Abstract: The increasing dependency on personal and commercial vehicles has created a growing demand for efficient and reliable repair services. Many vehicle owners face difficulties in locating a mechanic when their vehicle breaks down unexpectedly, leading to significant inconvenience, time loss, and financial burden. It is an innovative, on-demand vehicle repair platform that connects users with professional mechanics through a mobile application, allowing them to request repair services at any time and location. The system offers two primary service modes: Fix at Site, where the mechanic reaches the user’s location to fix the issue, and Fix at Garage, where the user drops their vehicle at a nearby selected garage. The platform integrates advanced features such as real-time GPS tracking, OTP-based authentication for service validation, live service status updates, and secure payment processing to enhance the overall user experience. This paper presents a detailed study on how the FixMyRide platform is designed and developed, along with its system architecture, technology stack, and implementation process. The research explores how on-demand service platforms have revolutionized industries, providing insights into how digital solutions can be leveraged to modernize vehicle repair services. The study also examines the challenges in traditional vehicle repair services and how it effectively resolves these problems through a streamlined, technology-driven approach.
