Ran into a problem working on my truck. Called Jim who called right back. Explained my issue sent pictures. Jim said he could come out next day, but recommended to try a few things to solve the problem. The first recommendation worked. Jim saved me a tow to the dealer, who caused the problem to begin with. I would definitely recommend Jim!! read more

GREAT service! The guys showed up early and were extremely efficient with the work I had to have done on my car - intake air boot, power steering needed addressing and I needed my brakes done. They had the parts for the brakes within an hour and were done in about 45 minutes. Their pricing was more than fair. I called around and found others to be two if not three times higher in price, not too mention most were flaky in getting back to me. Quality work and super professional! Thank you so much guys! I've met my new mechanic today! read more

After being stressed out for not being able to complete the front strut replacement on my wife's 2019 Honda Odyssey, I called Jim, who agreed to come by the following morning to complete the installation. Jim and Sam showed up early for our appointment, and we're able to finish everything in about an hour and a half. His pricing was more than reasonable, but the value really comes from his communication and ability to get the job done. If you need any mobile mechanic services, give Jim a call. I wish I could give more than 5 stars for getting me out of a bind on a holiday weekend. Thanks for the help, Jim and Sam! read more

Jim is great, came to help me with a rounded out bolt that was practically fused to the frame. I couldn't have done it without him. With his higher powered air compressor and chisel he was able to get the bolt off. Really appreciative of the great communication and efficient service read more

Murrieta Mobile Mechanic - Jim's Mobile Auto Repair - Auto Repair Near Me

Great, fast service! Answered all my questions. Very friendly. Mid ranged on price, and well worth it.

I called Jim to replace brake pads of my Toyota RAV4. Thankfully he was available the following day for the replacement. The scheduling was easy he showed up in time early morning. And replace all for brake pads at a very reasonable cost. It's very genuine and honest person and I highly recommend him. read more

I called about a quick air hose replacement and Jim came out in the morning the next day. I recently had a series of bad experiences with another local mobile mechanic so much to my relief Jim arrived on time. Jim was professional and completed to hose swap quickly. Jim provided quality and reliable work which is so important to me. I will only be calling him in the future. read more

OMG! the BEST service EVER! Jim figured out to to fix a brake light issue that the dealer couldn't. He is super professional, friendly, fast and affordable. My new forever mechanic :-) read more

I cannot say enough good things about Jim Reed. He was on time, very professional, even thought me some things I didn't know. His pricing was more than fair and will use him everytime we have a need. Thank you Jim! read more

The term trustworthy mechanic is usually considered an oxymoron. Not in this case! Jim is not only extremely knowledgeable but I was blown away by his integrity. My van was making a strange noise. I called Jim based on the positive online reviews I found and preferring a mechanic that could come to my house. Over the phone, he was able to quickly diagnose the issue as a bad oil filter and advised me on the type of filter to ask for when I take it back in to the place I recently had my oil changed. He could have easily come out to charge me for a diagnostic visit or an expensive repair and I wouldn't have known any better. I'm still in shock that such an honest mechanic exists! From now on, I won't be taking our vehicles to anyone else. read more

Awesome service and my car is running great! Thanks Jim and Sam for always being there when I need auto service. Highly recommend, wouldn't use anyone else! read more

Great customer service experience and fair prices. Would recommend for 5 star auto service

Jim Reed is an excellent, reliable, honest mechanic. I have had Jim out twice; he fixed my '96 Camry - diagnosed the problem expertly, got the part, came back and completed the repair (new distributor assembly) and the car works perfectly- engine timing is excellent. I also had him repair my 2011 Tundra; another technician told me i had a bad alternator; on my truck that's a $500 repair. Jim can ready to replace the alternator- but diagnosed the problem correctly- said - alternator's fine. It was a bad wire- that's all. The repair was $95. Jim is the first guy I've worked with for 'mobile service'- i had thought - 'they must do it better in an auto shop'. But i found he has everything needed on his truck and is able to operate with a lower overhead so his repair rates are lower. Each time he gave me the receipts for the parts - i could see exactly what the cost of the part was and the cost of labor. I also found it was SO convenient to have a guy come to the house so we didn't have to take two people's' time to go do a car drop off and pick up. Next time i have a car repair need I'm calling Jim. He's also a personable guy and easy to talk to. There's no 'intimidation factor' where the mechanic talks down to you so you feel dumb. I felt i got a great value from Jim's work- and i recommend him. read more

Great Job Taught me about my car battery and did a very quick job at a very reasonable rate. I appreciate this kind of service. I called a total of four people, some with 5-star reviews, he was the only one who showed up. I live in the wine country. Thanks, Jim. read more

