RepairSmith acquired More Automotive Group, a provider of mobile repair and maintenance services for fleets, property managers, and corporate office parks in the San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento, Calif.
Founded in 2016, More Automotive Group services thousands of vehicles annually, delivering on-site repair and preventive maintenance including oil changes, filter and wiper blade replacements, tire rotation, brake and suspension repairs, and check engine light diagnostics. Concierge service to an off-site repair facility is also available for more complex work.
RepairSmith will now service all More Automotive locations and fleets. Through the acquisition, RepairSmith adds location-based, mobile service availability for property managers and corporate office parks. The service line expansion builds on RepairSmith's complete at-home service launched in August 2019, and complements the recently announced fleet service.
With the addition of location-based services, RepairSmith expands its growing fleet of mobile service vehicles to now include Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Cab Chassis vehicles outfitted with oil handling equipment and tire machines to enable high-volume oil changes, preventive services, and on-site tire replacement and tire balancing.
"Our growing, state-of-the-art fleet of service vehicles are expanding the traditional mobile repair experience by bringing the highest quality diagnostics, tools and parts direct to our customers," said Felix-Matthias Walter, Chief Commercial Officer at RepairSmith, responsible for all customer-facing and technical operations within RepairSmith. "Our new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Cab Chassis vehicles are specially equipped for location and fleet services and carry all relevant tools and custom supplied parts to deliver exceptional quality. Teaming up with More Automotive Group is part of our strategic vision to become the most convenient automotive service company."

RepairSmith will continue to expand its offerings from fleet vehicles to corporate offices.
RepairSmith operates its Delivery and Drop Off services across all major metropolitan areas in California, as well as Las Vegas and Phoenix. All RepairSmith mechanics are employees of the company and drive a custom-outfitted Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Mercedes-Benz Metris, or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Cab Chassis equipped with quality tools and parts to deliver a five-star service experience.
