. I notice SMALL jobs for him are better. However, ON THIS OCCASION, I am highly disappointed with his service and lack of professionalism. I called Shawn on a Friday night stating how my car went in limp mode, and ask if he would be able to get it running by Monday, as I still had to work. He agreed. After diagnosing the vehicle the next day, he stated the car needed a valve cover gasket, spark plugs and an oil change among other things but however the spark plugs and oil change would fix the problem for now until we can get the rest of the work done. Paid for the parts & service. He also left my parking break on before telling me to pull off when he was done and I couldn’t reverse. No big deal. Needless to say after he left the car was running rougher than before so I called him back to let him know something was off. He returned to tell me that he actually DID need to fix the valve cover gasket because oil was getting on the new plugs. Cool. Asked could he do it NOW twice. Told me ABSOLUTELY, he’d go get parts and fix a headlight and would be back in 45 min. No show. Next morning I had to text HIM to see when he would return. He states after he puts an alternator in one of his own vehicles. Cool. This was at 7 am. 6 pm contacted him again with ETA, responds, “ Im not on the way, I ain’t got no parts or nothing” well that’s obvious. When CAN YOU COME? When I say it was the most unprofessional back and fourth for HOURS with him saying he was coming and not showing. No worries, making a long story short, I asked for a receipt for the parts, he decides he won’t give me a receipt for parts I PAID FOR, after telling me they were under warranty. Wouldn’t even tell my fiancé the store they came from incase the next mechanic needed new plugs with the valve cover replacement that he didn’t complete. When I tell you I was HIGHLY disappointed and shocked by his lack of professionalism and unreliability. I will never EVER refer anyone to this man again. He picks and chooses when he wants to work and that’s not right. You don’t start jobs you can’t finish and you respect people’s time. He also is not loyal to his returning customers.

Shawn is a lifesaver!!! I was traveling from ATL to Philly and had to stop in Richmond because my check engine light came on and my car started shaking. I stopped at a local Auto Zone and was told it was a spark plug and was sold a part (which wasn’t even the exact part I needed). It was a Sunday so I was told by the Auto Zone employee that most mechanics were closed. I hopped on Google and called every local mobile mechanic I could find. Not only did Shawn pick up and say he’d look at my car and replace the spark plug, he arrived in record time. After his own assessment, he explained exactly what was wrong, what parts I needed and why. He also quoted me a competitive, super reasonable price and checked my oil because he said due to my car’s high mileage, make and model, he was sure I’d need more oil, and he was right! He got me back on the road in an hour! He was super fast, friendly and professional. I highly recommend and if I’m ever in the area and need work done on my car, I will definitely be calling Shawn again!

Called in for a last minute break pad issue, got a diagnosis over the phone which ended up being very accurate. As well as a good quote on the parts and labor cost. Got serviced within a reasonably amount of time and had no complaints! Sean helped me out and would recommend him for any house calls.

Shawn has been my go-to mechanic for years. He always shows up with a great attitude and is ready to get the job done. One time, he even fixed my car on the side of the highway, making sure I could get home safely. Shawn is not only a great guy but also extremely knowledgeable about cars. Whether it’s suspension, diagnostics, or anything under the hood, he can handle it. I highly recommend him for any mechanic work in Richmond, VA, and the surrounding areas.

Shawn arrived within an hour to replace my dead battery. Explained the whole process as well as other things. Knowledgeable, kind, professional, great pricing. Very grateful for the mobile service to avoid tow fees. Would call again!

I tried to work with this guy but it's not working. I paid $300 for replacement of the two inner tire rods and when he finished the right side was making a grinding noise, I called him back and he kept saying it's ok just need a wheel alignment. He didn't put the Carter pins in, ripped one of the inner tire rod boots. I took it to the shop for the wheel alignment and the tire rod fell off. I had to pay the shop $190 extra for them to fix both tire rods. He was supposed to put the boot back on but I haven't heard from him. The work he did on my car could have been very dangerous to me driving the car. I don't recommend this guy to anyone. He never tried to make it right but gladly took my 300 dollars. This guy is a crook. Don't trust or mess with this company.