Definitely my new GoTo. He arrived to our apt in less than 10 minutes. Jim was beyond helpful, he didn't just pull out his computer, charged me and left. NO, he went above and beyond. He lifted my car, checked all the wheels, the breaks, when he was unsure of something he re-lifted the car to ensure the wheels were moving and not locked. He checked the transmission oil, he advised me it needed change, however not immediately, also advised me about my breaks, same answer. Unlike other who would most likely encourage you to change them on the spot, Jim said it still had some life left. He did lastly pulled out his computer in case it was electric since he was able to fix the issue, just to assure us if the computer could diagnose something else electrical. Indeed it read something about the master cylinder. Told us it could've just been a one time thing that he has seen before. Anyways, highly recommend Jim in case you're like me, new in town, don't know anyone and simply hoped for the best! Thank you Jim read more

First time using Jim, but it definitely won't be the last. Very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He even put on the rear license plate of our new vehicle that wasn't part of the original "job description." Work well done, Jim! read more

Not saying he is not a good Mechanic but I will not know cause he failed to show up for an appointment? I guess business is good?

I had Jim come out to diagnosis my truck, he came out and recommended I have the battery changed and until then he can't check the code. I had to change the battery myself and when I called back he told me to run the car until the engine light came back on (the car would not stay running which was the problem). From my understanding when you call and auto repair place is because you need a professional to handle the repair not be told to do the job yourself so he can do his job. After I did all this he kept pushing off coming back to fully diagnosis and actually repair the issue instead kept brushing me off and then asking me to meet him somewhere when the car doesn't run more than a few seconds. Completely unprofessionally and a waste of time. Customer be aware!! read more

Had an Audi serviced and they did a fantastic job. Their prices where far below their competitors yet there quality of work far succeeded that of any other mechanic I have been to. In addition to them coming to you, Jim Reed's Mobile Auto Repair is a no brainer for anyone looking to get their vehicle repaired without dealing with ridiculous uncharges and standing at the dealer. read more

I can't say enough great things about Jim. I called him in the morning needing my bearings changed and it was my only day off and needed it done ASAP. He immediately met up with me without hesitation (which I'm sure he had to change his schedule around just to accommodate me) and diagnosed my car. He was extremely thorough and was immediately on the phone calling to see if he could find the parts to fix my car that same day. After he got the parts he fixed up my vehicle from the comfort of my home. ALSO, on top of his wonderful service he charged me twice as less as a shop quoted me over the phone (which was outrageously expensive) for the same service. He is just an all-round honest, hard working guy. I am beyond happy with the over all experience with Jim and I will without a doubt use him for all my auto mechanic needs in the future. Thank you so much Jim! read more

Jim is best, I work early in the morning 5am so Jim said he could come out to my job and do my repair. He was there by 7 and finished the job in less than an hour he's a real lifesaver. I'll be using him for all my car needs from now on honest and fast, best of all affordable! Thanks Jim So as my bad luck would have it my car had more problems. Cooling system this time, Jim as helpful and understanding a guy as you ll ever find helped me out once again. He fully diagnosed the problem and repaired it quickly getting me back on the road. He replaced my thermostat radiator and radiator fan. That's about $1k worth of parts and labor for my car. Jim got me rolling for way less than that. If you want an honest dependable hard working mechanic, Jim is the man! He'll go above and beyond to help out his customers. Simply the best!! read more

Got a ballpark estimate from Jim over the phone, so I had him come out. He was on time and very professional. He got the job done-new fuel pump-for even a little less than the estimate because one of the parts he might have needed to replace was still working fine he said. He was also very careful to make sure my driveway stayed clean by catching the gas, oil, etc. that always leaks out. Overall great experience. read more

Jim came out bright and early and found and fixed the problem pronto. Very knowledgeable and informative. Looking forward to using him in the future when any of our cars need help. read more

Jim made my whole day! When I called with my problem, he said he'd be right out and his rate was VERY reasonable...much lower than what I thought it would cost to fix. I can't recommend him enough! We will definitely be using him more in the future. read more

"Gimmie Jimmy!!!!" Seriously impressed and completely happy with Jims mechanic skills. He helped me out a few times while I was in trouble with my SUV and he took damn good care of me. Hes prompt, knowledgable, courteous and friendly. His work is top notch and I will gladly reccomend him!!!!! read more

Jim is awesome ! Needed brake pads installed on my CX-7 sent him a message via yelp and got right back to me. Set up a time and date and he was there keeping in touch the whole time to give a solid eta. Came by no pressure told him what I needed, let me know it would be an hr. Perfect! Called in 30 job done, couldn't be more suprised at the time and professionalism. Thanks Jim, I'll be in touch for future assistance. Also fair prices you won't find anywhere else. read more

I had Jim replace my headlight this morning. He was fast, friendly and efficient. Since he is generous with his time, he also helped take the battery out of my key fob for replacement (that took 5-10 minutes) and adjusted my steering wheel. He works mostly on Toyotas and Hondas. read more

Jim showed up early and fixed my problem in 10 minutes. Really nice guy and fair. Called him on his day off and he picked up the phone. Nice work Jim!! Will you use him again and again. read more

