As an entrepreneur from the age of 19. He has experience in Promotions, Marketing and Advertising to Business Management and Customer Service. In the early 90's Robert enrolled into ITT Tech and Field of study was EET Electronics Engineering Tech. While going to school he acquired a beeper business.
After 7 years pagers were going to be obsolete. Before they did he looked into other businesses. Buying and selling cars was presented to him and seemed to be a great income opportunity. Buying cars from auctions fixing and selling them turned out to not be as profitable as he hoped. When he was Buying and Selling cars, the vehicles that he would buy at auto auctions needed repairs.

This mobile repair company came to our home to repair routers on my SUV. He did not correctly tighten the lug nuts on one of the wheels and the wheel flew off on the freeway. Thankfully my husband wasn't injured. The remaining tire was stolen off the other side of the freeway and replacement couldn't be found so we had to buy 4 new wheels and tires. The owner offered to pay for ONE tire/wheel and could only do payments. We got about half the cost he agreed too then stopped responding. He didn't even offer to refund the cost of the router work he did. This man cost us over 1600 that

I called Auto repair angel, and Roberts voicemail said, do not leave a voicemail, as i do not have time to listen to voicemails, to text message him instead, so I sent a text message last week, with my name and # and he never responded,I text him again Monday morning, and said if you do not have time to take on another repair, to please text me and let me know, still no response, so my conclusion is, that he doesn't have time to respond to me, then I wouldn't want him working on my truck.

No one could answer the phone, no call backs, or text responses either. Nothing wrong with Auto Repair Angel just never heard back from them. I don't recommend waiting for a response since there won't be one. Mobile mechanics always too busy I recommend avoiding hassle and going to an auto repair shop. This is probably a business that was abandoned or perhaps too busy for anyone else who knows.

I have used Robert's services on several occasions over the years and he has always impressed me with his high-quality work and expertise. I've noticed that he will focus on getting the job done right even if it takes longer than expected, so anyone complaining in the Reviews about his scheduling conflicts needs to realize that sometimes doing a job right takes more time that can be predicted. When he arrives to work on your own car, you can be sure he will get it done right regardless of the time it takes, he won't just quit in the middle of the job to go somewhere else, and I respect that.

Robert came out to my place of residence then diagnosed my car problems accurately and quickly. So grateful! I was worried it was going to cost too much etc. His prices are fair and he is very good at what he does. I could not drive my car anywhere and his mobile service was an absolute blessing! I will be using him for other repairs in the future! Thank you!!

The Auto Repair Angel came to my house and fixed my car. Very convenient! Robert is a very talented and honest mechanic. He fixed a problem for half the price of a previous quote! He clearly explained several important things to me. I will be calling him for any future car issues. Robert is an affordable and reliable mechanic. Another happy customer!

He gave me the best service i’ve ever seen or had from a mechanic. He went totally out of his way to help me and stayed up literally all night long to help get me back on the road. It was supposed to be a quick easy fix but ended up being a 7 hour job and he stayed with me until he got me back on the road

I had a mechanic to come out to my house before contacting the Auto Repair Angel and he recommended that I buy a new engine for my vehicle. I decided to get a second opinion. That’s when I found the Auto Repair Angel online and I’m glad I did! Robert came to my house and repaired my vehicle without the extensive auto cost in which I was initially anticipating. Robert is reliable, friendly and honest and I plan to keep using him for all of my future auto needs.

Please take the time to read this. Robert Garcia is an unqualified Mobile auto repair mechanic. He will half A** the job. He will break things in the process. He will charge you if it breaks due to his negligence. Will never use his services again as he is not a responsible or reliable mechanic. Please spend the extra 30-40$ from somebody who is qualified to avoid issues later on. Please do not take the time to read the good reviews because I'm sure he has written those himself.

My fiancée's parents' van died and we got it towed to our house and we needed repairs to happen fast. We texted Robert and he came and diagnosed the problem. For that we are grateful and $70 poorer, but that's not the rub,
He tells us he has another job and needs to go to that and his girlfriend comes to bring him food. For real?! That was red flag #1. Then he tells us we need to go to Autozone and buy the part he needs, and gives us a quote and promises to come by at 5:30 PM, about 4 hours later. So far, no show, no response to calls or texts and my fiancée is stuck here and

Scheduled for him to come out and work on my cars AC and he never showed or responded to me. I had rearranged my entire schedule that night to accommodate him. I get a text from him a day or two later apologizing and asking my next availability. I agreed to try again that week and offered to bring my car to a friends home (he had agreed to look at her car as well and scheduled with her) for convenience sake. My friend, her father and I all waited for him for 3 hours. We all called and texted repeatedly with NO response. His voicemail even says he doesn't check his voicemails. All of us had

BEWARE!!!
DO NOT USE THIS SCAM ARTIST!
The first couple of times that you use Robert Garcia, he's polite, arrives on-time, answers your texts and calls, and does a wonderful job! Then, it is all downhill from there!
I needed a head gasket on my 2003 Toyota Camry. Robert would do some work on her and say he has to go get a tool or part and return 5 hours later. SERIOUSLY!?
My engine was torn apart in my garage while he would return to work on her for a whole WEEK! He finally just didn't come back or return texts and calls! The parts I bought from Ebay weren't even necessary!

Horrible experience. Seems professional over the phone. Supposed to be a MOBILE mechanic but claimed that a 30 minute drive to my house was too far. Complained about the heat so we met up in the middle. He inspected my car and charged me $70 for it but I needed to get the part so he recommended I buy a cheap one from Ebay and he would install when I was ready.. I bought the part and when it came time for him to come fix it, I couldn't get in contact with him and when I did he acted as if he didnt want to do the job. Cancelled on me twice. So I got another mechanic to do it but it turns out

Kept rescheduling. Finally showed up 2 days later, took $180 to replace the front gasket. He didn't have the proper tools and ripped the bumper off. He broke my Audi's headlight clamp, told me he would come back to glue it back into place. Never did.
Not to mention the front gasket leak still persists. Told me he would follow up, but never did. Bummer, he seemed really professional on the phone.

If I could leave 0 stars I would. He quoted me $150 to the job 4 motor mounts, and I buy parts, I agreed, he missed first appointment, and didn't talk to me for an entire day. Once he did contact me, I chose to give him benefit of the doubt, and reschedule a time in the evening during the week. on 10/25 (thinking maybe it's better than in the morning). He arrived on time, and started working, got most of the job done,I had to go to sports practice and decided to pay him up front,obvious mistake on my part, but he was so close to being done when I left, and I didn't think anything

Robert drove out to San Tan Valley to help me finish work on my Volkswagen. I had lost a spring inside the engine compartment and didn't have the necessary tools to find it and complete the repairs I was doing.
He found the spring in a tight space and fished it out and completed the repair for me saving me over $800 in dealer cost for the repair.
Very happy with the results of Robert's hard work and patience.

I admit I was a bit hesitant to use a mobile mechanic but seeing as how the car wouldn't start I figured I'd give it a shot.
I spoke with Robert on the phone the evening prior to his arrival at my house. He was knowledgeable, courteous, polite and respectful of my time.
He showed up at my house on time and was able to quickly diagnose the problem with my vehicle. He was able to locate parts at a local auto supply store and quickly replace them. He even test drove the vehicle.
I'd highly recommend him to my friends and family. Thanks Robert!!
