The truest test of any company is how it responds when an error is made. Initially they must admit that they made an error. Although I feel certain that an error is of a rare nature at Happy Wallet, they readily expressed real contrition along with acknowledging their mistake. Secondly, their response to correcting that mistake went above and beyond. The owner, service advisor, and #1 technician were all on the same page to get it right and get me happy. They accomplished that goal. Visit Happy Wallet and receive this same customer first attitude.
I had an emergency repair needed on my 2007 Subaru STI. My car had to make a 1000 mile- plus trip by the end of the week and Happy Wallet expedited my repairs in a matter of days and the vehicle performed flawlessly on the long road trip. I will use and recommend them to everyone!
Can’t say enough great things about Happy Wallet and there help when my car broke down!Had my vehicle towed, first thing the next morning I received a call asking what issue with my vehicle was they started to work on it immediately and were able to quickly resolve the problem and have my car back in a short period of time!They were professional, friendly, fast service and very reasonable!Will definitely be being my vehicle back to Happy Wallet whenever it needs any work done!Thank you again!!
Happy Wallet always gives top notch assistance to me every time my vehicles have repair or general maintenance needed. They try to give the most affordable prices while at the same not skimping or letting quality lack in order to do so. Would highly recommend.
My vehicle was towed to this location. I was contacted and informed of work to be done. Car was ready the next day. I did not have transportation to pick up my car so I was sent a car to pick me up. Which I really appreciated
Happy Wallet has done major repair work for me in the past and smaller jobs more recently. Whatever the problem, you can count on a job well done, in a timely manner and, fairly priced! Everyone on board is knowledgeable in all aspects of automotive performance and happy to help explain any questions you may have. Their waiting area is always immaculate and a comfortable spot to wait for your vehicle. It’s always such a nice experience!
First time using Happy Wallet. They fixed my sway bar quickly. I like the way they use texting to send the estimate and let you choose which repairs you want done. Will definitely be back!
I came for an oil change and they gave me a ridiculous estimate stating I needed a new radiator as mine had a leak in it and I needed to leave my car over night. I knew something was up when the receptionist said you know I stayed extra thirty minutes to make you estimate which added up to a few thousand dollars and was almost upset when I declined and asked to get my vehicle. She asked if I could get there immediately as it was after closing when I received the estimate. After getting a second opinion from a mechanic the radiator was missing a cap, not leaking. SCAMMERS
Excellent service 👍 good honest price friendly professional staff
Clean facility, good service. Wait was almost 2 hours for a 10:00 appt
Great customer service! Happy Wallet replaced my starter a few months ago and as a college student I don’t have that much money right now. Their team was very generous with their pricing and made me want to come back if there was ever another issue, which there was... two days ago I noticed an issue with my brakes and they were able to get me in as soon as I called. It only took a couple hours but they were able to replace my front brake pads and rotors, as well as rotate my tires for an upcoming road trip. They were super professional, timely, and very friendly !! 10/10
Gloria was awesome and I enjoyed talking with her. She and her team were professional and provided quality service. It’s not difficult, if you looking for someone to be honest and treat you right, this is where I recommend you bring you car too.Thanks!
I just moved from NY and my car needed Tie rod ends, the outer ones were old and needed to be replaced. We werent sure if they can get it loose, which meant the inner ones and possibly the rack & pinion may have to be replaced. Gloria called me the next day, and told me they were able get the outer ones off.. They were honest, informative and extremely professional and very knowledgeable on my car!!!. I am a person who wants to have a dependable mechanic who I can rely on. Happy Wallet Auto is definitely a mechanic I would recommend highly 👌.!!!!!!
Second time using these nice people. Good job-good value. Will be back.
They were incredibly professional and thorough in every way, got the repairs done quickly and within a more than reasonable price range, and explained exactly what was done. I absolutely would come here again for every repair if I didn’t live in Chicago.
