“Fares did some major repairs on my GTI, including brakes, rear main seal and transmission fluid change. He is professional, capable and courteous. Despite the terrible weather he persevered, and got the job done. Very happy with his work.”Google review, five stars, August 2026
“Fares came by and did the brakes on my 2021 Lexus RX350. I got quoted way more at a shop so I decided to try a mobile mechanic instead. He showed up on time, did the work in my driveway, and everything went smoothly.”Google review, five stars, 2021 Lexus RX350
“Wonderful and quick experience, charged me way less than the dealer and he did the work in my driveway in the cold. I really appreciate all the hard work.”Google review, five stars

A dead battery is one of the most common calls I get, and it's also one of the most time-sensitive. You've got somewhere to be, the car won't start, and the last thing you want is to wait for a tow truck and then wait at a shop.
I come to you with the correct group size battery for your vehicle already on the truck. I don't just swap the battery and leave. I test the charging system to make sure the alternator is actually charging it properly, clean the terminals, and check that the new battery seats and connects correctly. If the alternator is the real problem, I'll tell you that before you pay for a battery you don't need.
Pricing varies by vehicle because battery group sizes vary significantly. A Honda Civic battery is much less expensive than a BMW X5 AGM battery. I'll give you the price before I start.
Woke up and the car won't start. Most common in late fall and winter when temperatures drop and an aging battery finally gives up overnight. I come to your driveway and replace it before your day is derailed.
Typical scenarioCame out at the end of the day to a dead car. Office parking lots are completely fine for a battery replacement. I come to the lot, replace it, you drive home normally.
Very commonCame out of a store to a car that won't start. Public commercial parking is accessible for me. Happens often in October-November when summer batteries hit their first cold snap.
CommonCar sat in the driveway for a week or two and now won't turn over. Could be a parasitic drain killing the battery, or just a battery that's at the end of its life. I test both.
Needs diagnosisJust swapping the battery and leaving is incomplete. Before I install the new battery, I test the old battery's actual capacity (sometimes a battery recovers with a boost and has another season left), load-test the alternator's charging output, and inspect the terminals for corrosion that can prevent proper charging even with a brand new battery.
If your alternator isn't charging properly, a new battery will just drain again within a few days. I catch that before it happens.
Getting a boost from a neighbour or roadside assistance is a temporary fix. If your battery is failing, it will fail again, probably within days, and often at a worse time. The correct answer for a battery that can no longer hold a charge is replacement, not repeated boosting.
There's also the alternator confusion: if your car dies while driving, or dies again shortly after a boost, the battery might not be the problem at all, a failing alternator won't charge the battery while the car runs. Replacing the battery in that situation is wasted money. I test both.
Mobile battery replacement available across Mississauga, Oakville, Milton, Brampton and Etobicoke:
If your car starts after a boost but dies again shortly after, the alternator may not be charging. If it stays running after a boost, it's more likely just the battery. I test both when I arrive so you're not replacing the wrong part.
Yes. Parking lots are one of the most common places I get battery calls. I'll come to the lot, replace the battery on-site, and you drive home. Most commercial parking lots are accessible.
Disconnecting the battery can reset radio presets, power window calibration, and sometimes idle quality. I use a memory keeper when appropriate and will let you know what to expect for your specific vehicle.
Typically 3–5 years in Ontario conditions. Cold temperatures significantly reduce battery capacity, a battery at -20°C has about 40% less starting power. If yours is 3+ years old, get it tested before winter hits.
