What clients say about Excellence Mobile Mechanic in Huntsville (AL)

I had a great experience with this mobile mechanic and highly recommend him. I bought a used car and ran into several issues right away — check engine light, brake concerns, and a lot of anxiety about what could be wrong. He came out quickly, diagnosed everything thoroughly, and explained things in a way that made me feel comfortable and informed.
He found the real problem (a failed ignition coil), corrected a brake booster hose issue, and made sure the car was safe to drive again. The car now runs smooth, quiet, and the brakes feel perfect. The price was very fair for the work and the peace of mind he gave me.
If you need an honest, knowledgeable, and reliable mechanic who comes to you, I absolutely recommend him!Feb 16, 2026 -
Chris was very easy to get ahold of, I called him yesterday evening and we talked about what services I was needing done. He’s very clear and transparent about what does/doesn’t truly need to be replaced. He’s extremely knowledgeable about the cars and their functions and I learned a lot just from asking him some questions. He was able to come out the next morning to swap out the spark plugs and test my ignition coils. Only one ignition coil needed to be replaced which a different place I was quoted, they said they were all bad and needed to be replaced so Chris saved me hundreds of dollars to replace things that weren’t necessary. He noticed there was a leak from my radiator, he was hoping it was as easy as just getting better sealing clamp but turned out it was a hairline crack in the radiator— Chris was able to get the new radiator priced, picked up and installed that afternoon! His pricing was reasonable and he did a great job, my car no longer threw the engine misfire codes it did before and drives smooth now! Highly recommend :)

I traveled 4.5 hours from Georgia to purchase a new car in Madison, AL at Woody Anderson Ford. I found this mechanic on Google to do a pre purchase inspection and I could not recommend him enough! He let me know the reputation of the dealership, thoroughly looked over the quality of the car and was flexible with time. I’m grateful that I found him! Peace of mind when buying a car is priceless!

Do not call this guy unless you want to be scammed. I called this guy after another mechanic was trying to charge me in insane price to replace spark plugs. He came out fast did a diagnostic test on my vehicle and it read it was misfiring on the 5th cylinder. So we agreed for him to replace the spark plug and ignition coil on the 5th cylinder. I paid him $430 to do it. Right away I took it on a test drive and it was still misfiring. I didn’t drive it until I was able to afford to take it to get looked at again because I had a bad feeling. Yesterday I take it into a shop and it was still misfiring on the 5th cylinder they replaced the spark plug and ignition coil he supposedly changed and thanks to them my car is now running well. the spark plug and ignition coil on the 5th cylinder that this guy apparently changed is from the original manufacturer with there serial numbers clearly he did not do the work he was paid to do. This man took over $400 from me to replace a spark plug and ignition coil on the 5th cylinder that he never replaced. Which like for a lot of people is a lot of money especially right before the holidays. He confirmed that he replaced them when I contact him about doing the other spark plugs but once I told him what happened he tried to back track and now hasn’t responded. Do not use this guy unless you want to be taken advantage of and ripped off. I needed to get my vehicle running so I could get my special needs daughter to and from her appointments which he was aware of even talked about his special needs sister her passed. I contacted him about this and he pretty much said he would get back to me when he wasn’t driving that was over 24hrs ago. You would think after something like this happening if it was some shorta mistake he would want to get it straightened out right away. This guy has zero morals and integrity and I can’t express it enough do not hire this man. I will see you in small claims court after pressing criminal charges what you did is fraud and deception to take payment for a job you didn’t complete and posting in every site possible to make everyone aware of what you did. You will not get away with this.
Looking forward to seeing how your going to try to twist this and take zero responsibility just like what was done on the other negative reviews.Dec 02, 2025 -
Came quick and fixed the issue in a timely manner he was professional and definitely would recommend to anyone if you need a mechanic this is ur guy

I had to replace my alternator belt, Chris did an amazing job!! I strong recommend his service! Thank You!!!

10.17.25- Spoke with Chris over the phone as well as sending him a text, per his request. It's been a week, and I haven't received a response. I've already had someone else come out and fix our issue within that time frame. My rating is based solely on communication since no work was done on my vehicle.

We had a check engine light come on and a violently vibrating engine, Chris got out to check it in a reasonable amount of time.
He worked quickly and efficiently and was honest about what he was and wasn't able to do.
Bonus that my car didn't have to be towed. He came out on a Sunday and cost was reasonable and fair for the work that was done.
10/10 experienceOct 12, 2025 -
Can't speak to the quality of work performed, but even with extensive communication it seemed impossible to get anything scheduled. The hassle of scheduling a time and day alone makes me not want to recommend these services. If they were to simply say they were too busy or the job wasn't worth their time I could work with that. But the communication was just poor.

