Chris was friendly and professional. He got the job done in a timely manner for a reasonable price. What more could you ask for? Would recommend. Service: General repairs & maintenance

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

As always, my car was returned to me driving like new! Today was an ac repair and both rear shock replacements. The car was done in less than 2 hours, returned to me clean, and the pricing was very fair. I was a bit taken aback when I read some of the negative reviews on this place. Having been a customer for 3 years now, I have had nothing but positive experiences! I highly recommend this mechanic!

When my Jeep was having issues and broke down near Bayleaf, I took it there for an initial diagnosis. While I ultimately went with my usual mechanic to do the repairs, I was very impressed with Chris's service, attention to detail and integrity. If I did not have a mechanic closer to my home, I would definitely consider using Bayleaf for everything.

Chris is really a great guy. Very skilled in all auto repair needs. I'm a certified auto mechanic. When I get stumped I go to Bayleaf. I usually use them for annual inspection. He is fast and thorough. A far better experience than jiffy lubes or the dealership. Very fair prices too

Chris is a great, trustworthy guy. I just moved into the area, and when I noticed a bad leak from my oil, my family recommended me to him as the "most honest mechanic around." He ended up solving the issues from my previous mechanic (a very well-known, commercial location.) AND helped negotiate the payment from the company that caused the issues. I was very impressed, and am glad to have found my new "home" shop!

Bayleaf tire & auto was a wonderful shop years ago. We had horrible experiences under its new management. They mis-diagnosed the problem (broken struts) and charged us $900 for fixing what didn't need fixing. Furthermore, Chris didn't offer to return the money when I had to bring the car back to them the next day after it became apparent they didn't do the repair needed. Never again will I bring my cars to them. I recommend you go elsewhere.

Took 4 days to change a brake line "waiting on parts". More like understaffed. Instead of communicating with me, he took it upon himself to keep the vehicle without any updates. No brake line repair should take more than two days. Too bad because Chris the owner is actually a nice guy just not a good business man. Will not be taking any more of our commercial vehicles there. Steer clear of this establishment for a more devoted and reliable auto shop and one with better communication. Had to add this: after we finally got our Ford SUV back, the amateur mechanics left air in the passenger brake line. Brake Line 101 is never leave air in the brake line.

Vehicle pulled hard right upon applying brakes. Had to get this fixed by an actual mechanic. Lastly, Joe and Linda were the previous owners of Bayleaf Tire and Auto. They sold somewhere around 2010. Chris is the new owner.
