    I would never recommend this place they have no clue how to rebuild a transmission they lied about everything and all the work they let our jeep sit out there day after day turned into weeks never fixed our transmission charged us full price the judge in the case ruled on their behalf for some weird reason he didn't even look at the evidence but fortunately enough life goes on but I wouldn't recommend this place unless you want something bolted on.

    Tony and Neal did the most fantastic design and fabrication project on Rusty Bob, my 1979 Toyota Pickup 4x4. I needed a front bumper, grill guard, to hold/hide a 10,000lb winch, with a couple of spotlights, d-rings, etc. that would fit with the truck's aesthetic. They completely R.O.C.K.E.D. it! They sat with me as we drew the initial concept, we talked through basic look and feel I wanted, they included me in choosing materials, and made knowledgeable inputs to create the strength and superstructure to hold everything up, and creatively problem-solved (check out the turn signals!). Even a quick glance at the quality of the welds and shapes created by the pipe bender tells you that they are passionate about their craft. Frequent updates, questions about fit and finish and regular shop visits to review the work in progress confirmed my confidence in them and the the rest of the team. But the real "magic" came at the end. From the get-go I was adamant that the finish should NOT look new. I wanted it to blend in with the 40 years of Texas weathering that Rusty Bob has been through. No glossy black paint, no shiny chrome, I wanted it down and dirty - and they nailed it. Once the tubing and mesh had been been finalized Tony hand-painted the raw steel with salt water and left it out in the sun, not once, not twice, but three times over until the steel had patinated to exactly match the rest of the trucks body. That's what I call dedication! The customer service, collaboration, communication, and budget management could not have been better. High quality, on time, and under budget! Kudos to the gifted and visionary Bikini Offroad team - I will always be thankful for the work you did and I'm proud to drive Rusty Bob around town as so many other truck drivers give the thumbs up as we pass each other!

    The entire Team at Bikini Offroad is just AMAZING!! They are experts in everything when I comes to Jeeps. If you have questions they are always more than happy to answer them and they have even found several ways to save me money. I would recommend this Team to any and all Jeep owners. Tony is an awesome and goes above and beyond to take care of every customer. Thanks Bikini for being the San Antonio Jeep Experts!!

    I had an amazing experience with YD Automotive Mobile Services! I was in the process of looking for…read morea family car and Yousri, the mechanic, went above and beyond by coming out to diagnose the vehicle I was considering. He was extremely honest, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything so I fully understood what was going on before making a decision. On top of that, Yousri was able to fix the AC on my current car something multiple other shops couldn't figure out. That alone says a lot about his skill and experience. Super reliable, professional, and genuinely helpful. I highly recommend YD Automotive Mobile Services and Yousri if you're looking for someone you can truly trust!

    I cannot recommend Y/D Automotive after my experience with their mobile repair service…read more I found them through Google and contacted them for an alternator replacement. I was quoted about $585 for parts and labor. A technician came to my location around 3:00 PM, removed my alternator, then discovered he had brought the wrong replacement part. After checking multiple auto-parts stores, I was told the correct alternator would be about $950 plus $175 installation. Since that was substantially more than the original quote, I declined and asked only that my original alternator be reinstalled and the vehicle returned to the condition it was in before the work began. That did not happen. The technician spent several more hours trying to reinstall the alternator and drive belt but could not get the belt back on. I even spent about an hour trying to assist. Around 10:00 PM I told him to stop for the night. I paid him $60 for his time and was told another technician could come finish putting the vehicle back together. My vehicle was left undrivable overnight. The next morning Y/D initially told me someone would call back within 10-15 minutes to arrange another technician. That call did not come. I was later told all technicians were booked and someone could come the following morning around 10:00 AM. I could not leave my vehicle undrivable for another full day, so I hired an independent automotive technician to inspect it. He found that the drive-belt tensioner operating point/bolt had been stripped and could no longer be properly operated. I received an estimate of $449.65 to replace the tensioner assembly alone, separate from the alternator repair I already needed. When the independent technician returned to address the belt issue, he discovered that my original alternator had also been reinstalled incorrectly. It was not properly seated, and one mounting bolt was misaligned and not positioned through its proper mounting point. I am including a photo of that condition. According to the independent technician, the misaligned alternator prevented the belt from fitting correctly around the accessory system. He advised that the stripped tensioner was consistent with excessive force being applied while attempting to install the belt with the alternator improperly positioned. He also advised that the tensioner otherwise appeared to function normally apart from the stripped operating point. Once he properly seated and aligned the alternator, the belt could be installed correctly. The technician has agreed to document his findings in writing and, if necessary, testify regarding what he personally observed and his professional opinion. What disappoints me just as much as the mechanical work is how this was handled afterward. I repeatedly gave Y/D Automotive opportunities to resolve this directly. Despite already paying additional inspection and corrective-service costs, I initially asked only for the $449.65 cost of replacing the damaged tensioner. I specifically told them I was not asking them to pay for the alternator I already needed, my additional diagnostic expenses, corrective work, lost business income, transportation issues, or my time. I later made an even broader attempt to resolve this. After researching the business, I came to believe the technician who worked on my vehicle may also be the person operating Y/D Automotive. Because I am a small business owner myself and understand that people can get in over their heads, I offered to waive the $449.65 request entirely in exchange for an honest account of what happened, acknowledgment of the damage, and a sincere apology. That message was sent through multiple business communication channels, and some showed as read. I received no response resolving the matter. At this point I am beginning the formal process of pursuing recovery of my documented damages and expenses. I would have preferred to resolve this directly, but I am not willing to absorb damage to my vehicle and the resulting costs. Everyone makes mistakes. What matters is how someone handles them afterward. Based on the work performed on my vehicle and the way this situation has been handled, I absolutely cannot recommend Y/D Automotive. I am including supporting photographs and documentation where the platform allows so readers can evaluate the circumstances for themselves.

    Very disappointed with my experience with Ryan. My vehicle is a 2019 GMC Sierra, and I contacted…read morehim because my truck had a coolant leak and I already strongly suspected that the radiator needed to be replaced. Before coming out, he told me he would still need to diagnose it and charged me $115. After paying the $115 diagnostic fee, I was basically told exactly what I already knew, the radiator needed to be replaced. Then I was informed that he couldn't actually do the repair because the job required the A/C refrigerant to be recovered and he didn't have the equipment necessary to do that. His recommendation was for me to take the truck to a repair shop. My biggest issue is, if you're advertising yourself as a mobile mechanic/certified technician and charging $115 just to come diagnose a problem, I would expect you to either have the equipment necessary to perform common repairs or be upfront BEFORE charging the customer that you may not be equipped to complete the job. On top of that, I felt his labor quote was extremely high. He quoted me $700 JUST FOR LABOR to replace the radiator on my 2019 GMC Sierra. I ended up taking my truck to an actual radiator shop, and they charged me only $300 for the labor. That's a $400 difference for the same radiator replacement. So I essentially paid Ryan $115 to tell me I needed the radiator I had already told him I believed I needed, was quoted $700 in labor, and then was told he couldn't even perform the repair because he didn't have the necessary A/C equipment. Based on my experience, it left me feeling like collecting the diagnostic fee was more important than actually repairing my vehicle. I would not use this service again. I would strongly recommend asking exactly what equipment he has and whether he can actually complete your repair BEFORE agreeing to pay the $115 diagnostic fee.
