Shop vs. mobile: which fits your fridge problem
A shop like Bob Blackburn's Mountain Automotive & RV Center can pull your fridge and bench test it. That's handy for cooling unit swaps or circuit board diagnosis. A mobile tech like Mountain Mobile RV Repair comes to you, which saves a tow if the rig won't move or you're camped nearby. Before you choose, ask if they stock the parts your model needs. Absorption fridges are fussy about venting and leveling, so mention your setup. If you're under warranty, get pre-approval from the manufacturer first. That step avoids surprises, and one of the two shops here does warranty work.
What to tell the tech when you call
Don't just say "my fridge is broken." Describe what you see and hear. Does it cool on shore power but not on propane? Is there a yellow residue near the burner? Does it work after sitting level but quit on a slope? Those clues help a tech bring the right parts on the first trip, which matters when you're in Mariposa and the nearest big-box RV store is a drive away. Also ask about weekend availability; one local shop offers weekend service, and that can make or break a trip.
A word on timing and ratings
Spring and early summer fill up service calendars fast, so book as soon as you notice a problem. The shop here has 81 reviews and a 4.6 rating, while the mobile tech has a 5.0 from a single review. That perfect score is promising but thin, so ask the mobile tech for references or recent job details. Neither option is a bad choice; just match the service to your situation and confirm the price range before work starts.

Questions people ask
How many RV refrigerator repair options are there in Mariposa?
Two. One is a full shop and the other is a mobile tech. Both also handle awning repair, and one does warranty work. That gives you a choice between dropping off your rig and having a tech come to your site.
Do either of the shops have a good rating?
Yes. The two options average 4.8 stars. Bob Blackburn's Mountain Automotive & RV Center has a 4.6 from 81 reviews, and Mountain Mobile RV Repair has a 5.0 from one review. The mobile tech's sample size is small, so ask for references.
Can a mobile tech fix my RV fridge on site?
Often, yes. Mobile techs can diagnose and repair many fridge issues, like clogged vents or faulty thermistors, right at your campsite. But major work like replacing a cooling unit might need a shop. Ask the tech upfront what they can do on site.
Should I check my warranty before booking?
Always. One of the two local shops does warranty work, but you'll want pre-approval from your RV or fridge manufacturer. That step confirms what's covered and who pays, so you're not stuck with a bill you didn't expect.
