Beswick's Mobile & Auto Repair

Don67 11 months ago

We were in town for UCSB parents weekend when my water pump went out. We made it to the hotel and I started searching for a mobile mechanic. I exchanged texts with Kris on Saturday night. Sunday morning he came by the hotel, diagnosed the problem, located parts, and drove the car back to his shop which luckily was only a few miles away. He brought the car back to me and by 3PM I was on the road headed home. Kris came to the rescue and saved me the hassle of having to stay another night and find an open shop on Monday. The cost of repair was very reasonable.

Kris Beswick is a reliable and creative mechanic who took excellent care of my 2000 Ford E350. He always answers calls and texts, and finds smart, practical solutions for tough repairs. Highly recommend.

Kris worked on my imported Land Rover Defender about 10 years ago. He came to my home and took care of business. Super honest and if I ever need work again on a vehicle purchased used, he'll be my first call.

Kris Beswick is very a knowledgeable and dedicated and thorough mechanic. He is known and trusted by the automotive community in this area and handles tough jobs others cannot be bothered to do. He is an honest family man. He usually has his hands in an engine compartment, so it is not always easy to get him on the phone, but he responds to texts. Kris took on a complex overhaul of our 1950 Ford F1 and we highly recommend him.

DO NOT HIRE THIS BUSINESS!! We hired Beswick in May 2023 to repair the power steering on our RV. He determined we needed a new gear box and quoted us $4100 for the repair. He claimed to have experience working on RVs and to be familiar with this repair. He also assured us the repair could be done mobile because we couldn’t get it to his shop without power steering. He wanted a deposit of $3000 to order the part. We paid him and then heard nothing for several weeks while “waiting for the part to ship.” Finally in July we contacted him to make sure the repair could be done for a trip we had planned at the end of the month. He claimed the part “just arrived” and it was no problem. But it was unclear if he was working on it or what was going on. We got to the point where we had to text him every day to get information and he continued to respond that he was working on it and chipping away. Finally, he claimed that he was close and just needed to take it to his shop for “finishing touches” but a week later the RV was still parked in storage where it started. We then moved our trip because he couldn’t deliver when he promised. He then promised Friday but it wasn’t ready, then sugges
