SOCAL MOBILE MECHANIC - Anaheim (CA)

5 /5 MU: Just sharing that this page and the services are legit. I have my break pad fixed. Happy and satisfied that my car is no longer making noise when braking and backing up. I called at 8:00 pm, at first I want to cancel because he said that he will be in the area by 10pm, homeowner did not agree with the time said, he called me that he can arrange early, showed up, super fast. By the way I highly recommend Philip, with a great price saving, plus super convenient and easy to communicate. 100% satisfied. Thank you so much. I will surely need his service in the future. Kudos to Philip

5 /5 Steven Garcia: I don’t usually write a review ever but this mechanic is amazing, I called him at 11 pm because I needed my brake pads changed on my Mercedes s550, I was in a huge rush and needed them done tonight as soon as possible, with no hesitation he told me to bring my car and we got the parts and he successfully changed my brake pads. He is an honest mechanic and helped me understand everything, I will be coming to him from now on. I recommend him to anyone that needs a mechanic, if I could give him more than 5 stars I would. Thank you so much!

5 /5 Eric Boudon: We got a punctured tire at 2am, far from home and he saved us! He came super quickly and resolved in couple of minutes! Highly recommend! Reasonable rates for late night fees Thanks again, appreciate it!

1 /5 Omair Siddiqui: I found Felipe through a Google search when my trusty ’97 Tacoma started leaking power steering fluid. The reviews looked decent, so I figured I’d give him a shot. Big mistake. What should have been a simple rack and pinion replacement turned into a complete nightmare—shoddy work, stolen tools, and a truck that was literally dangerous to drive afterward. First, he was supposed to show up at 12 PM on Friday to diagnose the issue. He rolls in at 3 PM with no real apology, which, fine, things happen. He confirms it’s a rack and pinion leak and tells me to order a new one. I showed him the exact part I wanted—a quality OEM-style replacement—and he just nodded and said, “Yeah, that’ll work.” No suggestions, no warnings, nothing. When the part arrived, I called him back to do the install. Again, he was late—showed up hours after he said he would. At this point, I just wanted the job done, so I let it slide. He gets to work, and when he’s finished, I take my truck for a test drive. Immediate red flags. Every time I hit the brakes, the steering wheel jerked violently to the left, and the whole front end shook like something was about to fall off. I’ve driven this truck for years—it never did this before. I took it to a trusted alignment shop to see what was wrong, and they were horrified. The rack wasn’t centered, the tie rod ends weren’t pinned properly, and the left tire was actually hitting the frame at full lock. They couldn’t even align it because Felipe had installed everything so poorly. Oh, and guess what? There was now a brand-new power steering leak from one of the hoses he messed with. The shop gave me a full list of everything wrong—missing bolts, loose fittings, and a half-assed job from top to bottom. When I called Felipe to tell him about the issues, he blew up at me. Started screaming that it wasn’t his fault, that the alignment shop was lying, that I must have taken the truck off-roading (it’s a pavement-only daily driver). Then he had the nerve to say, “How do I know it wasn’t doing this before?” Dude, I’ve owned this truck for a decade—I know how it drives. And here’s the kicker—he stole my breaker bar. I checked my Ring camera, and sure enough, there he is, walking out of my garage with it tucked under his arm. After all the terrible work, the lying, the yelling, he stole from me on top of it. I should’ve called the cops right then, but I just wanted him gone. In the end, I had to pay another mechanic to fix his disaster, and they had it done right in under an hour. Meanwhile, Felipe refused to refund a single cent, even though my truck was worse off than when he touched it. The whole point of hiring him was to stop the power steering leak, and instead, he added a new one. Do not hire this guy. His Google reviews might look okay, but my experience was a total scam. He’s incompetent, unprofessional, and a thief. If you care about your car—or your sanity—stay far away. Zero stars Edit: 4/14/2025. Added screenshots. Supposedly I am not a real person as Felipe claims and and he ‘never did work for me’. So I took the liberty of uploading the screenshots of our text messages to prove he is a straight up liar. Instead of owning accountability, he dismisses his problems and lies to get out of them. Thanks for the poor sportsmanship after you ended up costing me thousands. !

5 /5 Chellie Shelle: So Cal Mechanic was awesome to help us out on Presidents Day weekend! We had to have the wheel bearing replaced on our truck and couldnt get the hub off. We contacted them on short notice to come and help us out and they were there to assist and help us get everything put back together so we could get home safely the next day. We highly recommend them and are so appreciative of all they did for us!
