The Highest Rated Auto Repair in Nashville

Ranked by the rating and review count on each listing, not by who pays us. Nobody pays us.

  1. RDB Mobile Mechanic★ 5.0246 reviews · Mobile
  2. Roll Away Brakes - Mobile Brake Repair★ 5.0222 reviews · Mobile
  3. Kingdom Mobile Auto Repair★ 5.0108 reviews · Mobile
  4. PT Automotive★ 5.084 reviews · Repair Shop
  5. Clutch Automotive Repair★ 5.070 reviews · Repair Shop

The best reviewed business in Nashville right now is RDB Mobile Mechanic, at 5.0 stars across 246 reviews. Every shop above clears 4.3 stars with at least 15 reviews behind it, which is the point where a rating starts meaning something. Plenty of shops hold five stars on four reviews. That is not the same thing.

Of the 88 businesses listed in Nashville, there are 45 that will come to you, 30 with a workshop you drive to, 4 RV and trailer shops and 10 tire shops. 1 of them has been claimed by the owner, which means somebody has confirmed the hours, the phone number and what they actually work on. An unclaimed listing is not a worse business. It just means we built the record and nobody has corrected it yet.

Getting a Car Fixed in Nashville

Independent shops in Tennessee usually charge $85 to $130 an hour for labor, which is below the national average. A quote is the book time for the job times that rate, plus parts. At Tennessee rates, a starter replacement runs about $235 to $725 and a serpentine belt replacement runs about $70 to $245 for a midsize car.

Of the 79 Nashville listings that post their hours, 56 open on Saturday and 44 on Sunday. 46 open before 8 AM on weekdays, which helps if you need to drop the car off before work.

72 businesses in Nashville have at least 15 reviews, enough for a rating to mean something, and 56 of those hold 4.5 stars or better. Half of them have 95 or more reviews. A shop with a long history and a 4.6 is a safer call than a perfect 5.0 from a handful of people.

For work a general shop may turn away, Nashville has 1 diesel specialist, 1 transmission shop, 1 body and collision shop, 10 tire shops, 4 RV and trailer shops and 7 heavy duty and fleet shops. Call ahead with the year, make and model so you do not waste a trip.

Tennessee does not require a periodic safety or emissions inspection for passenger cars. Emissions testing ended in Hamilton, Rutherford, Sumner, Williamson and Wilson counties in January 2022. Davidson County (Nashville) ended its test on February 5, 2022. Details are on the Metro Public Health Department, Nashville and Davidson County site.

Owning a Car in Nashville

50Days a Year at 90°F or Hotter
76Nights a Year at or Below Freezing
53Inches of Rain a Year
25Minute Average Commute
1.69Cars per Household
7%Households With No Car
66%Drive to Work Alone

Summers here bring about 50 days at 90°F or hotter. That is enough to finish off a tired battery or a weak AC compressor, so get both checked in spring rather than on the first hot day.

Lows drop to freezing on about 76 nights a year. Cold is when a weak battery finally fails, because a cold engine takes more power to turn over.

About 53 inches of rain fall in a year. Worn tires lose grip on wet roads well before they look bald, and streaky wipers are a cheap fix worth doing before the wet season, not during it.

The average commute in Nashville is 25 minutes each way, and 66% of workers drive there alone.

What are the downsides of using a mobile mechanic?

Some work needs a shop. Transmission swaps, engine rebuilds, alignments and anything that needs a lift go to a garage. Bad weather can push back a driveway job, and you need a safe, legal place to park where the mechanic can work. Many mobile mechanics also run a shop, or will tell you up front when a job needs one.

How do I shop around for car repairs?

Get a written estimate that lists parts and labor. Call two or three shops with the same estimate and ask each for a total price. Ask what warranty comes with the parts and the work.
