Born in the 80s, raised in the 90s….

Miami Beach
2025/5/28 Edited to

... Read moreSo, you want to know what it's like to be born in the 80s and raised through the wild 90s, then end up running a mobile mechanic shop? Let me tell you, it's a journey! I often think about those profound cultural shifts; one minute it was all about big hair bands and arcade games, the next, it was grunge and the dawn of the internet. This era, especially my childhood in the 80s and 90s, instilled in me a unique blend of resourcefulness and adaptability that's super relevant to being a mobile mechanic today. I remember endlessly tinkering with things as a kid, from bikes to broken VCRs. There wasn't always a quick YouTube tutorial back then! That hands-on problem-solving mentality, that deep dive into how things work, it definitely stuck with me. You know, like trying to figure out if that one wrestling move from a famous 80s wrestler would actually work, or plotting routes to local landmarks on a paper map. It taught me how to diagnose and find solutions, even when resources were limited. Plus, the independent spirit of the 90s definitely influenced my desire to run my own business, DR.FIX IT. Flash forward to today, and I'm still figuring things out, but now it's mostly under the hood of a car. My business is all about keeping Miami rolling. It's not just about fixing cars; it's about connecting with people, understanding their needs, and providing reliable service right where they are. Being a VETERANA has taught me discipline, precision, and unwavering dedication, qualities I bring to every job. And as a LATINA in Miami, I deeply understand the community, which is why HABLAMOS ESPANOL is just as important as English in my shop. The mobile aspect is huge. I’ve seen firsthand how inconvenient it is when your brakes start squealing louder than your last situationship – trust me, we've all been there! Or when your car just won't start at the worst possible moment. That's why I offer comprehensive services like cambio de aceite (oil changes), frenos (brakes), detailed diagnóstico (diagnostics), suspension repair, and even help with arranques y baterias (starters and batteries). My goal is to make car repair as stress-free as possible, bringing the repair shop right to you. I handle everything from disc brake caliper assembly to meticulous brake pads and rotor replacements. Those early experiences from the 80s and 90s taught me the value of hard work, genuine connection, and persistence. I pride myself on not just being a mechanic, but a trusted advisor. We don't 'ghost' our clients; we diagnose! Whether it's a simple servicio diesel y gasolina (diesel and gasoline service) or more complex mecánica general para carros y camiones (general mechanics for cars and trucks), I'm here for you. Even specialized servicio para flotas comerciales (commercial fleet service) is something I excel in. I’m truly disponible 24/7! It's all about bringing that old-school dedication and reliability from my childhood to modern mobile convenience. My passion for what I do started way back when, and it continues to drive DR.FIX IT forward, helping our community one car at a time.

I knowwwww I’m not the only person that miss the 90s, I’m so happy that I was able to witness the black beauty fashion trends back then. I miss the shows, drive-in movies, the fashion, the old school cookouts, and the local candy stores!! Remember when chips were only .25, and we couldn’t wait for
