Top 4 Ways Fixxr is Better than Driving your Car to the Mechanic

Have you ever had a car problem? For example, an engine that’s not working well or a mind-boggling oil leak. It’s not easy finding a good mobile mechanic. You probably don’t want to go back to the mechanic every time something doesn’t go right with your car either. Fortunately, some mobile mechanics come to you and repair your vehicle where you want them to be fixed. In our opinion, there are several reasons why we think we’re better than traditional car repair shops.

We live in an instant-everything society where we expect things immediately and without delay. We’re used to being able to order food for pickup or delivery or buying clothes online and having them arrive at our door in days. When it comes to getting our cars serviced, we still rely on old-school methods like visiting a mechanic during business hours or paying exorbitant amounts for an emergency tow truck visit when something goes wrong with our vehicles.

Imagine having your car checked out by a mechanic in under 24 hours – without ever leaving your house!

The next generation of professional mobile mechanics offers these services and much more. Instead of worrying about your car breaking down unexpectedly, why not schedule regular maintenance with a Fixxr certified mobile mechanic?

2. Ongoing, relevant and trustworthy service

We know that it can be a pain to find the time and resources to locate a good mechanic in today’s busy society. With our online platform, you don’t have to spend your time ringing around from garage to garage. Instead, you can search for a local mechanic based on your needs, be that price, location or customer reviews.

Fixxr exists to simplify the customer-mechanic relationship for both parties. We serve our customers by creating a service booking platform for all car repairs, allowing their cars to be serviced by independent mechanics, who are experts in their field and dedicated to customer satisfaction. We build software that enables mechanics to showcase their work, price it fairly and securely, and connect with clients.

You must be confident in the mechanic’s quality of servicing your vehicle, the price’s fairness, or where in the process your car is.

Mechanics put in hard and honest work repairing vehicles. Looking to grow their careers and businesses, we manage the end-to-end customer relationship, helping customers find them and allowing them to focus on what they love.

You’ve got to trust your mechanic. The team at Fixxr are happy to perform repairs and maintenance on your vehicle, but at the same time, we are equally happy to give you honest information about what’s needed, what you can put off, and what should be avoided.

3. Saves time (no more sitting at a repair shop!)

When you need your car serviced, do you really want to wait around a repair shop all day? I know I don’t. But if sitting at a repair shop isn’t an option, it can be challenging to find a mechanic who will come to my home or office, especially on the weekend (lucky for you, Fixxr offers mobile services). Having your car serviced at the convenience of your home or office plus one-on-one attention for the cheaper than waiting at a repair shop is what Fixxr does best!

We are excited to provide you with convenient mobile repair and maintenance services. All Fixxr technicians come equipped with their tools and vehicles, which they drive directly to your location. Letting you focus on things that matter and not have to worry about missing another day of school or work.

4. Save money on car maintenance, no costly dealership fees!

Affordable Pricing: You might assume that mobile mechanics charge more for their service since they provide an added level of convenience. But that’s not the case. We offer competitive pricing that’s on par with local shops. We do not charge any convenience fee, nor do we pad the prices of our repairs. Many of our customers have reported saving money using our services.

Lack of maintenance: If left unattended for too long, lack of care can ultimately cause expensive mechanical issues. Luckily, a pro can usually tell if something has been neglected for too long without being fixed. Each car has a specific routine maintenance schedule in your vehicle’s owner’s manual. You don’t need to know what’s under the hood to keep up-to-date on your car maintenance.

Oil change and filter replacement are among the most critical preventative maintenance services a car needs. An engine oil change is essential to keeping your engine running smoothly. Neglecting it can cause further car problems down the road. Keep in mind that car maintenance is always cheaper than car repair. Each car has a specific maintenance schedule in your vehicle’s owner’s manual. You don’t need to know what’s under the hood to keep up-to-date on your car maintenance.

Preventive maintenance is essential to ensure that your car runs well. Your car needs regular servicing to keep it running smoothly. You should check your oil level regularly, change your air filters, and do other things to ensure your engine works properly.

Environmental factors such as temperature or humidity can also change how often you should get certain repairs. Contact us on +27(0)60 043 4632 if you want to know more about scheduled preventative maintenance.

Our online platform allows you to access all your car’s maintenance schedules, get a fair and transparent price, book an appointment, make payments, access service history, and get maintenance reminders. Another way Fixxr is better than traditional car repair shops.

We think that you’re going to love Fixxr. Our mobile mechanics can take the stress out of maintaining your vehicle and help prevent premature wear and tear. When you realise that you have a problem with your car, the last thing you want to do is leave your office. You’re busy and have meetings and projects to focus on, so why would you? The first time it happens, maybe you will prioritise fixing your car over everything else. But the more time goes on, the less likely that is to happen. You’ll start putting it off until it gets to be too much of a hassle. If there was an easier way to accomplish this, wouldn’t you take it? Well, now there is–with Fixxr.