They were very kind and professional. I brought my 3 young boys with me and they helped to make them feel welcomed in the waiting room
I was visiting in Naples from out of state, my car developed shifting issues (manual transmission).the local dealer did not diagnosed and properly repaired the car yet charged me a huge bill.I found Happy Wallet with a search and took my car there. I’m very happy with their work, it was performed quickly and the symptoms disappeared. Their price was $1000 less than the dealer quoted to fix their poor work.I’d go back to Happy Wallet if I need any repairs done to my car, based on my experience, I’d recommend them whole heartedly.
Gloria and her crew are awesome. They are always a pleasure to deal with and you can tell by their level of care that they truly love cars and always have your best interest at heart. I highly recommend them.
Gloria & her team were great! After calling around multiple places I went to Happy Wallet for an inspection. Gloria laid out my options and told me exactly what was wrong with my brakes and the remaining life expectancy. Other places just gave me a price and wanted me to swipe my card - no explanation of services at all. I am very happy with the services I received & will recommend services from Happy Wallet & continue to go here for any future services.
They performed a detailed performance evaluation, shared and discussed the findings. We created the action plan to fix. Very upfront and the overall cost is a great value.
This is the absolute best auto repair shop I have ever been to. They are honest, affordable and do an outstanding job! Don’t take your vehicle anywhere else. Trust Happy Wallet, you won’t regret it! Another thing, beware of the dealerships in this area, they will rip you off! The dealership completely misdiagnosed my car and it was going to cost me thousands. Thank you Happy Wallet!
I am from out of town and was on the last leg of a 1k trip and my alternator died at 3:30 on a Thursday. I had it towed to Happy Wallet as they were closing and they had me on the road again by 12:30 on Friday. Amanda and team were outstanding.
I was so impressed with the customer service from the front desk to the mechanics. This company has gone above and beyond to take care of me and my car. Thank you so much!!!I recommend this company to anybody and everybody, ...Jack thank you for being so amazing!!!Best Customer Service in town.Charity
I love these people. Great communication, knowledgeable, honest and fair. I highly recommend them, after dealing with many different shops I can say there is a HUGE difference in customer service.
Second time here....had an interment starting problem...they were able to have a tech look at it immediately, ordered the part and 40 minutes I was on my way with a new ignition switch which seems to have fixed the problem. Gloria at front desk very nice and helpful.
Jack was very helpful during the entire repair process. The accessible minivan that I use to transport my disabled nephew was inoperable and had to be towed to the repair shop. My insurance company recommended Happy Wallet Quality Auto Repair. Gloria, the owner, called me with an estimate for a new starter and the labor to install it. All work was completed within the estimate amount and Jack graciously personally delivered the minivan back to me at home.
I am a very pleased customer with the service this team provided for me. They kept me informed the whole time they had my vehicle, and also finished the vehicle earlier than expected.
These folks are outstanding! Highly professional and knowledgeable. We decided to bring the car in based only on Google reviews, and it was completely worth it!! Thanks, Gloria and team!
Good service in a friendly and timely manner.Gloria and Amanda are very helpful and accomodating. Happy to know theyre AAA approved too.
I received a card in the mail with a special for an oil change and tire rotation, it was easy to get an appointment and the work went smoothly. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Good, honest, professional, knowledgeable, transparent repair shop. Gave me a list of repairs required in order of urgency. Explained the options available, pros and cons of each, patiently. Good professional workmanship. Thank you Gloria, Jack and the other techs. Keep UP the good work and reputation.
Gloria and Jack did an outstanding repair work on my vehicle. They were both patient, informative, thorough, knowledgeable, and personable. The rear wheeling bearing of my vehicle needed to be replaced immediately so I could drive 1300 miles to return home, up north. The catalytic converter was also clogged. Both repairs were handled promptly and efficiently. I highly recommend Happy Wallet. A thank yo any/all technicians who worked on my automobile.Thank you Gloria.Thank you Jack.Until next time.Cheers.Amir
My starter went bad at work, they got me a quick tow, installed a new starter, and I was on my way, would recommend them to anyone needing any type of car repair in the Naples Fl area 🥰
I was having a problem with my AC not being cold. Honda had indicated that I would need to have almost 2,000.00 of work done. Happy Wallet found a leaky valve, replaced, and I was out for less than $300.00. Thank you!!!!