There is something to be said about honesty, integrity, friendliness, and knowledge of one's profession, especially in the auto mechanics field. My wife and I called DMV Mobile Mechanics Repair and met Shawn. This young man was able to tell us our car problem on the spot! He got the job done in no time while sharing friendly conversation with us. If you're ever unfortunate enough to have problems with you car I STRONGLY suggest using this particular service.

I don’t usually leave reviews. But, here we are. So I was in a jam, my wheel was screeching, and my brake pressure was gone on the highways. It was a nightmare. And I called this gentleman to have him work on my car. When I say it was easy and a pleasure, I mean it. He was prompt, explained the work, didn’t try to upsell me on ANYTHING, in fact, did the opposite. He could have made more money, but instead decided to be honest and make a customer come back. And that I will. I highly recommend using his services when need be. These dealerships and mechanics will charge you an arm and leg, upsell you on things you simply don’t need. None of that happened. I will continue coming back. When he was done he explained everything, took the car for a ride to make sure it was safe. He’s a professional and a hell of a mechanic in my opinion. Give him a shout and he’ll take care of you. Shawn is a good human. And does good work.

Highly recommending this incredibly talented young man for auto repairs. He was prompt, knowledgeable, professional & very transparent throughout my entire service. Most importantly he absolutely did not try to sell me on things I didn't need. Shawn went above & beyond to find ways to save me money. He'll find the most cost efficient & reliable way to get you safely back on the road. He drove my vehicle to ensure the quality & stayed to let me test drive it as well. With my approval he tightened up items he found loose. Ladies or anyone really not familiar with the workings of cars & as a mom I can say most assuredly, you're in excellent hands with DMV MOBILE REPAIRS!! I'd give him more stars I could!!🤗

I do not recommend going to him to fix anything on your vehicle. also if you prefer not to have anything have way done go to someone else… also he tried to charge me a $40 diagnostic fee for telling me about a different issue ( that I didn’t ask him to do ) when I specifically called him for a battery change. I spoke up for myself immediately & he proceeded to do what I called him for. Definitely recommend going elsewhere if you want 100% quality & don’t want anything halfway done. I also had to request a refund because he broke my battery terminal, left the debris on the battery & did t say anything about it until I called him. I requested half back which was $25 out of what I paid him which was $50. I requested half back because, not only was it done & he didn’t say anything about it but, it’s an inconvenience on my behalf. he didn’t send me anything but $10 back. I do not recommend going to Shawn. it don’t matter I never asked you to diagnose anything that’s the point that you’re missing. if I called you SPECIFICALLY for a battery replacement & not for my belts my belts shouldn’t have been brought up. Obviously I knew about my belts before I called you for my battery & again if I didn’t it still didn’t give you the right to feel like you should insert yourself & then try to charge me for you telling me about when I never asked? I said what I said at the end of the day. Instead of telling me what you did to my battery post you left the debris on there & went about your day I had to CALL you for you to acknowledge that and you don’t see anything wrong with that? but again, I said what I said you sent me the rest of my money which is all I care about as of now🤏🏽. I don’t recommend anyone go to you unless they want their things halfway done. Take the criticism & choose to grow from it or continue to run from it either way it’s not hurting me.

My car wouldn’t start today and I had no idea what the problem could be. I Googled home car repair services and came across DMV Mobile Mechanic Repairs. I gave them a call, and the young man who answered was incredibly friendly and professional. I told him I suspected it was either the battery or the starter. He arrived in less than 30 minutes, quickly diagnosed the issue as a dead battery, went to the auto parts store, picked up a new one, installed it on the spot and just like that, I was back on the road! 😁 I HIGHLY recommend DMV Mobile Repair Services for any car repair needs. Fast, reliable, and professional service. Thank you so much! 🙌