I called Chris about putting in an alternator on my daughter’s car. He asked me to text him the year, make, and model of the vehicle. I did as soon as we hung up the phone. He read my message and never replied. If you don’t want to work just say that. Don’t waste peoples time with the bs.

What has happened in the world today with respect and customer service? People can't even return a call/text these days. What kind of service can you expect if they can't do a simple courtesy.

I called EVERYWHERE- every Firestone location and they all were so surprised I was asking for someone to diagnose why my check engine light was on. Some people said it would take days to get a “technician to look at it”. I was super disappointed and felt hopeless. God willing I found John and he came out RIGHT AWAY and helped us fix our check engine light issue and was so amazing. Wonderful, amazing customer service that you don’t see very often. I will continue to use him anytime we have vehicle issues!! Thank you John!!!

Chris came over immediately, diagnosed what was wrong with my car and made the repairs. Very reasonable with the pricing. He explained what was wrong with my car in terms I could understand. I highly recommend him if you want someone to repair your car.

Chris just saved me a lot of heartache by inspecting a vehicle I was going to buy. Was able to spot that it had been flooded previously, among other things. Quick turn around time, reasonable price, professional, and knowledgeable. Highly recommended. Thanks again Chris.

Chris (owner)and John were the skilled mechanics who worked on my 2005 Tiffin. When the starter went out, they quickly diagnosed the issue and repaired it with minimal complications. The only delay was waiting for the part to be ordered and shipped, otherwise, the job would have been completed in just a few hours. Despite challenging weather conditions, including cold and rain, Chris and John demonstrated exceptional dedication by removing and reinstalling the part efficiently. Their professionalism and commitment are greatly appreciated.
Yes, I would use their services again.
Chris and John thank you for being honest and fair.Jan 27, 2025 -
Extremely knowledgeable and efficient mechanic. Chris had my alternator switched out and replaced in just 2 hours and with a fair price. I definitely recommend him to anybody looking for work done on there vehicle. 5 stars and I wish I could put 10

Chris went above and beyond to help us out! We got stranded on Thanksgiving and he came out to aid us in fixing our truck. He was professional, kind and extremely courteous. 10/10 would recommend him to anyone! Very fair price too

If you're looking for someone truly exceptional, look no further! There aren’t many people out there like him—he’s a gem. Recently, he helped me out and provided some solid advice that made a real difference. What stands out the most is how much he genuinely cares about his customers, going above and beyond to help even after normal business hours. His work is honest and reliable, and I wish him nothing but the best. Seriously, if you need assistance, give him a call. Skip the mechanic shop and see for yourself! Legit!

Chris was such a life saver today!! A shop tried to charge for $1,300 for a new battery, some leaks, and an oil change. He saved me so much time and money. It ended up being my starter which is what I initially assumed the problem was from the get until the shop told me otherwise. I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off until I called him. He kept in contact with me the entire time and was able to order the part and fix the problem all within the same day!! Thanks so much Chris! God bless you for the amazing work and energy you’re putting into the universe!

Was stranded out of state after a dinner engagement at 6:30 pm. in Huntsville, Al. Chris came and assessed my car troubles and replaced my alternator and battery on site and had me back on the road in just a few hours. He is literally a mechanical surgeon and a genius at his craft. I highly recommend him and wish 10 stars was an option. He even called to follow up the next day to make sure I made it home safely and to check in. Thank You Chris, you were a lifesaver!

Chris was a lifesaver. When my vehicles starter decided to die on a Sunday in a Target Parking lot, he was there to fix it quick. Overall, he did a great job at diagnosing the problem, sourcing a part, and getting it fixed right there in there parking lot! If you are needing a competent and hardworking mechanic to get you out of a jam then look no further, Chris will do you right.

Great mechanic . Helped me with changing my alternator in the middle of the night when i got stranded . Very knowledgeable friendly and fair prices . Highly recommend
Aug 03, 2024 -
SUPER knowledgeable! I’m from out of town and my alternator went bad. From the time I called him to the time he was at my car ready to work was less then 45 min. He called and updated me on everything he was doing as far as buying the part, pricing and eta. He was honest and stayed true to his pricing. He gave me a quote at the beginning and stuck to it exactly! Literally cut my cost in half compared to a big corporate mechanic. Highly recommend!