I hate the auto repair industry! Oh, the stories that I could tell. However, Jim Reed is a very bright spot in an industry that has a bad reputation. He immediately came over, did all sorts of test, and straightway found the problem - the engine starter. He immediately got the part and installed it within a very short time. He also checked all the fluids and inspected the car. What was amazing to me was that I suggested some other repairs to my car. HE INDICATED THAT THOSE REPAIRS WERE NOT NEEDED! Folks, this guy is the real deal - a honest great mechanic in an industry that often has a bad reputation. I keep his business card on my refrigerator, and he is now part of my inner circle. read more

It cost me $40 for Jim to replace my Prius front headlight bulb. I was absolutely satisfied with the work, the amount of time it took and the price. The dealership wanted $200 for the bulb which cost me $99 at Kragen auto parts, and another $200 for a certified Prius technician to do the work. It took Jim about 20 minutes and the dealership said their technician would take an hour! read more

Total freaking lifesaver!!! This man would get 100 stars if I could give them! Called with an issue that left me stumbled for 5 hours until I gave up. He was with another client and couldn't get out, gave me instruction. 2 minutes after the phone call problem was fixed axle was pushed back in and ready for wheel!! Thank you Jim you have earned all of my business in the future!! read more

Excellent service replaced my starater and had me back on the road in no time.very thorough and knowledgeable. Highly recommend jim gor any auto repairs read more

Jim was super helpful in diagnosing the issue w/ my 2001 4Runner. I would highly recommend using him. He was fare, honest and always responded promptly. read more

Very satisfied with Jim's services! Superb communication, he kept me updated on his other jobs and how soon he would be showing up to take care of my vehicle. Very professional and easy going, and his work gave me peace of mind. I love that he shows up to your doorstep and listens carefully before getting to work. I called an auto shop before him and they were more expensive and wouldn't even be able to schedule me until next week. Well, they lost out on a customer and Jim gained my business. Will keep on speed dial for any vehicle needs in the Temecula area! read more

jim is one of the besf mechanic i ever met he started this business in 91 so that should already tell you how much knowledge hes has . his price is beyond reasonable and he gets tbe job done and quick too! dont get ripped off save you some time and schedule an appointment with jim read more

Brilliant mechanic. I couldn't get a hold of Jim so I had another mobile guy come out and he said it was the starter motor and wanted $750, Jim called me back and had him come out for his thoughts. He came out and found it was just the battery cable and charged $85. I cannot recommend enough. Awesome service and honest as they come. read more

I want to give this review on Jim who my husband and I both agree is truly wonderful. I received a quote from Jim on my 1999 Chrysler Sebring. After what I thought was a broken alternator, Jim evaluated the vehicle to find that my alternator and battery were fine and that it was a belt that rotTed around the compressor and alternator that needed to be replaced, which at the time he didn't have. Jim worked feverishly to get exactly what he needed to fix my car. Now what I haven't told you is that my son was waiting on the car to be repaired so he could ship it back to the Mid-West. As a matter of fact he had scheduled to have it shipped that very day that Jim was scheduled to repair it. Jim went above and beyond to get the work done in a timely manner. I am happy to say, the car got out on time and having spoken to my son just today, I'm told the car runs like its brand new. According to him you can't even hear it running. If anyone has any question about Jim Reed, he's your guy. He's very honest, as well as reasonably priced. His quote to me was $300 less than two previous quotes from other mechanics. Plus no hassle with towing because he comes to you. I'm totally happy and will always call on Jim for any kind of mechanical repairs. Thanks Jim!!! 7/14/17 Just wanted to update, my son is still driving the 1999 Chrysler. Has not had one problem with the car since Jim repaired it. Had considered trading it in for a later model but decided to keep it because "it still purrs like a kitten". Thanks again Jim. read more

So this guy didn't like a previously posted bad review, which I removed when he asked to make things right. Then he gave me some bs about retiring, so he couldn't help me after all. Customer service? Sucks. He fixed my car once, never again. Ever. read more

Jim is the man. He has been fixing our cars since 2003, and has always made sure it was done right. Very honest person, and a cool guy to be around. He tells you what he thinks on a job, and tries to keep you informed about what is going on. Very knowledgeable, and has tons of experience. If he doesn't call you back immediately, don't worry about it! He is a very busy guy for a reason, and is probably underneath another car working!! Also, If a job is outside of his expertise (like my highly modded 2007 BMW 335i electrical issues were) he will tell you, and refer you to somebody else who knows better. Other shops will take your money, not fix it, then blame you! Sadly happened to me several times with my BMW. He has successfully fixed our 1990 Toyota pickup (once he even drove up to Irvine to help me when I was stranded), our 2003 Honda Accord, our 2004 Honda Element (including valve job), our 2003 Tacoma, my 2000 Nissan Xterra (multiple times), and has always worked with us to get the job right. If Jim is doing a job, you can be well assured that he is doing all he can to make sure it's done right.... I hope he is cool with me posting this, because he is a very busy man already haha. read more
