David brings two decades of hands-on experience and a proven track record.
Scam-Free
No Upfront Parts Money
We NEVER ask you to send us money for parts before we arrive. Many "mobile mechanics" in the area scam people this way — we don't. You only pay once the work is underway.
We Handle It
We Pick Up Your Parts
No running to the parts store. We go get the parts your vehicle needs and bring them to you. You're also welcome to supply your own parts — just note they aren't covered by our work warranty.
For You
Community First
We believe every family deserves affordable vehicle repair. Your car is your lifeline.
We Get It
CAR TROUBLE SHOULDN'T BREAK YOUR BUDGET
Times are tough right now. A lot of folks around Pensacola are working two or three jobs and still barely scraping by — and the last thing anyone needs is a car breaking down and turning into a repair they can't afford.
Your vehicle is your lifeline. It's how you get to work, get the kids to school, keep food on the table. We know what it feels like to stare at a repair bill and feel the weight of it. That's why we do things differently.
We hold a commercial account with our parts house — and instead of keeping that discount, we pass it straight down to you. No shop markup. No padding the bill. Just honest, upfront pricing on the parts your vehicle actually needs to get you back on the road.
Parts Discount, Passed Down
Our commercial parts discount goes to you — not into our pocket. Every repair, every time.
We've Been There Too
We're your neighbors, not a faceless shop. We know what a surprise repair can do to a family's week.
Your Lifeline Matters
Keeping your car running keeps your life running. That's the whole reason we do this.
“I was dreading the bill — working two jobs and the truck just quit on me. David came out, fixed it right there, and the price was honest. The parts discount he passed on actually made it doable. He gets it. He really does.”

Meet the Mechanic
DAVID SEFFENS
AFFORDABLE EXPERT
20+ years of hands-on experience as an affordable mobile mechanic in Pensacola — race-proven precision in every on-site repair.
"From BMX to go-karts to dirt track glory — a lifetime of competition built the mechanic who works on your car."
David's racing story didn't start behind a wheel — it started on a BMX bike. From there he moved quickly to go-karts, where he proved dominant and highly competitive. He worked his way up through the Stinger class, then into open wheel Modified dirt track racing, before ultimately landing in IMCA Modified racing where he truly made his mark.
The 2025 season said it all: Track Title at Southern Raceway, 2nd in Florida State Points, and 4th in Alabama — all in the same year. Now the team is quietly making moves behind the scenes, gearing up for an even bigger 2027 race season.
That same drive, discipline, and mechanical precision goes into every repair David touches. When you hire Seffens Automotive, you're getting a master mechanic with 20+ years of experience working on your vehicle.
Skilled Welder & Fabricator
David brings 20+ years of hands-on welding and fabrication experience to every job — from custom brackets and exhaust work to full race car fabrication. Proven on the track and under the hood.

Amanda L.Toyota Camry
"Had an issue with my AC, called for the diagnostic. They were there in a timely manner and able to tell me the issue in 7 minutes. Scheduled the repair promptly and it was blowing snowballs within an hour. Haven't had any issues since — they told me if anything happens just to let them know. Overall great experience, highly recommend. They came to my site with no hassle."
Thomas HeltonA/C Repair
"We are overjoyed with these guys. They came right to me and after two other mechanics failed to get the fix right, David was hell bent on fixing the underlying issue. Not only did he find the problem and fix it, he actually improved it and made it function even better. I will be using them for just about every problem too big for me. He's very patient and very skilled. Their prices are very affordable. I highly recommend them. Thank you David and Amber!!"
Craig JohnsonA/C Repair
"Seffens Automotive is fantastic. I broke down at the gas station and called them and they dropped what they were doing on a Sunday and came up there to look at my van and even towed it for me to my house. They are very knowledgeable and trustworthy. Very affordable and they stand by their work. Will only be using them from now on because they actually care about their customers not just about money. Thank u Seffens Automotive for getting me back on the road again. Highly recommended."

