Does his phone work?? Call to never get a call back. unprofessional mechanic/business. From previous reviews this looks like it's a common issue.

I hired this company to replace my tensioner pulley and belt on May 18. Shane showed up with one of his “techs” who he left on my property to fix my vehicle without a way to leave when finished. The entire interaction seemed shady but I attempted to be kind even though they did not give off professionalism at all. Within a day, my car started squealing as if something was off, and I followed up with Shane, who asked me to meet him in a motel parking lot on the beach even though I had offered to meet at Publix. I called my boyfriend and he told me this seems off and weird, so I called Shane, who identified himself as the owner.. this will be important later, and told him I would be more comfortable meeting at a more public location so we met at a gas station. Upon hearing the squealing, he brushed it off as normal because of the “engineering” of my vehicle. He did attempt to be “helpful” and offered to fix a few other things on my vehicle but I felt like he was trying to flirt with me. At that point I just wanted to leave and my boyfriend was at work. I’d also like to point out that I literally shared my location to my boyfriend AND my mother during this meeting (AND I have receipts on that) because I didn’t feel good about being alone with him. This will also be important later. Less than six weeks later, the belt snapped completely while I was driving. When I reached back out, I was met with a defensive and unprofessional response accusing me of trying to get “free work,” even though I had reached out about the issue immediately after the initial repair. Instead of taking accountability or honoring any kind of workmanship guarantee, I was met with personal comments and gaslighting… this was my exact text to him: “Hi Shane, You and your tech John replaced my tensioner pulley and belt on May 18. I reached out shortly after because it was already squealing, and you mentioned it might’ve been due to the AC tube drip” Unfortunately, the squealing got worse, and today the belt snapped while I was driving home from taking my daughter to work. This shouldn’t be happening again so soon after a repair. I really need your help getting this taken care of — my daughter was able to find a ride home tonight, but I’m stuck without a working vehicle and need this fixed ASAP. Can you let me know what the next steps are? I’d really appreciate you standing by your work on this.” His first response was EXACTLY THIS: “I stand by MY. Work yes if you thinking g your gonna get something completely free.. your wrong... BUT I will definitely come help you.. bc that's what we do... where are you currently located” I was put off my this, so I responded: “ No, we’re not going to do that. To say you “stand by your work” and then immediately follow it up with “you’re not getting something completely free” is 1) wrong — because I did call you out when the issue happened right after the repair, and 2) completely unprofessional and rude. I expected you to take this seriously, not respond with attitude when I brought you a valid concern about a job you supposedly fixed barely a month ago. I’ll make sure I leave that google review” In fact, I’ll just post the text messages. The work was clearly faulty on the pulley THEY replaced, he has previously identified himself as the owner but in this particular text says “he’ll bring his boss” and the communication was beyond unprofessional. At that point I felt threatened and unsafe. After this unprovoked display of instability I looked him up and I see that he has also been arrested for multiple charges. There are plenty of other mobile mechanics in town.. don’t risk it. I do not recommend this company AT ALL.

We had to replace a fan, clutch and water pump on our limo over the weekend. They came right to my house as advertised. They were fast, courteous and did an excellent job. We will definitely use them again

Guy came out and basically guessed at what was wrong with my truck, quickly took my $100 for the diag then became hard to get ahold of when I was trying to figure out when he could do the work. Found out later the problem was something else. Feels like I got scammed out of $100.

I will recommend anyone who needs a good mechanic to stop right here , fair price and super polite and most of all professional. He arrived at my location and got right to work, he even showed a former mechanic a new way to do the job a different way. I’m impressed. Most importantly Thank you !

These folks are the best. I needed to have a new battery installed along with a new brake light switch on my 2001 Mercury Grand Marquis. This couple came to my home as promised and the repairs were done to my satisfaction. I will certainly use them again for any repair work. They are honest and hard working and went beyond what was expected by stopping at the auto parts store and buying the needed parts. Thanks for a job well done.

Highly recommend the mobile mechanic for any services! We needed specific lug nuts for our vehicle after some were cut off from getting new tires put on, and this company literally went above and beyond to hunt down the exact lugs we needed for our vehicle and had them installed very quickly. They drove all the way to our home and installed them at almost 9:00 at night because we were going out of town the next morning. Prices are more than fair and the service was impeccable. Give them a call today for your mechanical needs!

Once you work with them, you'll keep working with them. I needed an alternator replaced, and it took less than an hour. Extremely knowledgeable, courteous, and efficient, like the other reviews say, they will be in and out with a job well done. Thanks Shane & Paula!

Seriously! Don't waste your time calling! Otto or shane whatever the dude is called. After taking my 100 for diagnostics @9 i was constantly having to call to get an update on his arrival to fix, felt like he was constantly coming up with bs or whatever it was to not to do it. At this point its 430 an hr and half since i heard anything once i finally give in to take it somewhere else, he finally calls makes up some more bs of how he “couldn’t get ahold of me”. Like cmon dude i called you 6 times in the span of 5hrs. Worst experience with a mechanic ive ever encountered.

Called with a radiator hose failure at 530pm. Came out and fixed that evening for less than the cost to get it towed to a shop. Friendly service. Would definitely recommend

After driving 5 hours to PCB pulling our RV, I noticed fluid leaking from the rear end of my truck. I called The Mobile Mechanic, and he came out after 5pm on a Friday. He diagnosed the problem and came up with a solution that got us back on the road. Highly recommend The Mobile Mechanic.

Shane was amazing with my vehicle. I had a busted lightbulb on my headlight and he was able to fix it for a fair price. I highly recommend him out of everybody. He does not charge an arm in a leg.

I’d like to share this review as so other people can see it. We live out of town our daughter‘s car broke down in Panama City. They came out, diagnosed it and told us what the problem was. I paid them upfront which I shouldn’t have and they put a bunch of parts in the car that wasn’t needed. It still didn’t run right so after about 12 hours they gave up, took it to another mechanic that I trust has worked on my vehicle before said it the problem was a bad fuel injector. Not the coils not the spark plugs. The shop I took it to said the coils were installed wrong and that the problem initially was a fuel injector not anything else. Now they blocked our numbers and won’t return our calls. The only reason we used them they were on short notice and our regular mechanic couldn’t get to it that day.

Great mechanics, great people! I texted at 9:45PM letting them know my car had been over heating the next morning they were here. Unfortunately my car has more issues than we thought but their mechanic is adamant on finding the issue and fixing it! I will definitely use them until my car is fixed.

On this cold and windy day, stranded in a parking lot far from home, a call to The Mobile Mechanic resolved my problem. Shane ‘Otto’ quickly determined the problem with my vehicle and provided a cost estimate for the repair. On his way to buy the parts needed for the repair, he provided a family member that was with me a ride to pick up their vehicle so we would not be stranded while he was working on my vehicle (an estimated 2 to 3 hour repair job). I can’t say enough good things about the excellent service provided, and the cost for the vehicle repair was more than a fair price too. If any repairs are needed in the future, I have ‘Otto’ with The Mobile Mechanic on speed dial! Thanks for the great service!!

I had a flat and they came fast and were able to change it with no issues. Not to mention they were even so kind to go get me the correct tire so I didn’t have to drive on a spare and changed that one as well! Very fast and so professional!!!

Very professional, timely and decently priced. Otto came out almost as soon as I called to diagnose my 2005 Ford Taurus while I was at work and diagnosed it as a defective alternator (that I had just replaced) and he went and exchanged the part for me and replaced it within an hour! He even video chatted with me to show me the car was in good running order! If I ever need my vehicle worked on again, I will definitely be calling this company!