Had some jacked up mechanics work on our Dodge Charger and completely screwed everything up. Brought it to Gloria and got everything fixed finally! Honest and worked with me when it got overwhelming. Only shop I’ll be using from here on out.
I’ve had mechanical work done so well that I switched my inspection and maintenance work. All were done to perfection and on time. Since we have one car it is very helpful to be able to get a low cost rental from Enterprise when it is needed.
I had a panel replaced for my air conditioning phone etc.I feel the girls in the front or exceptionally professional courteous and helpfulIt took only minutes for them to diagnose my problemThey ordered my part put it in as quickly as possible. Happy to have my air conditioning again
They did a great job was well priced compaired to everyone around them and they had it in and out no problem cars running amazing
The Best! I just moved to Naples. Wanted a local repair shop I could establish a relationship with. Happy Wallet had great reviews and totally lived up to them. FAIR AND HONEST 2 things that the big dealerships seem to have lost. I couldnt be more pleased.
Wonderful people.. have 2010 Chevy Camaro. And I had engine problems. Overheating, cylinder misfires and other complicated problems. They fixed all those problems. And now my car runs better. Would recommend these professionals anytime.
Outstanding automotive repair and service! Enthusiastically recommended. Sets the bar for customer service excellence!
I have come to this repair shop for all the problems with my car and the other cars in my family. There are always so nice and very educated on the services provided. They have always finished our work within one to two days and we appreciate their professional expertise!
Dealership-style service without dealership prices .. blown away by the level of professionalism & care. Fair prices, accommodating schedule and friendly staff. Five stars all the way!!
Great place and people! Very happy with everything they have done to all 3 of my seasoned vehicles.
I had a flat tire due to a nail being stuck in the tread, and Gloria and Jack were amazing throughout the entire process! From accommodating my last-minute appointment to shuttling me to and from their office, to a stellar job on patching my tire, I more than highly recommend Happy Wallet to anyone!Thanks so much for being so kind and courteous, and going above and beyond! Five plus stars to you!! —Summer H
Im glad I chose to bring my truck to Happy Wallet. We brought our truck in to get an oil change, alignment and tires balanced so we would be ready for our vacation the next weekend and pull our travel trailer. The truck had a shake when going over 75mph (reason for balancing). We had been told by other companies over the year that it was just the tires and there was no major problems. Come to find out the tire wall had been separating and was causing the shake. Gloria let us know right away (and was concerned because we have a baby on the way) so we also replaced the tires. So grateful they caught this before our vacation or more importantly before anything major happened (my wife drives the truck most of the time). We will be bringing our truck to Happy Wallet from now on. Thank you for keeping my family safe!
Great place! They kept me informed as the work progressed and I felt they tookgood care of me. Did a great job and dropped off and picked up at my hotel.
Great customer service experience! All the staff is amazing.
I was in Naples on business and my wheel FELL OFF! The fantastic tow truck guy at Georges recommended HWQAR, knowing I was in a pickle time wise, they replaced my ball joints and got me rolling back to Tampa the very next morning, I never missed a beat. Gloria was sweet and if your lucky, you might get a ride in a Ferrari. S. Myers
What a refreshing experience! Check engine light was on. They fixed it and kept in contact of the progress. First time I was there but they will be my goto repair shop going forward.
Best service! I called at 4pm on Tuesday realized I needed my brakes done for a road trip Friday and they got me in! They even had phone chargers in the lobby. Thanks for the great service guys!
Always, pleasant and friendly, very knowledgeable and willing to give me the best service for my money.
Very disappointed. So many reviews and the name create the impression they are a good value. Not so. 30% more expensive than the dealer. They just made the dealer look very good in terms of value.
