    9/4/25 driver Timothy G hit my vehicle in his work flatbed truck. The owner and dispatcher contacted me within the hour. This issue is still not resolved. After getting the estimate a few days later. Almost 2 months now. NK doesn't keep there word.

    We just had our truck towed from Oceanside to Escondido. We couldn't be happier. Kind. Professional. Trustworthy.

    Timothy Harwell safely dropping me at home 30 mins before AAA's provided ETA.

    I was just rescued by Tim Harwell, who showed up literally 20 minutes after calling AAA, let me sit in his truck to wait for him to get my car on his truck since it's chilly out, got me home safe, and was a delight to speak with. Tim communicated with me prior to his arrival, then refused a digital tip since I was low on cash. I am really grateful for his prompt, professional and courteous service. I'm the first to give tow companies a bad rap from personal experiences, but Tim was my Easter Sunday hero. Thank you, Timothy!

    Battery needed a jump and called AAA. NK Towing came out and did a terrific job. Marcus was an exceptionally nice young man.

    Oceanside Towing - Don't use this company. The driver Michael is very rude and difficult to work with.

    We had the pleasure of dealing with Michael and when I say pleasure, I mean that in the utmost…read moresarcasm I can muster. Let's just say I've seen more personality from a brick wall and the brick wall would be less rude. It all started when we had a car park in our driveway illegally. We called to have the car towed and when Michael got there, the fun started. He started the conversation out by not even acknowledging my greeting and handed me a paper to fill out and said where to fill. Once that was taken care of, he asked for my ID, which was fine, but he then started having a fit when he was verifying my info on the paper. He's issue was with my phone number having an LA area code. He kept going over that he wouldn't tow the car if the info wasn't correct and that the number couldn't be mine because it's from LA. I tried to explain that the number was a good number to reach me and I even gave a work number that's an OC number. He then said that he was done and wouldn't tow the car. Long story short, he left and we worked with a company called S&K Towing. Far better experience to say the least.

When the guy for the towing arrived he was very rude and would not pick up the car and just got in his truck and left , saying it was not their policy to pick up cars without the owner being present. If it was OK with AAA and had been arranged then why would they accept the tow and waste my time and theirs as well?? They had to pay that driver and the gas in their tow truck to get nothing in return!! Go figure. All they needed to do was communicate with people and this would have worked out for all parties. In all, why accept the tow if your not going to follow the rules set by AAA.

    I hired Kevin at Carlsbad Mobile Mechanic to diagnose an issue with my vehicle, at which point he…read moreadvised and recommended a radiator replacement. Before approving the work, I specifically asked in writing whether the parts being used were Nissan OEM or aftermarket. I received a direct response stating: "These are OEM parts." Based on that written confirmation, I agreed to move forward with the repair and payment. After the work was completed, I began experiencing serious issues with my vehicle, including stalling to the point where it was no longer safely drivable. Due to these failures, I had to take my vehicle to Nissan for further inspection. During that inspection, it became clear that the radiator installed was not OEM. Nissan also confirmed that OEM radiators would not present the way this one did, including the absence of proper identification. In addition, the coolant/transmission lines had been modified using generic hoses and clamps--something that would not be necessary with an OEM radiator, which is designed to use factory quick-connect fittings. These findings directly contradict what was promised to me in writing prior to the repair. As a direct result of the improper parts and installation, my vehicle sustained significant damage totaling over $15,000 and became unreliable and unsafe to drive, requiring additional time, expense, and inconvenience to address. When I attempted to resolve the situation, I requested receipts and documentation showing where the parts were purchased. These were not provided. In California, automotive repair providers are required to provide documentation and itemization of parts upon request, including itemized invoices and parts information, yet Kevin failed to do so. Instead, I was told that I was a "nightmare" customer and that I was "giving him a headache." He also attempted to shift blame by suggesting the damage must have been caused by a collision or another shop, despite the timeline and circumstances clearly tied to his work. Since then, my attempts to follow up have been ignored. At no point was I informed of any substitution, nor was I given the opportunity to approve the use of non-OEM parts. The use of OEM components was a key factor in my decision to proceed. When a mechanic diagnoses a repair, recommends replacement, and explicitly confirms OEM parts in writing, there is a clear expectation that those terms will be honored. That did not happen here. I strongly recommend that anyone considering working with Kevin at Carlsbad Mobile Mechanic verify all parts being installed, request documentation, and thoroughly inspect the work before accepting completion.

If I would've taken it to a shop it would have been sitting there all day. FYI I have a hybrid and not every one can work on this type of car. Definitely using again.

I got myself to the shoulder and my hands couldn't stop shaking from the adrenaline and then I started worrying about getting my tire handled. As I started to call my husband (since I've never had to use our AAA) a truck pulled up behind me and an ANGEL stepped out to ask if I'd like help changing the tire. He'd been driving the opposite direction and noticed me on the shoulder!!! He came back to help me out of the kindness in his heart. Sam was SOOOO absolutely amazing and helped me put air in my spare (that I'd never used and didn't even know if it would hold air), had all the compressors, impact guns, and hydraulic jack ...it took him FIVE MINUTES to get my spare on!! I am SO grateful and Sam is just awesome!! Also, Sam we didn't have much time to chat on the shoulder of the highway but I do need some other things repaired on that same SUV so if it's ok I'd love if I can call you to set something up. You, sir, are my HERO & I can't thank you enough!!

    My son's car's air-conditioning went out unexpectedly Sunday evening heading home to San Diego …read more Through Yelp, sent a message out to few repair shops in the area as we have never had a car serviced in San Diego before and Sam was the first to respond. I was skeptical as he had no reviews to date, but went with him anyway. He communicated clearly with me explaining what may be the issue, and so we arranged for him to come to my son's house to check things out. He came as arranged and was ready to recharge the system. However, upon initial inspection, he determined that the compressor needed to be replaced. With that said, he gave me a quote said he could do it today and so he did. It was definitely more than I wanted to pay for my son's car, but the price was very reasonable and on par with what it should cost and the best part is that I didn't have to take it anywhere. Overall impression is that Sam is knowledgeable, professional and affordable. Sam was a pleasure to work with. Only downside is that you can't pay with a cc as only Zelle, Venmo are accepted. Regardless, he showed me the parts before and after replacement, and we made sure it was all running great. Mobile service is certainly convenient as he will come to you. I would recommend using B&R Mobile Auto Repair. As long as the work he did stands the test of time, we will be sure to call on him in the future.
