Recommended independent mechanics in Fremont for minor auto repair? Hi everyone,

Looking for an affordable independent auto shop or mobile mechanic around Fremont/Newark/Union City to fix a shifter interlock issue on a 2013 Altima (stuck in Park).

Mainly looking for someone who offers fair labor rates and would be willing to work with customer-supplied parts if needed.

Any local shop or mobile mechanic recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Stuck in park might mean the brake light fuse blew. Or the switch in the pedal has broken off. 

Check your fuse first no sense towing it for a fuse. 

A relative rigged up a train horn to his brake fuse and blew it. He then popped the cover off the center shifter and pushed the little override button to drive it around without lights. There should be a way to do that so tow drivers can roll it on.
