What a Mobile Mechanic Can and Cannot Fix
Mobile repair covers all repairs except transmission and engine rebuilds. Engine and transmission swaps are fine. Brakes, batteries, starters, alternators, belts, hoses and suspension parts can be done without a lift, so they can often be done where the car is parked. The car needs a safe, level place to work on.

Which repairs happen at your home or workplace?
Much of what goes wrong on a car is a worn or failed part that can be unbolted and replaced. That work needs tools, the part and a safe place to do it.
Every repair is offered except transmission and engine rebuilds. Engine and transmission swaps are done.

View belts and hosesWhich repairs suit a driveway?
Repairs that suit a driveway tend to have a few things in common.
- The part comes off and goes back on. Replacing a starter, alternator, water pump, belt or set of brake pads can be done without a lift.
- The car can stay where it is parked. If the repair does not need the car moved onto special equipment, it can stay where it is parked.
- The problem is a failed part. A dead battery or a failed starter is a part problem.
What is not offered?
Transmission and engine rebuilds are not done. A rebuild means taking the unit apart on a bench and putting it back together. Swapping a whole engine or transmission for another one is a different job, and it is done.
What does the car need to be parked on?
A car that is going to be jacked up needs firm, level ground and room around it. Think of a driveway, a parking spot at work, or a garage with the door open. A steep slope, soft ground or a tight spot with no room to take a wheel off can rule out a job that would otherwise be simple.
When you call or text, say where the car is parked.
