MotorMen Auto Service

Great experience at Mechanica Shop! I had an excellent experience with Mechanica Shop. The staff were professional, knowledgeable, and honest about what my car needed. The service was done on time, and everything was clearly explained without any pressure or unnecessary upselling. The shop was clean, prices were fair, and my car runs perfectly now. I highly recommend Mechanica Shop to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy auto service.

The two brothers that own and run Motormen auto service and body shop are really great guys. They took the time to look at my vehicle and check the computer check engine light and told me the truth about what the issues were with my truck. I was in New Orleans for the summer and had to go back to Tucson Arizona a 20 Hour drive in the extreme heat. They told me the issues were under warranty at my mechanic in Tucson and that they wouldn’t cause a problem during my trip and they were correct. They also helped me find out what my truck might be worth if I want to sell it. They are conveniently located just north of Claiborne on Euterpe the same road as Home Depot. I recommend you check them out they are funny smart fast and know their vehicles. They advised me on what type of vehicle I could switch to when I sell my diesel. When I was in their shop I felt safe, listened to, and respected. I definitely will go to them for any mechanical needs when I am in New Orleans!!

My car had a terrifying issue with brakes as I was driving through New Orleans. I stopped here and they were able to fix it quickly and at a very reasonable price. This place saved me. Go here for affordable prices and reliable, trustworthy service.

AVOID THEM AT YOUR COST. They are unprofessional and will charge three times market price. I had to change my valve cover gasket and did an oil change, they charged $600, where the part is $60 for the gasket, oil change is $85, the rest is labor. They said 5 hours work. I googled it, that service should cost from $50 to $350, with my car model particularly it’s about $150 total. With that expensive price, they didn’t even do oil change properly. After three weeks, the car says “engine service requested”, aka oil change needed, because they didn’t reset the light for oil change as a usual $25 oil change do. Next, my car needs to replace ignition coil, they said $700, with $350 part, $350 labor. They said it’s 4 hours work. Luckily, this time I googled first, usually the labor is $50-$100, with half an hour work and most people do it themselves (easy for DIY). The part that I end up buying myself is $120. Man, it’s scary to work with them. These people lie with no emotions in their faces.

Got a flat not too far from here; stopped in for a new/used tire (mine was garbage) and service was super quick and the price was fair. I got a quote for a brake job while I was there and will be back for that. No muss no fuss- a relief.
