Job description
You Know How to Fix Cars. Now Work Somewhere Built Around Mechanics.
Tired of the Traditional Dealership Environment?
As a Pre-Owned Vehicle Mechanic , you will inspect, diagnose, repair, and recondition pre-owned vehicles before they are offered for sale. This is a hands-on position for an experienced mechanic who enjoys variety, solving problems, and fixing vehicles correctly.
You will work on domestic and import vehicles across a wide range of makes and models , performing everything from routine maintenance to complex mechanical and diagnostic repairs.
What You'll Do
Inspect incoming pre-owned vehicles for mechanical, electrical, safety, and maintenance concerns.
Diagnose vehicle problems using scan tools, diagnostic equipment, service information, and hands-on troubleshooting.
Perform mechanical and electrical repairs on a variety of makes and models.
Repair brakes, suspension, steering, cooling systems, exhaust, HVAC, electrical systems, and other vehicle components.
Perform routine maintenance including oil and fluid services, filters, belts, batteries, and other preventive maintenance.
Diagnose and repair check-engine lights and other warning indicators.
Determine what each vehicle needs to be safe, reliable, and retail-ready.
Test drive vehicles before and after repairs to verify proper operation.
Work with the reconditioning team, parts department, and management to complete repairs efficiently.
Accurately document inspections, diagnoses, repairs, and parts used.
Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area.
Properly use and maintain tools, lifts, diagnostic equipment, and other shop equipment.
Why This Job Is Different
This is for the mechanic who likes fixing cars but wants a different kind of shop environment.
You'll work on different makes and models, diagnose real problems, and use your experience every day.
No manufacturer warranty work as the primary focus. No sitting around doing the same repair over and over.
Just good mechanics doing what they do best: finding problems and fixing vehicles.
And you'll do it in a fully climate-controlled, state-of-the-art Used Vehicle Repair Facility.
Our employees also have access to an employee-only fitness center, basketball court, and pickleball courts.

The Bottom Line
