Mobile mechanic vehicle, location and service comparison workbook
A mobile-mechanic conversation is clearer when every provider receives the same non-sensitive vehicle, symptom, location, access and service brief. This helpful preparation resource from PickYourPro.ai keeps diagnosis, roadworthiness, site suitability and repair decisions with the provider while helping you compare the written scope, authorization process, records and handoff.

This is a proposal-preparation workbook, not an inspection, diagnosis, roadworthiness or safety declaration; driving or repair instruction; part, fluid or repair recommendation; or warranty, insurance, contract or legal interpretation. The provider decides site suitability, diagnostic steps and work for the actual vehicle.

How to use this resource
Report symptoms in your own words, vehicle basics without a VIN or plate, the broad location and access context without an address or code, and relevant service-history categories. Ask the provider to assess whether mobile service is suitable, lead the diagnosis, explain the written work and parts categories, obtain authorization for changes, and provide completion records and follow-up terms.
Open the PDF in a form-capable viewer, save a copy, then fill it in. Reopen your saved copy to check your answers. You can also print the blank pages and write by hand. Your answers are not submitted to PickYourPro.ai.

- Ask each provider to assess whether the location and vehicle condition suit mobile service.
- Separate provider-led diagnosis from any repair or maintenance you later authorize.

- Compare completion records, warranty information, follow-up and handoff.
Questions to ask a mobile mechanic
- What information do you need to assess whether this vehicle and location are suitable for mobile service?
- What inspection or diagnostic work will you perform before recommending or requesting authorization for repairs?
- How will the written scope separate diagnostic work, authorized tasks, parts categories, exclusions and assumptions?
- How will you ask for approval and document changed findings or added work before proceeding?
- What completed repair record, parts information, observations and warranty terms will you provide?
- What follow-up, unresolved-item, vehicle-status and handoff process will apply after the visit?
Write down the answers and any exclusions. If two proposals describe different work, clarify the difference before comparing their totals. Leave unanswered points blank until the professional confirms them.
