Wading River Auto & Discount Tire in
Wading River (NY)

These guys are consistently honest and on point. Just had new tires installed on my Jeep, has never driven so well!

I love this mechanic shop. They worked on my car and my car is like new again. I really appreciate the hard work they did to get my car and got it and running condition. The price is all so affordable. Definitely will be using them as my mechanic from now on. Highly recommend Wading River auto and discount tire

When my son came home from college for the weekend, he needed an inspection and new tires to pass. I called several places, but none were available. Then I called John. Even though he was fully booked, he made time for my son. The service was excellent, and the tire prices were great.

Technician Larry immediately came to my assistance even though the shop was closing in an hour, assessed my small screw in tire and not leaking situation with courtesy and professionalism. I drove away satisfied, feeling like a valued customer.

Came out here to camp at Wildwood and just as we got to our camp spot, we ran something over and could hear the air running out. Put the spare on & drive here to se if they could help out. The mechanic stopped everything he was doing and plugged our tire. Just like that, we were in and out. Such nice guys too. Appreciate the speed and price!! Helped get this little weekend getaway back on track in no time at all! Thank you!

Had my brakes done there once but they were making a rubbing sound for months after. Also had tires replaced on the wife's car which seemed ok. It’s down the road from my house so I go there often enough that I know the owners name and a bit about his family. Reason for the three stars is that I asked John(the owner) if I could borrow a torque wrench to tighten a few bolts on my trailer hitch. I said I’d use it in his parking lot and it would take five minutes tops. Said he couldn’t do. Seriously? I said I’d throw him a couple of bucks for his trouble and he said nope. Sorry. I’m not paying you 25-50 bucks to tighten a couple of bolts. He also charged me $20 to plug a spare tire that was already off the vehicle. Please! There was nothing malicious about my review. I gave three stars. Relax with the lies. I was far from irate. Made no such demands. Didn’t even elevate my voice a decibel. Just was disappointed. If I was irate I would’ve given you no stars. I’ll add some factual info to my review since he wants to embellish. When I asked him to do the brakes, I asked for rotors to be replaced as well. He couldn’t get the rotors so he cut them without my permission. After going back to him with the rubbing sound, he replaced the pads. The result was was the same rubbing sound and vibration. The point of my review had very little with the brakes though. I asked you to borrow a torque wrench after being a fairly steady customer for a couple of years. You could have offered to do it for a couple of bucks for all I care. I wasn’t asking to put my car on your lift. I ended up going to Advance and they let me borrow it no charge. Took me all of 3 minutes.

John(owner)been my mechanic for around 10 years. Never had a problem, always been honest and trustworthy unlike other shops that I have dealt with.

So grateful to find John and his garage. He is a standup guy and great mechanic. He is honest, reliable, quick and affordable! What more could you ask for?! I’ve taken a foreign car and a domestic car to him with problems. He assessed and made the correct repairs, quickly and affordably. I’m thrilled to have found him and his staff. He’s stuck with me now!

John and Larry are the absolute best! Honest - will never do work that is not necessary, and the job is always done right the first time! Will not bring my cars anywhere else!!!

John has been my mechanic since 2019. I have had everything from normal oil changes, brakes, to my getting my car with a blown engine towed to his shop, and each time he has been fair and honest. My family now goes there and I recommend him anytime someone in our local FB group asks for a mechanic. If you're looking for an honest shop with great pricing, this is the place!

John and his team in Wading River have been taking care of our family’s cars for years. He is always honest about what needs taking care of and reasonable in his approach to helping us make sure we stay safe on the road. He knows all of his recurring customers by name and takes the time to talk you through the process and steps they plan to take in working on your car and why certain work needs to be done. If you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy mechanic, John and his team are one in a million.

