Perfect for situations when your stuck and don’t know what to do
Pete knock is a highly recommended mechanic. He knows his stuff and knows how to listen. If you meet him keep him in your contacts.Antonio_.Perez
Good concept, poor execution
I work on my car a lot and lots of times going back to google for help, so I thought this would be an amazing app to try. Unfortunately that’s not the case. After making an account you see the home page and go to start a conversation but it’s $5.99 to start a conversation or there’s a subscription. It would be nice if free apps were actually free even if the free chat was an ai helping you suggesting solutions or videos to follow. That or make the app paid for. The concept is nice but I’m disappointed that the first thing greeting me was to pay for something, it’s kind of deceiving especially since it’s free and not mentioned in the advertising.Show lessjkowallek

Got on the call today, immediately got connected to Issac in order to ask about what could cause my fuel pump not priming. I have a strong background with Hondas and mechanic side of stuff, but was looking for a second opinion. He had no idea what I was talking about, giving me recommendations that I told him in the beginning of the car I have checked or replaced, So he was throwing anything out to stick and majority of them didn’t even make sense because he was so unfamiliar with the application.
He was keep loooking everything stuff up online to read me online recommendations. I have already done my research myself, I paid to get an advice from somebody with experience!
Very disappointed and will absolutely not give this app a second try!Show lessRodmorad

Why didn’t you tell me I have to pay before you take all my information. Now I’m skeptical of going any further because I don’t know what else to expect. I really thought this was going to be innovative in launching towards a new direction of automotive technology.JUNE2NDMIXEDIT

Tinker DIY was a life saver when I got stuck changing batteries and doing related auto DIY electrical work on my 2016 Honda Odyssey. It seamlessly connected me to an automotive technician. The automotive technician/ car mechanic was very friendly and patient through the entire process. He helped save time searching for the right parts and suggesting a faster approach. Taking this to a garage could have easily cost me over $200. Tinker DIY thank you for helping me save money and save time with a no nonsense price transparent credible solution.Show lessQuiet sleep
