How Our Mobile Auto Repair Service Works

At Cruise Control Convenient Car Care, we provide professional mobile auto repair with a clear, transparent process - so you always know what to expect before, during, and after your service visit.

1. Contact Us & Tell Us What You're Experiencing

You can reach us by phone or through our online booking form. Let us know what you're experiencing - such as a no-start condition, warning lights, drivability concerns, fluid leaks, brake issues, or routine maintenance needs. We know it's tempting to get a price right away, but vehicle issues can have multiple causes. To avoid guesswork, we inspect the vehicle first and then provide a clear, written estimate. Your description helps us schedule the appropriate service visit.

2. Schedule a Mobile Service Visit

Choose a time and location that works for you - home, work, or another safe location. Every appointment begins with a professional on-site inspection so we can accurately assess the issue and determine the appropriate next steps.
Service visit pricing:

• $140 minimum for general inspections, maintenance concerns, brake evaluations, and straightforward issues
• $175 starting rate for more complex concerns such as check engine lights, no-start conditions, and drivability problems, which require in-depth diagnostic testing and analysis

In cases where the issue is straightforward and immediately identifiable (for example, a dead battery or clearly worn brake components), the service visit cost is typically applied toward the repair.
When a concern requires diagnostic time, testing, and problem-solving to identify the root cause, the diagnostic fee covers that professional evaluation and is not automatically applied to the repair.

3. On-Site Inspection & Diagnostic Evaluation

When we arrive, we:

• Inspect the relevant systems
• Perform diagnostic testing when required
• Analyze data and vehicle behavior
• Document findings with photos when applicable
• Identify root causes - not just symptoms

This approach eliminates guesswork and helps prevent unnecessary part replacement and repeat repairs.

4. Clear, Written Estimate - Before Any Repairs

After the inspection or diagnostic process, you'll receive a clear, written estimate outlining:

• Verified repair needs
• Prioritized recommendations (most important to least)
• Optional services you can consider

We review everything with you and never proceed without your approval.
To ensure quality, reliability, and warranty coverage, we supply all parts used in our repairs. We don't install customer-supplied parts, as we can't verify quality, fitment, or warranty support on components we didn't source.

5. Approval & Repairs

Once you approve the work, we complete the agreed-upon repairs using quality parts and manufacturer-recommended procedures.
All qualifying repairs are backed by our 3-year / 36,000-mile warranty, similar to what you'd expect from a traditional repair shop.

6. Completion & Payment

After repairs are completed, we review the work performed and answer any remaining questions. Payment is simple and transparent, with multiple options accepted.

What to Expect From Our Process

• No guesswork or blind part replacement
• Professional diagnostic time when required
• Clear documentation and communication
• No pressure to approve repairs
• Mobile convenience without cutting corners

If you�re looking for a quick quote or the cheapest option, we may not be the right fit. If you want accurate diagnostics, clear recommendations, and quality repairs done at your location � we�d be happy to help.
