Our story
Marin Mobile Mechanic is owner-operated by Rick, and that changes everything about how car repair feels. There's no waiting room, no shuttle ride, no leaving your car at a shop for days. Rick comes to your driveway, your office, or wherever your car decided to quit, diagnoses the problem on the spot, and communicates clearly at every step. Customers across Marin County call on us for everything from transmission trouble and worn ball joints to a dead alternator on the side of the road in Novato. When a part needs ordering, Rick tracks it down fast: in one recent job, he sourced and installed the correct ball joints in under 48 hours, sooner than any shop could. We're available seven days a week, 9 AM to 7 PM, and our work speaks for itself: a 4.9-star rating across 56 Google reviews. You may also get a visit from Cowboy, the amazingly sweet dog who tags along on the job.
What customers say
“Rick, the owner and operator, did great work on my ball joints. Even after a minor hiccup with the size of the joints, he was able to order and receive the correct size joints less than 48 hours later, which was before any other shop could. Friendly guy who communicates very well. If you are in Marin County, Rick is the guy to go to for your auto repair needs.”
“Rick was an amazing help with my Subaru. It had an issue with the transmission & he was able to fix it at a great rate. His communication was clear & consistent throughout the process. Highly recommend him.”
“Alternator went out unexpectedly while on a quick trip to Novato and Rick was great! Super quick as well! He was our hero! Thank you so much!”
