  1. Open your phone

  2. Select Contacts

  3. Select Mechanic

  4. Select whether you want to check your Mansions or a specific garage

    • If you select Mansions, pick the Mansion you want to check

    • If you select a garage, pick the floor you want to check

    • Vehicles will appear near your character (check the map)

Note: The Mechanic will have a 2-minute cooldown between calling vehicles.
