Our story
A shop that treats your car like family
My Mechanic is a car repair and maintenance shop on 10th Street in San Francisco's SoMa. Drivers come to us for straight answers: when another shop says a car is dead, we're the second opinion that takes the time to figure it out. And more than once, we've had that car purring again for a fair price.
We explain exactly what your car needs and why, in as much detail as you want, and we keep you in the loop while the work happens — some customers even get photos of their engine as it goes back together. No upselling, no mystery line items. Just clean, precise work from mechanics who know many different types of cars, from Subarus to a beloved '95 Jeep Wrangler.
- Second opinions that save cars other shops gave up on
- Photo updates and clear communication during repairs
- Comprehensive inspections before any work begins
- Experience across many makes and models
What customers say
“Another shop had told me my car was dead, and they could not figure out how to fix it. Had it towed to My Mechanic for a second opinion, took some work but they figured it out and repaired it for a really fair price and did not try and up sell me on anything. Car is running great again.”
“Friendly, professional, clean, and fast. We brought our 2004 Subaru Forester here for double head gasket replacement. Jhovanny stayed in communication with us throughout the process, sent us photos of the engine as it was being reassembled. We just took the car on a 300 mile trip and it purrs and runs smoothly.”
“Warren Ko, owner of My Mechanic, is one of the most honest, caring, fair auto mechanics in San Francisco. He makes you feel like he is treating you the same way he would treat a family member.”
