Awesome experience with Pat! Answered my text quickly, promptly came out the next morning. Thoroughly reviewed my concerns and had everything done quickly. Will recommend Pat to anyone looking for auto care. Super pleased with everything! Thanks Pat and team!
** IF NEGATIVE STARS WERE AN OPTION **. I would NEVER recommend this guy to anyone. He was supposed to show up the next day to replace leaky power steering lines, but never showed. Called and texted him several times to confirm appointment. Ghosted my calls and text messages for days. Needless to say I took my vehicle elsewhere to get the work done that he was supposed to do. This is piss poor for someone who claims to be running a business. I hope the money I paid for the service fee goes a long way, because with practices like this karma will be back real soon.
Well if I could give not stars I would. But I guess I got to thank him.
Thank you PaT. For not doing the job you said you would do the next day. NO CALL NO SHOW NO CALL. bs Thanks Pat for not returning my calls. Thanks Pat for retuning my texts . IF YA DONT WANT TO DO THE JOB. THEN HAVE ENOUGHT BALLS TO CALL AN TELL ME YOU DONT WANT TO DO THE JOB.
saved me about a grand in repairs.
If negative stars were possible, I’d be filing paperwork to take this man’s rating so far below zero it’d need its own underground parking garage. My sister booked him the day before — clear, simple, kindergarten-level instructions: show up between 9 and 10 a.m. That’s it. But somehow this man treated the appointment like it was an optional side quest he never intended to complete.
9 a.m. comes. No call.
10 a.m. comes. No text.
The man vanished like responsibility put out a restraining order on him.
Hours later — 5 p.m., mind you — he emerges from the void and tries to reschedule for 6–7 p.m., as if he didn’t already waste half her day. And here’s the part that really belongs in the Guinness Book of World Records: he no-shows again. No call. No apology. No shame. Just unbothered, unprofessional ghosting, twice in one day, from a grown man who allegedly runs a “business.”
At this point, calling him unreliable is an insult to the unreliable. Solar eclipses show up more consistently than he does. If commitment had a wanted poster, his face would be on it. I’ve seen toddlers with more follow-through. Honestly, I wouldn’t trust this man to be in charge of keeping a balloon from floating away.
Save yourself the headache. Save yourself the time. Save yourself from whatever this… performance was supposed to be. Because one thing is guaranteed: the only thing he delivers is disappointment.
RVA Mobile Auto Repair deserves five stars and then some! The owner, Pat, came through for me in a real time of need, and I couldn’t be more grateful. He was incredibly professional, time-efficient, pleasant, and very cost-effective — which means so much in today’s economy.
He did an amazing job with my son’s vehicle, and his quality of work truly speaks for itself. Thank you so much, Pat!
If you ever find yourself needing any repairs — big or small — do yourself a favor and give him a call. He’s my mechanic from here on out!
I highly recommend RVA Mobile Auto Repair! They are very professional and efficient. I needed my brake pads and rotors replaced, so I gave them a call and they came out within a couple hours. They had my brakes and rotors installed in about 30 minutes and also charged a reasonable price, especially considering the convenience. I will definitely contact them for any repair needs going forward!
The communication was very important to me, because I was at work and had to have someone meet them. They gave me a call ahead and was prompt. I was very appreciative. I will definitely use their services again.
I contacted RVA Mobile Auto Repair to take a look at a few issues with my son's car. Pat came out promptly today and handled the issues with my son's brakes and gave an oil change as well. He thoroughly explained what needed to be done and gave us an estimate. Within just an hour, my son's vehicle was back on the road. I appreciated Pat's expertise and he did not overcharge us. We will definitely use his services again.
RVA Mobile Auto Repair is the best. Pat and Heavy were able to work with me on my schedule, had my truck up and running in no time for a very reasonable cost. Don’t hesitate to call them they are the best!
RVA Mobile Auto Repair are a phenomenal duo! They literally saved my family and I on our return trip home from vacation.
So to give a little context. As we arrived at our hotel in Richmond, VA, my fiancée noticed that our driver side breaks smelled of burning and the padding was completely gone, it was metal on metal at that point. This was on a Friday evening around 7:30pm. We were planning on driving back home to Philadelphia the next morning. In a panic I looked up auto repair shops and such in the area that I could take the car to in the morning for brake replacements. However, realistically trying to get a brake appointment on a Saturday morning last minute would have almost been impossible. I stumbled upon RVA Mobile via a web search, called that night and the mechanic (Pat) was very helpful and scheduled an appointment to change our car breaks bright and early Saturday. Low and behold Pat and his partner Heavy came to our hotel parking lot in a timidly fashion, assessed the the car and got right to work! It took them about an hour and half they had our car swapped with new front breaks and rotors. We were out by check out and on the road!
I highly suggest RVA mobile especially in emergency situations, it’s so convenient that they will come to you with the parts needed to get your vehicle up and running and with reasonable prices!
Had an issue with my cooling system and RVA Mobile Auto Repair diagnosed it and repaired it right in my driveway. Saved me time and money and got it done in time for me to get to work that night.
The owner Pat does great work for an affordable price. If you want a knowledgeable mechanic that can come to you and will treat you fairly, look no further. This business has saved me hundreds of dollars throughout the years.
So grateful for the amazing service provided! They got our car fixed fast, explained everything clearly, and charged a fair price. We’ll be loyal customers from here on out. Job well done!
Awesome business! I had a fender that needed to be fixed on my car and I was referred to this company by my sister. The service was great and the price was really affordable and way less than any body shop would have charged for sure. I have no need to ever take my car to the shop for repairs again. Thank you RVA Mobile Auto Repair!
Best mechanic in richmond Virginia without a doubt! Saved me plenty of time, and hundreds of bucks on my alternator replacement! How can a service be more convenient than this? I will highly recommend this company to everyone I know!
They did an excellent job replacing my belts, brakes, oil pan, spark plugs, air filter, and battery over the years. They keep my car maintenance up to speed. I will continue to call them when needed!
