Mobile Mechanic in Riverside, CA

This is our second shop. The other one is in Hemet. Three freeways meet here, the 91, the 60 and the 215, so it's an easy place to send trucks out from. Our mechanics leave from Riverside for Jurupa Valley, Moreno Valley, Corona and the towns around them. Most Riverside calls go to David or Raul.

The cars here are all over the map. UC Riverside students drive 15-year-old Civics. People who work downtown near the Mission Inn drive new SUVs. Warehouse and logistics workers drive trucks home to the neighborhoods south of Magnolia. We see every one of those in the shop, and we set the maintenance schedule by how you drive.

Three-Freeway Commute Wear

The 91/60/215 interchange is one of the busiest in California. Sitting in it every day heats up a transmission and wears down brakes faster than normal driving does. We see transmission service needs sooner than the factory schedule suggests, and brake jobs on commuter cars often come due at 25,000 to 35,000 miles instead of the highway-driving 50,000 to 70,000.

If you drive the 91 west toward Orange County or the 215 south toward Perris, we suggest a brake check every 10,000 to 15,000 miles and a transmission fluid service every 30,000 to 60,000 miles depending on the vehicle.

UC Riverside, Student Cars, and Older Vehicles

UC Riverside brings tens of thousands of students to town, and a lot of them drive older cars with big miles. We fix a lot of student Civics, Corollas and Sentras on a budget so they last through finals week. Students usually call about engine repair for misfires and oil leaks, electrical diagnostics for cars that won't start in cold mornings, timing belt service, and inexpensive oil changes with full inspections.

If you break down on the drive home, we do roadside assistance across the Inland Empire. Call us before you sit on the shoulder of the 91 with a dead battery during midterms.

Fleet Service for Riverside Businesses

Plenty of small businesses here run a few vehicles. Delivery vans, plumbing and HVAC trucks, landscaping rigs, food trucks. We run fleet service out of the shop on a schedule. Fleet work goes to the front of the line, we can book several vehicles at once, and routine oil changes and brake jobs get a bulk price. We do diesel repair for the bigger trucks too.

If you run 3 to 30 vehicles, call us. Every day a truck sits costs you money, so we try to get it back out fast.

Shop, Mobile, or Both

You can bring the car to the shop. Walk-ins are welcome and we can usually get to it the same day. Or book the mobile mechanic and we come to your home or office. The price is the same either way. We also do cooling system service, suspension repair, and full computer diagnostics.
