Speaking of ASE TESTING....Did you know that ASE only requires a technician to have two years of experience in the field. This means he could be a lube man or parts counterman who works for a recycler...THIS DOESNT SAY MUCH ABOUT THE TESTING PROGRAM AND WHO IS PROPERLY QUALIFIED.
Do you know who is working on your vehicle at the shop you take your vehicle too? Probably not because you deal with a Service Writer. You have the right to ask about who is working on your vehicle. These owners have to hire untrained mechanics and hope they can do the work right. YOU ALSO HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASK FOR YOUR OLD PARTS AND INSPECT THEM AFTER THE REPAIR. This company leaves all old parts in your vehicle for you to inspect and dispose of them.
My service rates are;
$45.00 an hour for most other component repairs but some larger services like engine and transmission or related replacement repairs are a higher labor rate.
If you know what flat rate means at $45.00 per hour-THAT IS VERY INEXPENSIVE, THIS AMOUNT IS ABOUT HALF THE COST OF THE BIG SHOPS!!
I own the same software and technical support those big shops use to do estimating. You won't find very many MOBILE TECHNICIANS with this software, so I urge you to be careful who you select to repair your vehicle. If they do not have access to the technical support services like I do, they could be doing repairs wrong on your vehicle and you could end up with more problems then you want to have down the road. I AM A MEMBER OF THE INTERNATIONAL AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIANS NETWORK(IATN). I am also part of a large network of sites that provide time saving tips done by Technicians all over the country. Another item most of the other advertisers here on Backpage dont have.
Below is MY EVERYDAY, ALLDAY RATES. Parts not included. I can't price my services any lower because I have to include my cost of fuel, trips to the Auto Parts Stores and Machine Shops and my expenses also in my quotes.
MY SERVICES COME WITH A ONE YEAR WARRANTY ON ALL PARTS AND LABOR.
I would prefer not to install used parts because used parts never last long especially if they are electrical related. Please understand that if I did not diagnose the vehicle and the repair is not completed properly, this is not my fault. I would suggest you hire me to inspect your vehicle because many of these shops are wrong or they missed something when they told you the problem with your vehicle. A second opinion is always a good idea.
MAKE YOUR SELF A LIST OF REPAIRS EVEN IF THEY INCLUDE PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE ON YOUR VEHICLE BECAUSE MAKING ONE TRIP OUT WILL REDUCE THE COSTS OF A SERVICE TRUCK FEE. YES I HAVE A SERVICE TRUCK THAT IM PUTTING ON THE ROAD AND IT TAKES PARTS TOO AS WELL AS MY FUEL COSTS. Its not a high fee. .

At the price I am charging for my rate, you won't find many guys doing the quality of repairs I do for this price here in Arizona.
Maybe you know some poor family woman who can't afford to fix her car at a local shop? Now she can, just send me her name, number and info about her car and I will call her.
Lastly, please be patient and give me time to reply. I post one ad a day in three catagories and I get alot of emails BECAUSE I AM THE MOST HONEST AND LOWEST PRICED PROFESSIONALLY LICENSED TECHNICIAN with over 28 years experience on Backpage. The quality of my services earns me customers, so I am not sitting at the computer all day. It is tough to find an honest technician like me and that keeps me busy. I AM WILLING TO NEGOTIATE FOR OTHER SERVICES AS WELL AS WELL AS TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT.
IF YOU HIRE A NON-LICENSED MECHANIC OFF BACKPAGE TO FIX YOUR VEHICLE AND THEY MAKE A MISTAKE AND RUIN YOUR MOTOR OR TRANSMISSION-YOU HAVE NO RECOURSE IN A COURT OF LAW BECAUSE THE JUDGE WILL TELL YOU THAT YOU TOOK A CHANCE ON HAVING A STRANGER FIX YOUR VEHICLE THAT DID NOT HAVE A LICENSE OR TRAINING, SO THEREFOR YOU'RE NOT PROTECTED UNDER THE LAW. PICK YOUR BATTLES CAREFULLY AND HIRE A LICENSED SERVICE. I MOST CERTAINLY MUST STATE-STAY AWAY FROM UNTRAINED SERVICES!!MY SUGGESTION TO THE UNTRAINED MECHANICS WHO READ THIS, GO BACK TO SCHOOL IF YOU WANT TO DO THIS. GRANTS ARE AVAILABLE AND THAN YOU CAN STOP TAKING WORK FROM THE SHOPS WHO DESERVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE THESE CUSTOMERS. OR GO APPLY FOR A LICENSE IF YOU THINK YOUR THAT GOOD AT REPAIRING CARS. TIME HAS COME TO PAY YOUR TAXES LIKE WE DO.
