Valdez Mechanix in
Montpelier (ID)

I am so grateful for Nestor and don't know what we would have done without him! My friend and I were driving a Miata from Colorado to Montana, and broke down right around the border of Wyoming and Idaho. Fortunately, Valdez Mechanix was not too far away and answered our call right away (though we broke down after 6 pm). Nestor immediately made us feel like it was going to be okay. He helped us get in touch with a towing company, and even offered to come look at the car and see if he could fix it there on the side of the road. He helped us get to somewhere safe and was extremely responsive and understanding as we called and texted back and forth. The radiator blew out, and the next day, Nestor went to a scrap yard to look at an old Miata there, then ended up driving two hours round trip to pick up a new radiator for us. We broke down on Thursday night around 6 pm, and he had the car fixed and ready on Friday night around 9 pm, after working his day job. He picked us up from Montpelier and brought us to the car, then was very patient as we started up the car and made sure everything was running smoothly. He even texted to check in the following day on how everything was going. Nestor is clearly an extremely hard worker and knows what he is doing. If you need someone to work unconventional hours on your car, he's your guy. Again, I'm not sure what we would have done if he weren't in the area where we broke down. We likely would have been stuck in Idaho for many more days. The price he charged us was also, unexpectedly, very reasonable. Thank you, Nestor! 🙏🏼

I personally didn't see him do the work but the car is back on the road an running. I appreciate it for going out New Years Eve on such sort notice an helping out my mom with her vehicle in a timely manner. I recommend your mechanic services any day of the week. Keep fixing them one car at a time. 🙏🏼 Thanks again!👍🏼

It wouldn’t let me post without putting a star, but this guy doesn’t even deserve a star. He charged my mom and step dad $600 to replace shocks and struts. The guy was only here for 45mins and changed one strut and shock for a junkyard strut and shock and pocketed the rest of the money. The boots were completely gone on the struts, dry rotted just terrible looking. The only reason we found out was we took it to a new mechanic, Justin at R&J mechanics and tow. When he got the tires off and seen the shocks and struts his first words were these aren’t new. Anyone who knows cars knows that a shock and strut is a good hour for one and this guy supposedly did two in 45 mins?? Wouldn’t trust this guy to change a tire. Save your money and time and take it to Justin at R&J mechanics and tow, guy was super helpful and straightforward with everything just a trustworthy individual.
