These mechanics don't know what they are doing, the place is super expensive, they take a lot of time and can't do much more than inspection or oil change or minor repairs. My brother who just moved to the area was without a vehicle for good 5 weeks while it was being worked on at 4 separate occasions fixing the engine, transmission and some other minor items spend close to $11,000 on his Toyota Tundra 2006.

He just picked up his truck a few days ago for the 4th time and the next morning the truck starts with a cloudy smoke when started. As the smoke was part of the problem we honestly don't know what to do as they took his money but did not solve one of his main problems even though the 4th visit was specific to resolve the unresolved smoking issue. I would love to add a video to demonstrate how bad it is but Yelp only allows attaching pictures. After so many times they have wasted so much of his time and money all we can do is advise others to stay away.

I've been going to Bayleaf for years now and l can attest to their great work. They are honest and fair, efficient and friendly, but professional. The crew is fast and expert, and Chris is incredibly helpful and easy to deal with. They never load me up with a huge list of unnecessary items to be done, they tell me what l need, then suggest other things that might need looking at and let me choose how much l want done.

I feel very secure in trusting my vehicles to them, and they've kept me safely on the road for several years. It's such a blessing to have a local, family- owned auto shop that l can rely on for both regular Makena as well as the occasional emergency. Chris even helps me when l travel out of state when issues have arisen, his advice and knowledge are always spot on. Bayleaf is a the very best shop I've ever had and l will continue counting on their great work and friendly professionalism for as long as l drive. Mark N Jensen Wake Forest