"While stranded in the parking lot of an urgent care while my wife was getting my baby checked out for an ear infection, my car shredded a serpentine belt while my other son and I were waiting. One phone call away and Seffens Automotive were on their way with a new belt. Excellent service done quickly and efficiently to get us back on the road. Strongly recommend this mobile mechanic service! Thanks guys!!"
RenSerpentine Belt
"David and his wife provided outstanding service! We had been struggling to remove a stubborn bolt for quite some time with no success. They came to our home, assessed the situation, and had the bolt removed in less than 5 minutes. They were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. It's clear they know what they're doing and take pride in helping people. I highly recommend David and his wife for anyone needing automotive or mechanical assistance. Thank you both for saving us time and frustration!"
Timberly SkinnerGeneral Repair
"I can't say enough good things about Seffens Automotive! Him and his wife are truly amazing people who care about their customers and take pride in what they do. They are honest, professional, reliable, and make the whole experience easy and stress-free from start to finish. It is hard to find an automotive shop you can fully trust, but Seffens Automotive is definitely one of those places. They treat you with respect, explain things clearly, and go above and beyond to make sure the job is done right. I highly recommend them to anyone needing vehicle repairs or service. Great people, great service, and outstanding work all around!"
David McCartyVehicle Repair
"David and Amber were phenomenal! After 2 no show mobile mechanics, they came to my rescue! Poor David worked in the dark AND in the rain to get me back on the road! The repairs were more in depth than anticipated, but he was ready and unphased! I will definitely be using them again and recommending them to my friends!"
Autumn LitteralRoadside Repair
"Absolutely amazing service from Seffens! We messaged late at night after having car trouble and they came out the very next day and fixed the problem quickly. (From Pensacola to Navarre) Super friendly, affordable, honest, and really put us at ease. As a family with a baby, being without a car was stressful, but they made the whole experience so much easier. Couldn't recommend them enough — reliable, professional, and genuinely kind people. Thank you again!"
Emma ColeA/C Repair
"I had a new CV axle installed, transmission service, and brake job done. The staff at Seffens Automotive are professional, prompt, and very affordable. I highly recommend them and will definitely only use them from now on."
Christopher NicholsonCV Axle, Transmission & Brakes
"I am totally impressed with the TEAM theme, rapid response rate, & face to face Customer Service integrity! Witnessing the knowledge on His CRAFT, is rather ARTISTICISTIC bad assery, disassembled, & neat with his tools. I had to take snaps. 2 THUMBS UP is a SOLID & HONEST recommendation. They earned my other 2 chariots, BMW X3 & Dakota rat-rod. This review was voluntary. I am referring, YOU will not be disappointed."
Christopher TimeMagicImagesTransmission & Exhaust
"Fast, efficient and friendly service. Very flexible and willing to work around my schedule. Offered fair pricing. Had my front brakes replaced, David took the time to wipe off all my hub caps so they were clean — even the back tires. Very impressed and will be using again!! Thanks so much!"

Questions?
FREQUENTLY ASKED
No — never. A lot of folks in the Pensacola area have been scammed by "mobile mechanics" who ask for money to be sent to them for parts before they ever show up. We do NOT operate that way. You never pay for parts before we're on-site and the work is underway. Honest, transparent, and scam-free — that's the Seffens standard.
Nope — we go get the parts for you so you don't have to. We pick up what your vehicle needs and bring it right to your location. You can also supply your own parts if you prefer, but please note: customer-supplied parts are welcome, they just aren't covered by our work warranty.
Nope — zero travel fees within our service area. We come to your home, work, or roadside at no extra cost. No hidden fees, ever.
Yes! We have a commercial account with our parts house, which means we get a solid discount on parts — and we pass those savings directly to you. That's one of the ways we keep our prices lower than the competition.
Yes! All work performed by Seffens Automotive comes with a 90-day work warranty. If something isn't right, we'll come back and fix it free of charge.
Most repairs can be completed right where your vehicle sits. If a job requires specialized shop equipment, we'll give you an honest assessment and help you understand your options — no pressure, no upselling.
We service cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, diesel trucks, fleet vehicles, and even some marine and agricultural equipment. If it has an engine, chances are we can fix it.
We operate Monday through Friday, 8am to 8pm (closed Saturdays and Sundays). For roadside emergencies, call us directly and we'll dispatch as quickly as possible — often same-day.
Yes! We proudly offer 10% off all services for active duty military, veterans, and their families. We're grateful for your service — just show your military ID, VA card, or DD-214 at the time of service and we'll apply the discount.
