I asked Tom to take a look at my vehicle to see if he could figure out why my truck suddenly wouldn't start. He was thorough, professional, and honest in his assessment. The conclusion was a bad fuel pump, which is not what I wanted to hear, but that's not Tom's fault. I was very satisfied with Tom's work and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an auto mechanic.

Tom did a thorough job and did not charge me for a 2nd wheel bearing that was not yet needed replacing. It just took longer than he initially projected.

Wow !!!! This was so easy........I was looking at scheduling a tow, scheduling an appointment to have my car looked at and then worked on, scheduling a ride home/and back...all it took was one click and I had an appointment for 12 hours later AT MY HOUSE !! Everything was fixed and done within 45 minutes !!! Tom is a great guy.....explained everything to me every step of the way.....even checked things that had nothing to do with my battery. What a relief!!!!!! Would recommend yourmechanic.com ( and specifically Tom Palarz) to ANYONE !!!!!! Thanks Tom......you made my day !!!!!!! Sharon Osland
