Knocking, overheating or burning oil? We diagnose engine problems on-site, then complete major repairs at our full-service shop at 4235 St Stephens Rd — with honest advice about what's worth fixing.
Engine work is where honesty matters most, because the wrong decision costs thousands. A head gasket on a well-maintained car worth $12,000? Almost always worth fixing. The same repair on a $2,500 car with 220,000 miles and a tired transmission? Probably not — and we'll tell you that to your face, even though it costs us the job. Our assessments include the car's actual market value, its overall condition, and what else is likely to fail soon. You decide with real numbers in hand.
The single most costly mistake we see: driving an overheating car 'just a few more miles.' A $150 thermostat becomes a $2,000 head gasket when the engine cooks. If your temperature gauge climbs or steam appears, pull over and call (251) 234-4623. We diagnose cooling systems on-site — thermostats, water pumps, radiators, fans, hoses — and most cooling repairs happen where the car sits or same-day in-shop.
For catastrophic failures — thrown rods, cracked blocks — a quality used or remanufactured engine often costs less than rebuilding yours, with a better warranty. We source engines, handle the full swap at our shop, and stand behind the installation. You get a written warranty on parts and labor either way.
“Towing a fifth wheel on vacation, we blew the water pump on our Ram 2500 Cummins. These guys answered right away and arrived on site before either of the roadside services I PAY FOR called me back. New water pump, thermostat, serpentine — then a coolant line blew and they wouldn't leave us. Great communication the entire time. I run a fleet of trucks and know how hard mobile maintenance can be — they delivered.”
“These guys were with me every step of the way to get my issues resolved. If you are ever in this area, please call them — you will not be disappointed. They are awesome.”
“Traveling through Lucedale, MS on vacation and had car trouble on a Sunday. They responded ASAP and got us back on the road. Very helpful and great customer service.”
