Jake and the guys at Wise have helped my Dad, my son, and myself many times. Their prices are fair and their work is quality. I appreciate having a shop I can count on. Absolutely recommend.

Charged me $50 for them to listen to my engine for 30 seconds and tell me what they thought was wrong with it, and wanted to charge another $150 to take off the valve cover and actually see what the issue was. The bad part they thought it had isn’t even in my vehicles engine. They seemed like nice people though.

I cannot recommend this shop enough! The team here is not only skilled and knowledgeable, but they truly care about their customers and their vehicles. The pricing is very fair, and they always provide excellent service with quick turnaround times. It’s such a relief to have a trustworthy mechanic shop close to home in NKC. I know that my car is always in good hands when I bring it here. Thank you to the guys at this shop for consistently providing top-notch service!

I’ve been going to Mike and Jake at Wise Auto for the past 11 years for any of my car repair needs. These guys are great. Their prices are fair, and they get the job done swiftly. Truly honest, kind people.

In the midst of the uncertainty of almost losing my vehicle to the evil landlords, we found this safe haven, this beacon of purity and stability. All other shops either didn't do the job I needed, or wouldn't due to corporate regulations and greed, but Wise Auto was there to help. I have told the tale of a small car shop in NKC, take it to your grave, dear travellers

**Editing this rating from 5 stars to 1** TLDR: Shop used to be awesome, came here frequently, they had my car for basically two weeks and did no work to it, wrongly advised me, will never return again. I used to come here constantly with my previous vehicle (F150) due to its issues and used to (key words) have amazing service. I would drop it off at the beginning of a work day and come back at the end of the day and it would be fixed with no problems at a decent price. Fast forward a year and a half later. I’ve taken my vehicle in here twice in the past two months, my newer (to me) vehicle is a 92 Camaro with a simple 305 engine and minor wiring, which to most would be rather easy to work on. I had cooling issues after I hit a tire on the interstate that damaged my air condenser but wasn’t exactly sure what was going on yet. I had it in for a diagnostic, I gave them 3 days to do the work to find out what was going on. They waited until the last day to do anything, and it was only after I called to get an update, that I actually received one. They did the diagnostic and couldn’t tell me that anything was wrong but they blamed the fans for not cooling properly or turning on at the right time but never mentioned what it looked like to fix that problem. I read online that it was an air condenser and they said that could be it and that they could fix it but it might be better for me to order the parts online because it’s be cheaper for me, which I appreciated. Well fast forward 3-4 weeks, my wife and I are going on vacation, I’ve received the new part and planned to drop it off for them to do the work so my car would be fixed by the time I get back. They had the car for a WHOLE WEEK. They did absolutely nothing to it. I show up to pick the car up because I needed it for work regardless and as I’m pulling out of the garage, he tells me he’s glad they didn’t replace it due to the tools that it required probably wouldn’t have worked anyway and that he doesn’t believe that was the issue and probably wouldn’t have solved my problems…. Now why would you tell me to buy that part and not warn me that that’s the problem?? A mechanics job is to diagnose, inspect, provide guidance and repair. 3/4 of those four responsibilities were completely disregarded. Nothing was done after basically 2 weeks total of having the car. I don’t think I even got an apology after I discussed my disappointment with Jake. This shop has gone increasingly downhill and I’m sad to say they will no longer receive my business or the business of my colleagues, and I wouldn’t recommend you to bring your vehicle here either.

Best mechanic I ever knew, and am lucky to know. Straightforward, intelligent, and honest business practices paired with experienced and efficient mechanical skills. Mike really knows his profession inside and out. Best, he won't suggest unnecessary repairs. His prices are fair, and he is straight with you when replacement will be cheaper than repair. Mike is truly a stand up guy and superior mechanic. Bring the man a good barbecue sandwich, he probably earned it twice already today, plus he loves 'em! Mike is the best.

I take all my car issuess here and I hope that doesnt change. The only place where I feel like they want to actually help me, gives me great advice and doesn’t talk down to me or make me feel like im being lectured.

Small efficient shop and an office with an old fashioned popcorn machine. Owner is an honest and thorough mechanic as are the employees. They work on most makes and models, and can do almost any repair. Locally owned and operated.

Can’t in good faith give a lower review since my experience with them was brief and may be uncharacteristic of them, but: 1. Brought my 1997 Dodge Dakota in to fix a power steering leak. Brought the severe leak down to a minor leak. Price was reasonable but problem was not completely solved. 2. Needed to get my wheel hub bearing replaced on my 2010 Toyota Prius. They quoted 200 for labor (a bit steep but not outrageous) and 350 for the part. It actually took me 45 minutes and the part was $75 at O’Reilly’s, which isn’t even close to the best deal you can get. Nearly quintuple the price is obscene, unless they were using a part straight from Toyota, which I highly doubt

Got recommended to this place by a good friend who used to be a mechanic himself. These guys know what they are doing and are truly honest when it comes to repairs. They wont snag you with blinker fluid or "tool fees"
