Nacho Mobile Auto Repair

During Christmas 2015, I drove my 2014 Toyota Sienna van from San Jose, California to Denver, Colorado (1300 miles). On the way back to California, I passed by Las Vegas NV, and my engine temperature raised high, and engine red warning light was on. I realized I have over heated the engine. Since I believe the AAA truck driver is very knowledgeable about car and engine issue, I trusted his knowledge so I asked him (NOT AAA) to recommend a good mechanic. He recommended Nacho Mobile Auto Repair. Nacho (owner) told me that the engine block was cracked and was not fixable, he had to replace my engine with another used engine. It was a big job, so I went back to San Jose and waited for a few weeks. During that few weeks, Nacho kept me posted with my van’s progress. Then, I picked up my Sienna, and drove back to San Jose. He even helped me and smog checked the van to make sure it pass smog test. I could feel that the engine that Nacho installed was good, and smooth. The power was as good as before, and transmission was smooth. But, since I want to make sure that the engine was indeed installed well, I had another very trusted and knowledgeable mechanic at Leader Auto Repair since 1995 in Santa Clara CA to double check the engine. Leader mechanic told me that Nacho did a very good job putting the engine together, and my van should be fine for a long time. So, Nacho Mobile Auto Repair did a good job installing my engine, and I will definitely recommend this place to anyone with engine or car issues. Nacho is honest and he did not take advantage of my situation. The price is fair and reasonable even my mechanic at Leader Auto Repair would have charged about the same.

I recently traveled to Las Vegas from So Cal with my husband and 3 kids. My car began to overheat on the way in. I started to panic and came to Unilocal to find a mechanic who, not only, was open on Saturdays but who would not take advantage of my desperate situation. I called Nacho at 5:30 on friday and he was very reassuring. His shop is open 8 – 5 on Saturdays. Once we checked in to our hotel, I googled directions and found out he was 5 minutes from our hotel. We got the car there before 8 and he was ready to accept it even though his shop opened at 8 am. He kept in contact and notified us before he did any work was done. We had our radiator, thermostat and water pump replaced and were back in it by 4pm. We were willing to pay anything because we had no other option to get home and he was honest and did not take advantage in any way. His prices were fair and reasonable and I highly recommend him to any out-​of-​towners who are in a desperate situation. Thank you Nacho for your help!

The alternator on my 2004 Lexus RX 330 went out Friday night. I was referred to Nacho Saturday morning and he had it fixed by that afternoon. Nacho did good work, really reasonable price and did it for what he quoted. He’ll give you a free tow and ride home, if you need it. He didn’t try to upsell me or bs me on anything else. I’m bringing my 1999 Ford Expedition for a new transmission next, I’ll let you know how that goes but this has been a really good experience.

My Lexus shut down just after getting off the freeway from So Cal. AAA driver recommended this place, where I could probably have it repaired the next day, Friday. Nachos diagnosed a leaking water pump, and got it done by 2:00 on Friday at a very reasonable price. Very happy!

Very happy I brought my 5.3 V8 Chevy suburban to him while in Vegas to have my radiator replaced. It was great price, service and timely repair took the time he quoted … He warranties all parts and labor, Highly recommend Nacho to everyone

DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLES HERE!!! the service was good at first when I was just taking my 2002 Tahoe there… but then my mom took her 350Z there after it had been driven over a center median… all he basically did was put tape on it! he replaced the oil pan… the service engine light came on right after he fixed it. took it to another mechanic and that mechanic said there’s no way that he couldn’t see the other damage when he took off the oil pan and if we would have waited any longer we would have needed a whole new engine! dishonest mechanic! so of course I did not take my Tahoe back to him. and come to find out the «new transmission» costing $ 2,900 that he put in my truck 6 months prior was just an old one that had been spray painted! again… DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLES HERE!!!

Thank you Nacho and the team for repairing my truck with excellent service and care. I have gone to nacho twice already for my 1995 Tacoma truck repairs he has been honest to me and straight up with all my questions and concerns with my truck. Thank you also to Christian Who came quickly to come tow my truck to. I work in the service industry here in Vegas for over 23 years now and they delivered excellent customer service and quick response I couldn’t ask for anything more thanx again !

This auto repair shop is a hidden gem! The location isn’t ideal but the services provided are superb. Ignacio (Nacho the owner) is very humble and takes pride on how he treats his customer. He goes above and beyond and checks for anything else that might need your attention while servicing your vehicle. He’ll explain to you what’s urgent and what can wait, along with other options that you might be interested in. My boyfriend has used him for 3 vehicles over the years. Anyone looking for an honest mechanic should check him out.

Outstanding service is what keeps our family coming back. My husbands family has been coming to nacho for over 10 years. I’ve been coming to him for over 4 about my car so I can speak for personal experience. It’s about time I’ve written him a review so for that I apologize.
The owners name is really Ignacio but everyone calls him nacho and that’s why his business is named so. He is very technical and knows his mechanics. I can always call him and ask him questions as he will answer them or let me know I need to bring the car in. He’s usually busy so I recommend getting there early. He’s very friendly and answers any concerns. I have called him and gotten second opinions but he had always been the cheapest. It takes him usually about two to three hours todos my car but he gives me a heads up so i can get picked up and got to lunch while I wait.
Fixing my breaks, replacing my wires, pipes and flushin my injectors cost me 250. Another place wanted 350. Come here for excellent service with someone you can trust.
There’s been times he’s driven to our house and fixed our cars, so it’s been easy to have our cars fixed without being towed to him.
FYI, He’s closed on Sundays.

My car was overheating and I didn’t know why. I took it to my usual mechanic and he told me to just change the cap. I bought a new radiator cap and my car STILL over heated. Ugh. So then, a family member recommended me to Nacho’s.
I went there today and he told me to pop the hood. He asked me a question, «Is the A/​C on?» I said, «Yes sir, and that’s the only time it overheats.» He quickly diagnosed it by looking at the fan. lol Nacho said my fan wasn’t working therefor it wasn’t supplying the radiator with its much needed air. He ordered the part. I came back an hour later once he received it and he installed the new fan within 25minutes. By the way, Nacho also spotted other malfunctions that my car has been needing attention but my usual mechanic never advised me on. Bye old mechanic. Hello new mechanic. :)
I drove the whole day through this hot las vegas weather on my 1999 acura with the a/​c full blast and NO MORE overheating!!! so happy.
Fast service, Reliable diagnosis, and will come back and refer friends. Thanks Nacho!

I would not recommend anyone going to Nachos unless it is for something very simple like putting in a new battery. The mechanics for the most part do not speak English. I have no issue with that except they are apparently shade tree mechanics. My car was towed there by the Auto Club who said even though he wasn’t on the AAA approved list, he was good. This must have been his cousin ! He repaired a transmission seal on my car which became a disaster. Once I made it home on limp mode since he ruined a speed sensor in my car, the mechanic took photos of the lines they had cut in half and then re did with blue masking tape. I still have the photos. Don’t go there for major work. It will be done by guys who are not true mechanics and do not even know that you do not cut wires. It was sloppy work and my transmission never worked right again until hundreds of dollars more were spent to repair the damage done. I was taken advantage of since I was a tourist.

Nacho’s shop is thee best. My friend referred me. I had smog problems and had spent nearly $ 400 messing around with another Mechanic. Nacho helped me out at a very reasonable price and he actually FIXED the problem! I will go here from now on

Needed a new battery nacho took care of it, Humberto installed it. All done!
