North and South Carolina Auto Repair

Honestly I never take the time to rate anything on Yelp, but Woodies is the kind of place that deserves the praise. I recommend Woodies to everyone I know. I absolutely love this shop and have had only amazing experiences. Before moving to Charlotte I had never had a positive experience with any mechanic. I always felt talked down to, not taken care of and honestly half the time lied to. The staff at Woodies goes out of their way to make the experience welcoming and the service that they provide is fantastic. Not only is it the most enjoyable experience you can have when having to have a car in the shop (their lovely waiting room, shuttle service, communication, flexibility, I could go on for days), you know that you do not have to worry when you leave with your car that you received anything less than their full effort and expertise. They go out of your way to get all of your issues resolved and are truly looking out for you. I cannot express enough how much I love these guys. I feel genuinely safer because of getting my car serviced here. This place is where you want to take your car and your trust. I am living three hours away for the summer and I still came back to Charlotte just so that I could have my car taken care of at Woodies! Thank you all for changing my entire experience of auto shops, you have my business for the long haul!

I brought my car here for an inspection, and they failed it and claimed I needed an additional $1000 worth of work; my struts and engine mount specifically. I've since taken my car to Bill Jarrell's Automotive on Woodlawn and Old Pineville. They were honest, and the issues Woodie's claimed my car had, they didn't see at all. The strange sound my car was making was something else entirely, and Bill Jarrell's fixed it within the day, and for only $300. If you're looking for an honest mechanic in town, go to Bill Jarrell's—or at least, not to Woodie's!

I've switched over to Woody's from my previous mechanic. Yes, Woody's is slightly more expensive than Jed who's fixing cars out in his backyard, but Woody's takes care of me every time. They have always fixed my car on time. Sometimes, they can fix it immediately with no wait. The waiting rooms have wifi, tv, coffee, etc. It's much nicer than any waiting room I've ever seen at a mechanic shop. Staff is always friendly. They are good at explaining what needs to be done and what can wait. My previous mechanic was a worrier and always wanted me to get everything done immediately. Highly recommend if you are willing to play slightly more for a smooth, painless experience. There is one time in particular where I was actually surprised at how cheap the bill was. Not saying that happens every time, but I do appreciate that they keep the costs down when they can. As of this writing, there are two negative reviews for this location. I'm not saying that they didn't have a subpar experience, I just wanted to weigh in to say that I, personally, have never had a negative experience with Woody's. The only reason I didn't give them a five star review is that they can be more expensive than some other places. (Wouldn't we all love cheaper mechanic bills?)

No one likes going to the mechanic when their car is acting up. It's like going to the doctor when you have a mystery pain. You always expect horrible news and expensive bills. Woodie's made an unpleasant process extremely smooth and, dare I say, painless. My car decided to stop working one beautiful Sunday morning. A friend swung by to jump it and it still refused to budge. Fearing the worse (a bad alternator) I looked up mechanics in the area. This chain had good reviews and there was one around the corner, so I decided to give them a try. They were nice over the phone and just as nice in person. Even though I didn't have an appointment (and it was near closing time) they were able to fit me in. The waiting room in this place was surprisingly nice. Clean, comfortable, and it had free soda, coffee, and water. They found the problem (bad battery cable) and fixed it for a reasonable price. I didn't feel gouged by labor or parts costs. I hope I don't have to return to them anytime soon (just like the doctor's office), but if I do I feel very comfortable having them take care of the repairs.

VERY PROMPT VERY HONEST GREAT KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF

Greg.one if the technicians isworth his weight in gold.thank you.

I already have recommended to others. Everything about the experience was terrific. My problem had been an intermittent problem and they were able to locate immediately. These guys are great.

My car was repaired here after a major accident. They did an outstanding job on my car and connecting with the insurance company . I love the results and the costumer service. Recommended in Charlotte.

I really appreciate you guys! I work directly across the street from you at 525 N Tryon, and I love that I can count on Woodie's to be quick, honest, hardworking, friendly, and always willing to fit me in! Some auto shops don't treat people well if they don't drive a high end vehicle, but I am always given great, speedy, and polite service! I've trusted you guys for 3 years so far, and will continue to do so!