Chris was amazing-- this was one of the most positive experiences I've had with a mechanic, ever. He listens to you, addresses the problem, and does a thorough job to make sure everything is taken care of. I called him out to help replace a battery when one of the terminals broke as I was exchanging the batteries myself, and he went the extra mile to check it with the voltameter after installing it and discovered that my alternator had been the thing draining my battery. Thanks to him, I got the alternator replaced that same day, too, and avoided a potential catastrophe (at the very least, I avoided instantly draining my new battery).

My car wouldn’t start for work this morning and I didn’t know what to do. It wasn’t a dead battery or anything, it was something the average person couldn’t diagnose. My wife looked up mobile mechanics and found Chris and sent it to me. I called him and he was with a client but immediately sent me a text saying he would call me back and did promptly. He was at my house within the hour on short notice. Realized it was the fuel pump less than 10 minutes upon arrival. He called the supply house and checked pricing. He went and picked up the part because I had no way to get it myself and came back and installed it like he does it 100 times a day. Tested everything and made sure it would start up and that there were no other issues. He also pointed out to me that I needed to get some new tires and took the time to show me how to read the manufactures date. He went out of his way to teach me what he could while he was here. His pricing was less than half of what someone else would have charged. Not only is he a great mechanic he is a genuinely good man and cares about your situation and understands the impact something like this has on someone. I can tell he enjoys doing his job not only for the monetary aspect, but more so for the ability to help others. As long as I am in the area and Chris is still doing his thing he will be the only one I car to work on my vehicle. 10 for 10 would recommend.

Chris is one of a kind!! My alternator went out on me Monday morning. I searched around and no one could assist me ASAP! I found Chris via Google and read nothing but good reviews on him so I gave him a call. He came and tested it out and told me what I needed to do. It was raining on Monday so he couldn’t get to me until Tuesday. That was fine!
I ordered my alternator online. My car wasn’t able to be driven so Chris went to pick it up for me! He then came over and fixed my alternator quickly! Everything is great and in tiptop condition! Im new to the area so this was a wonderful experience! I 10 out of 10 RECOMMEND!!
Thanks Chris! You have a customer in me for life!!Aug 08, 2023 -
We are so grateful for Chris at Excellence Mobile repair. We needed a wheel bearing replaced on our travel trailer when we were headed home from a camping trip. Chris was thorough and knowledgeable. He was able to get the necessary parts for us and get to us within an hour. He quickly got the bearing changed and we were back on the road. The cost was reasonable as well. Highly recommend.

Chris came through for us at the last minute and we were so thankful! He did an excellent job of installing my husband’s alternator and finished it quickly. I highly recommend him as he is very professional, friendly and honest. As someone who highly values customer service and integrity, I am happy that we chose him as our mechanic and will be doing business with him from now on.

This is the best service I've ever received from a mechanic! I broke all 4 of my door handles due to the freezing weather and thought I wouldn't be able to make it to work by 4pm on Christmas Eve. I called Chris around 9am and by noon he had driven all over town to find parts and replaced and fixed all my door handles! NOBODY was available to help me on a Saturday, especially being Christmas Eve, but Chris went above and beyond! I had one door handle ordered through Advance Auto but it hadn't arrived by the time they quoted me, so Chris made a few calls and drove around Huntsville until he found 4 new handles for me! He could've charged for all 4 plus his time but he was able to fix one without replacing it. He even gave me a few free tips for future reference. Overall, the price he charged was VERY reasonable considering the circumstances. I'm so impressed and thankful he was willing to help me out like he did! I will be calling him if I ever have another issue with my vehicle. He outdid Santa this year! I'd give 10 stars if I could! Thanks Chris!

I highly, highly recommend using Chris, my truck has been down for three days- I have replaced $1000 worth of parts to figure out why my truck wasn’t getting any spark after running just fine before I had my master cylinder changed. Within 20 minutes- Chris was able to find the problem and it was my distributor cap wire harness plug had been broke some how. He diagnosed the issue, he gave me some recommendations, and he was efficient and affordable- and was able to come to me within a hour of service call. Will 10/10 use Chris again for any of my mechanic, on call needs.
Thank you again Chris for helping me find the issue after 2 days of searching for loose wires, replacing my battery, my coil, coil wire, sparks, ignition module, master cylinder, spark plug wires, and having two other people who have a background in cars searching for the problem, obviously we looked closer to the master cylinder because that’s what was replaced, but Chris was more thorough and found the culprit. Thanks to Chris, I have my specialty part ordered and have soldered my current wires until my new part shows up- and because of his diagnosis, thoroughness, rapid response time, I am on the road again.Jul 02, 2022
