I’m beyond impressed with how easy and stress-free this was. I booked an appointment online, and within a few hours, a mechanic was at my home. He was kind, professional, and knew exactly what he was doing. He finished the repair faster than I expected and made sure I understood everything before leaving. My car is running better than ever.

I got tired of waiting two weeks for a dealership appointment, so I tried Instant Car Fix instead. Best decision ever! The mechanic was just as skilled, but I didn’t have to leave my house or deal with the hassle of drop-offs. I’ll be recommending this to all my friends!

Sergio did an outstanding job replacing my brake pads and rotors. He was knowledgeable, efficient, and kept me informed throughout the process. My brakes are now working perfectly, and the service was top-notch. Highly recommend Sergio for any automotive needs!

100% recommend and will use this service again! Mechanic are very professional and know what they are doing. They will get the job done and test and double test to make sure everything is fixed correctly! If you schedule an appointment they will fulfill their obligation. Even if they get behind schedule, just be patient and they will get you right! Much cheaper and more accommodating than a dealer! 10/10

The water pump went bad on our car, found instant car fix. Easy to schedule a repair and had it replaced on a Sunday and didn’t have to tow the vehicle or wait for the slow repair shops. I felt the pricing is more than fair for this service. You get a live quote when scheduling. Thanks instant car fix!!! 👍👍👍 I would recommend this to anyone, even if you know how to fix your own vehicle
