Marty's Mobile Mechanics

I've been waiting for Marty to finish a repair of my 2011 Lincoln MKX since November 16, 2025 and this review is being posted June 15, 2026, I waited because we thought he would finish the job and honestly because he was so combative and didn't want my car to be a victim of his anger. So many excuses but mostly he just doesn't answer any text, phone calls or emails. We are a eight hour drive from him. In January we drove down and let him know we were there. He hid inside his business/apartment as he is living at the shop, as we waited for two hours. Finally caught his girlfriend outside and he finally came out. Only to give us more excuses about when he would be done. We drove back over there in Feb and he hadn't made any true progress, only showed that he couldn't get a bolt removed. Also of note, the car was left unlocked with the hood up and there were leaves all over the engine compartment. He then said that he "gave us his word" that he would have the car done by the next day, Feb 8, 2026. We stayed the night went back the next morning and no progress had been made other than removing the troublesome bolt. So honestly I have no idea of the quality of his work as he hasn't finished the job. He is terrible at communications. Update 06/23/2026 Drove down and found my car had been abandoned in an adjacent lot near Marty's shop. The car was unlocked and the driver's window partly down and the sun roof open. The inside was ransacked and there is parts removed on the dash. The navigation SD card was not in the slot. The contents of the glove compartment, center console and a cubby near the gear shifter had been removed and tossed in the floor and front seats. Marty had care custody and control over my vehicle and he did not protect my property. We had the car towed to a new shop. This is a one owner car that has always been maintained at the dealer. The new mechanic took a look and found that the motor wouldn't turn. I asked him to see if the timing was out and he agreed to take the oil pain off and found in the oil pan: a socket, an extender and leaves in the oil take up. Marty put this car back together with all of that in the oil pan! June 23/24, 2026 Finally got a response from Marty but his only concern was the negative reviews placed by other people who knew of my situation. He said he would talk to me about my car once the other people removed their reviews. I told him that I don't have control over others who have decided to give him a review based on my experience with documentation and photos. Apparently back in Feb 2026 he had finished installing the new parts and took the car on a 40 minute road test. He sent a text message that he was about to test drive stating there was all kinds of quality control issues with the parts he installed, the parts he ordered himself. We didn't hear from him after that road test. March 16th Marty sent Henry my husband a voice memo via text: I have news and news and more news. I'm very eager to discuss the details with you, please give me a call at your earliest convivence. Henry called but Marty never answered. The next time we heard from him was after I sent a certified letter that he didn't accept and I emailed, texted and regular mailed the same letter so that he could read and respond. His only response was on On Thursday June 4th at 3:53 pm he replied: "I will call you today, we just had a baby 5/26" He never called. He is combative and very defensive when we ask questions as if it is our fault that he hasn't gotten the work done. He said he would finish the job and never did. Now I will have to get a new motor to fix the damage he has done to my car. I do not recommend Marty's Mobil Mechanics.

I called Marty around 7:00 he got out to where I was located and was nothing but kind and respectful. I was talking to him and expressed and interest in walking through the process of changing my battery and taking a look at my engine and he showed me what he was doing and taught me something I wanted to learn. Marty will definitely be my go to call from here on out was probably the most pleasant automotive experience I’ve ever had!!!

I was stuck doing some work on my jeep. I called and Marty was very professional and prompt with giving me a quote (which was very reasonable) and pulling up to my house himself to help me finish the work. Not to mention, it was Memorial Day weekend and this was like 8:30 on a Saturday night. If you need some work done and can’t make it to the shop, I would definitely recommend giving this guy a call and letting him come to you.

Marty seems friendly at first, but his communication needs work. He claims he’s working on the car when he hasn’t started, and promises quick callbacks that turn into hours of silence. ​He even made us wait nearly 4 hours for pickup because he forgot to leave the keys. I had to take this time off of work. Time is not free. He’ll probably excuse this by saying he wasn't at the shop, which is fine, but he didn't tell us in advance, which is the whole problem. ​He pushes deadlines repeatedly and only explains himself after the fact. He also tends to get confrontational when you raise a concern. I sympathize with the fact that he has a newborn and an elderly parent to take care of, and we would've worked with him if he gave us litterally ANY heads ups about delays/extenuating circumstances. Instead he only tells us after the fact why he hasnt done what he said he would do. Marty, if you are reading this, I highly recommend that you manage your workload better. You can't accept every car that needs repairs. Its okay to say that you are at capacity and cannot accept additional work at this time. Your desire to help everyone is causing the quality of your service to suffer. I feel like you mean well and thats why I'm saying this, but I still have to honest with my review.

AC went out at the best time of year for that. Dealer/shops.. RIDICULOUS prices..Called Marty's.. Mechanic Jay showed up on time,did the work and I am not gonna be sweaty anymore. Prices were way below stand alone shops,or the dealership.Jay was personable,friendly,and quick.. If ya need some work done,definitely call Marty first. You will not be disappointed.