I've been going to Wading River Auto for few years now and always had excellent experience there. John and all his staff are kind, helpful and pleasure to deal with. Whenever I needed something for my car, they've made sure to take me as soon as possible. I usually have my daughter with me and they make sure my car is in and out quickly so I don't have to wait with her too long. Although we don't live too close and I have plenty other places around, it's worth to drive to Wading River to know that I'll get the best service for my car, professional approach, and fair and reasonable price. 100% recommend this place!

I’ve been having my car serviced here for years and time and again they have made sure to help with whatever repairs my car has needed. Always kind and helpful, I highly recommend their services!

I have been taking my vehicles to Wading River Auto for the past 5 years. John is always honest and cares about the community. I highly recommend!!

Bring your own tires and rims off the truck still wants 65 to swap em lol Bell port tire 25 a piece I know we’re to go now thank you bellport tires highly recommend

John, not the owner, was wonderful. I needed to get an inspection- I was scheduled for the first appointment. John took me right away. I had never been there before, but went on a recommendation. I was very happy with the service- I will definitely be back.

John at wading river auto has been helping me with all my cars since high school. Any issue is always fixed and John goes above and beyond to make it a great experience. Yesterday I had a flat tire a block away from John on way to work and he fixed it and I wasn’t even late to work! The service and quality here is unmatched and I wouldn’t bring my car anywhere else

I’ve been using wading river auto and tire for several year and can’t say enough about how accommodating, honest and professional John and his staff are. I’ve had several instances where I brought my truck in for an issue I couldn’t resolve and John and his staff diagnosed the problem and instead of giving one option and charging me a fortune he gave me options and saved me from over the top expenses. This is the only place I go now for my vehicles and very highly recommend them!!!

Honest, hard working, salt of the earth auto mechanics. They've helped me out so many times and done honest good work I can't say enough about these guys. As busy as they are they always try their best to fit you in and get you out even though sometimes people can be annoying in a world of instant gratification and things getting done instantly. It's not the same with cars. When you want something done right it should never be rushed. They are efficient and they do great work. Highly recommend Wading River Auto.

Finding out on a busy Saturday morning that you have a giant screw in your almost-deflated tire is not the best way to start the weekend. Thank you to the guys at Wading River Auto & Discount Tire for fitting my repair in and getting my car back to me in a short time. I’m very appreciative!

I have been going to John for a few years now, he has always been honest and fair. Very nice staff, easy to work with scheduling and pickup. Id recommend to anyone looking for a great auto shop!

Needed tires, my husband usually takes care of that for me, but he is in the hospital so I was on my own....Jon and the other men were so helpful, and kind. Got my tires and I'm very happy...I recommend this place hands down.

Most pleasant staff. Very easy to make appointments and the work is done at a reasonable price. I would definitely recommend this business for any auto work.

We started taking our vehicles to Jon when he was in Rocky Point and still trust our them with him and his top notch crew! Never disappointed with WR Auto!

These guys are great! It was after hours and we were on our way for a family vacation road trip and got a nail in our tire. They were technically closed for about an hour by the time we got there. We asked if they could help. They dropped what they were doing and came right out. They patched the tire and checked pressure in all other tires before sending us on our way. Saved the day. True integrity. Thank you!

Jon IS that "so hard to find a good mechanic" auto mechanic! I'm so glad a friend told me about Jon's shop. I've been going there for over 5-yrs and it's always a top draw experience! Congratulation on the *NEW* location! Now this IS a better, Better Auto experience! david a

First off let me start off saying the Owner John is a really good and very honest guy and will do anything he could to help you out. Very good mechanic and tire shop, I can’t say how much John helped me out today by stopping what he was doing to fix my 2 flat tires on my 2 cars and yes I had flats on both of my cars in the same day was a very bad day but John helped me out big time, great guy can’t express that enough a Not to mention my wife had went to him by herself at first and any other person would of taken advantage thinking she’s a women not knowing anything and ripping her off but not him he was very nice and made her feel very comfortable! Trying to help her out as much as he could. I definitely recommend him for any mechanic and tire needs A+++++++++++ all around Thanks again John you have my business for life.
