    The biggest shout out to Chief Mobile Mechanic for helping me through my recent car stress! I had a hose pop off in my engine out of nowhere and we had one mechanic look at it and simply reattach, while not mentioning anything else being an issue. The very next day, the hose popped off again Safe to say I was very stressed and having this happen in the middle of the week with work was not ideal. Luckily, we called right as they opened and they were able to come to our location within the hour. I was worried being in an apartment complex would make it difficult to service, but our mechanic was able to set up easily and pointed out that it was actually the radiator that needed to be replaced - which was never addressed by my first fix. We were able to have it all fixed day of, and he even went out of his way to ensure the parking spot was cleaned up. After driving it through the week I can safely say the problem is resolved and I'm so relieved the process with Chief Mobile Mechanic made alleviated some of that stress. Highly recommend!

    I had 4 people look at my car and only Ali was able to fix it. He came at the time he said he would, gave a diagnostic, then proceeded to identify the problem accurately. 10/10 experience. Highly recommend him.

    The service i requested from Ali was a pre-purchase inspection of a used car. He found a lot of issues with the car; not ready for smog check, needed all new struts/suspension, needed new radiator, needed new timing belt, and discovered the car had been in an accident. He saved me from buying a bad car. Very grateful for his help. He's also very fast to respond to calls/messages.

    My car broke down in a shopping center and I found Chief Mobile Mechanic on Yelp. Ali responded within 10 minutes of contacting him. I purchased the parts and paid him the labor. The value and quality of work was outstanding. P.s. I would recommend that you consider this local business.

    Cracked oil filter

    Ali was a life saver! I took on the challenge of doing my own oil change. Well everything went wrong for me. I struggled with removing an oil filter. After struggling with it, I cracked it and oil started leaking out of it. At this point, I was helpless, because I couldn't take my car anywhere because driving it will damage the car. Ali texted me right away and was at my house within 30-45min. Ali removed my old filter like a pro! Luckily, I already had another one to replace it with. His price was reasonable considering the emergent need for his service. Thank you Sir Ali!

    price is fair. Long story short, Ali came to work on my 07 van cause I had other things to do. He informed me that it was misdiagnosed and gave me all the info I needed. On top of all this, Ali was on time, very friendly, knowledgeable, and informative. Next time I'm in a pinch and don't have the time to do the work myself, I'm calling Ali for sure. Thank you, Ali.

    Do you do transmissions removal and install? I have a 2008 Toyota Sienna AWD, already got a used transmission and just need the old one pulled from the van and the used one installed. Let me know what you would charge. Thanks!

    Sorry this is last to be at the shop

    Jesse is the reason my cat is alive…read more Last weekend, during the Garden Grove toxic chemical evacuation, my tuxedo cat decided that the undercarriage of my cousin's Tesla Model Y was a great hiding spot. It was not. He was wedged in there for 12 hours with no food, no water, and zero litter box access. He was absolutely losing it. I ran through every option. Fire department? Busy with the actual chemical explosion rattling all of OC, fair. Animal control? Ghosted me. My cousin, currently out of the country, tried Tesla Roadside Assistance through the app. Tesla's answer: their technicians are not trained to rescue animals. Noted, but deeply unhelpful in the moment. Two other mechanics passed too. Jesse was my third Yelp attempt and my last real option. He showed up within two hours, no fuss, and got straight to work. He tried everything - the frunk, underneath, removing the right wheel - methodically working different angles for an hour and a half because my cat had chosen the most inconvenient possible position to be chonky in. Jesse stayed patient the entire time and got him out safely. My cat is home. He is fine. He is completely unbothered, as cats are. Jesse showed up when nobody else could. That is not something I will forget. Oh, and his prices are insanely reasonable. If you need a mechanic who will actually show up and problem-solve, Jesse is your guy.

My experience was called to book on Monday morning, quoted the price based on easy to describe work and an appointment for Wednesday at 8AM. So I adjust my schedule and am ready. No show, no answer calls or texts until a call at 930 - where he apologizes for issues on Tuesday and will show up at 5PM. Fine. I'll adjust my evening plans too. An organized person would have adjusted plans and communicated Wednesday if they had issues/delays Tuesday. Then, at 2PM calls back and says looking more like 530PM. And then he says... oh? Did I give you a price already? Oh that's actually a lot of work and says it'll actually cost 60% more. That was enough to call it quits. While I can't speak to his mechanic abilities, he fell short on: 1) being able to accurately understand and estimate work before quoting, or worse, stick to his quote when he gets busy 2) ability to plan his schedule and communicate reasonably. I hope he learns from this and other experiences and reaches his potential through better consistency.

    I had a really great experience at this shop and honestly can't recommend them enough. A few weeks…read moreago, my catalytic converter was stolen, and I had it replaced at another shop. After that repair, my check engine light suddenly came on--even though it wasn't on before. The first shop told me it was a problem with the mass air flow sensor and tried to charge me to fix it, which didn't feel right to me. So I decided to come here for a second opinion, and I'm really glad I did. The mechanic took the time to properly diagnose the issue and walked me through everything step by step. Within about an hour, he figured out that it wasn't the air flow sensor at all--it was just a blown fuse. That alone saved me a lot of money and potentially from being overcharged elsewhere. What really stood out was the honesty and communication. He explained clearly what went wrong, didn't try to upsell anything, and made sure I understood the situation. On top of that, he even aired up my tires for free, which was a nice touch. Fast, honest, and affordable service like this is hard to find. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending this shop to others.

I had a concern that maybe the price was so good because they were using tires that were patched or something but nothing could be further from the truth! They shared were they source their tires from and rest assured you're getting a great deal for sometimes practically new tires. These guys and girls are the real deal. They have earned a life time customer and my trust to send my friends and family in the future!
