Do not prepay for any services from YourMechanic. I pre-paid for services and called today for my account balance and they informed me that my credit expired. This was not a credit that was freely given from the company, this was my own money that I had entrusted with them to keep for my use at a later date.

Screwing me around for two weeks and ripped me off so far $288. I have now paid $788. And they are trying to get me to pay an additional $650. They have chrg cc and refuse to return my $ despite my calls. A job that should have cost me a total $700 keeps getting strung out so they can rip me off. Take your car to a reputable shop...

Car is still not running properly. I was charged for parts and labor I was not aware of. When all was said and done the took almost $1,000 from me. Money I don't have. I have sent repeated emails and voicemails. They want to charge me $159.00 to come look at the car they never fixed. I attached one of three invoices I paid,

Installed brakes backwards
June 18, 2024

Their mechanic installed brakes backwards and charged me for the pleasure. *If* your assigned mechanic actually shows up, they will be so unskilled as to install brake pads backwards. They only use one mechanic in my city yet said that I should have him come back out and fix it. If he can't install brake pads correctly, how can he fix them?

This has been the worst experience I have ever had with a mechanic. I took a day off and waited, they never called or showed up. I was on the phone calling them, and no one could help. I requested a supervisor and it took hours for someone to call me back. They apologized and gave me a discount, so I gave them a second chance. Again, took the day off, and they never showed. Then I took the car to my local auto shop, and they quoted me 400.00 less. Go elsewhere folks!

It has been 5 or 6 years since I used YourMechanic. I used them 3 times maybe 4, and except for one time I have been pleased with the service and the cost. Today I went to the website to get an estimate for a power steering pump replacement and a serpentine belt replacement. The cost of labor has doubled, and when I opted to supply my own parts the cost of labor increased more. In the past the cost of labor was the same whether or not they supplied the parts. Also the estimate for the serpentine belt included the 2 belts for some unknown reason. I guess it is a way to charge over $100 dollars for one belt.

Buyer Beware
April 4, 2024

I thought I would try our their service as I needed a new starter for my car (a fifteen year old Toyota with the original starter). It's a very convenient service, but buyer beware.

They came out with some remanufactured part and they worked fast. I was grateful as I depend on my car to get to work and I cannnot be late. They gave me 12 month or 12k mile warranty. Well guess what?

In the 10th month the car didn't start, but since it happened once, I figured I didn't turn the key fully. Well, at exactly 11 months as 12,300 miles, the starter failed again. Talk about frustrating. 300 miles over their warranty and because I gave them the benefit of the doubt a month earlier by thinking it was my mistake versus their defective part, I get to get someone else to work on my car and pay them another fee.

Such a scam. DO NOT USE these people. They will rip you off and won't even bother to email you back when you reach out to them. Stay far away. If you need a mobile mechanics, try Repair Smith. They are backed by Auto Nation and won't hide from you when you encounter a problem.

Shame on Your Mechanic.

I arranged services with this company through Afterpay, The first appointment set for 4 days out. I appointment was set for Monday, so I called on Monday to confirm rates and to make sure they had my order correct for Brakes and Rotors. The customer service lady said yes. Then Sunday the day before the appointment I received a text that the price increased. I texted back asking what was the new rate. I was advised that it was going to be $250. I called customer services they quoted me $350. After going back and forth they settled with the amount that was told over the text. We rescheduled the amount. The day of the appointment they come out and I was told they could not do it because it was an apartment which should have been advised from the beginning. They canceled and charged me $150 for canceling the appointment. They are out of the DP and horrible. I would not suggest this service to anyone. AT ALL.

Upset in Conyers, GA
February 21, 2024

My husband set up the appointment for this morning, paid in advance to get the $50 discount. The mechanic shows up, finds that his oil tank was leaking, so he leaves & didn't come back. Contacted Customer Service and they told us that the service had been rescheduled and it would be $200 more. We were very detailed in telling them the services needed, we even had the parts & oil.

Avoid scam site
February 1, 2024

Everything about this is a scam. Mechanic came hours late, claimed they couldn't perform the service due to a bolt I hate (it's the same bolt on every year, make, and model), then offered to install it on the side for cash another day. Now they're trying to charge me for the service and part (which the mechanic took with them). This was a scam from the start by the mechanic and the website. Avoid at all costs, literally.

*DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY *
Schedule An appointment for 01/19/*******@10:30, Waited 6days for the appointment, the mechanic rescheduled the *******@10:15am, rescheduling the appointment 7 days out 11/25/2024, & when calling about the appointment the customer service agent laughed in my ear as I was explaining what happened and asking for information on a new appointment, if the mechanic rescheduled the company still charges you a $150 cancellation fee, the agent also refused to assist me or give me his name or transfer me to another agent instead,he transferred me to Firestone customer service, this company gives me scamming vibes

The customer service is very rude and the mechanics do not follow the 48 hour reschedule/ cancellation request, and leaves you waiting, taking off work for a while day, very inconvenient and inconsiderate.
I would not recommend to use the service I'm stuck because I can't get my money back they would only offer to give you a "your mechanic credit" but after having a bad experience you wouldn't want to go back to them for an oil change so it's a complete lost DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY *

I booked an appointment on Thursday for Sunday (Jan 14) and Kenneth was pretty much a no call no show. I called customer service and they wanted to reschedule. However the next available time is Wednesday afternoon. I feel like they knew these mechanics and services are not available on Sundays. So don't give people the option to book on Sunday.

This company should take the time and close the doors. After rescheduling twice with no communication that the mechanics were not showing up or going to be late, they try to reschedule for a 3rd time before I told them no thanks I'd rather push my car to the nearest cliff and push it off rather then keep working with a scamming company. Because that is what this company is, nothing much scammers, if you like working with people who take your money and promise to provide you with a service and never do, "your mechanic" is the place you are looking for. Takes your money and lies so they can keep your money, till you threaten them with a lawsuit. In my opinion, walking is better than dealing with these people.