Their staff was very welcoming, knowledgeable, and amazing! Great customer service while also fixing all my problems in efficient timing. I will definitely recommend anyone whenever they need any fixes and will be coming back in the future!
Absolutely the best in town, good overall communication, fast turn around. Very very satisfied
Happy Wallet has been very honest with us. We are in need of a new radio for one of our trucks and they shared with us on what needs to be done. We are very happy knowing that this business is trustworthy.
Great experience. Will do business again.
Work was done in a professional timely manner. Everyone is very courteous. The shop is really clean. And they do a very good good job
We are retirees visiting Naples for two months having driven down from NH. We thought that we needed new shocks (possibly a $1,500 repair on our model vehicle), and called Happy Wallet to schedule this work. Gloria and her team did an extensive diagnostic review of the entire vehicle, and they explained that we did not need new shocks (or any other significant repairs either). SO ... it became totally apparent that these are extremely honest people who could have easily taken advantage of visitors, but they did not do so. Despite the fact that our situation resulted in very little revenue for them, they paid for an Uber to return us home when we dropped off our vehicle. Then, amazingly, the owner called us that night and made arrangements to pick us up herself the next morning to drive us back to her shop. They just dont make people like this anymore, and we are thankful that we met them. We would strongly encourage anyone reading this to use Happy Wallet for any automotive concerns.P StoneCenter Harbor, NH
Very very nice people to work with. They explain the situation with my problem very carefully and made sure I understood what was going on. After the repair they made certain I was satisfied with the job. Thanks happy wallet for making it easy on my situation.
I had some work done at happy Wallet with this situation of COVID 19 you need to go somewhere you feel comfortable and treated with respect well that is how I was treated I highly recommend it to everyone.
Came across Happy Wallet on the next door app. Such a gem to find bc Gloria was amazing to work with. Honest, friendly and no hidden surprises. Having just relocated here I have finally found a company who stands by their word and really is customer friendly. Focused on my problem and had it taken care of that day. Communication was spot on throughout the day. Customer for life now!!
They where great clean shop 10/10 in and out great power and performance this is the shop for my car
They were SO helpful! Went in not knowing what was wrong with my brakes, and they took detailed pictures and notes letting me know exactly what was wrong/why it needed to be fixed. Made it really easy to understand what each charge was for! So well priced and amazing staff! Would recommend to anyone!
It was my first time at this shop and I came in for several reasons. My main reason was due to my transmission exhibiting slippage. Also had a nail in my tire and slight squeal on my brakes. Shop was very knowledgeable from the mechanic to Gloria, who works up front. They took care of all 3 areas in less than 2 hours (made an appointment online beforehand). Their professionalism and knowledge will turn me into a repeat customer.
I was traveling and in town for a few days experiencing troubles with my air conditioner. A local friend suggested this business. Gloria answered the phone and listened to my plight and scheduled an appt for the same day. The mechanic did the repair and saved the day! This business was very helpful and I would highly suggest them if you are in need of repairs.
I needed a new right axle. They not only did a fantastic job but they paid for my Uber to go home and get back to get my car. Theyre fantastic! They do great work!
Would highly recommend Happy Wallet. Gloria was professional and very informative. I called 1st thing in the morning and they were able to squeeze me in, completed all my work the same day and stayed late to complete .
Quick, Friendly, Professional. I reccomend using Happy Wallet to anyone looking for a local business that exceeds expectations.
Found “Happy Wallet” on google thru their wonderful reviews and they sure didn’t let me down. Jay welcomed my car in gave me a breakdown of what’s wrong with my car and most importantly it wasn’t all about the money. I definitely found a great place to work on my car if it needs some tender love and care. Thanks again.
5Star Quality Auto Repair! Great Staff and Service! Gloria really helped me out when my Saab Aero had a problem with the Transmission not shifting..I was really nervous that it was going to need a rebuild due to the high mileage. But it was just a faulty sensor and Gloria also had her Mechanic flush and replace the fluids. Ive been using Happy Wallet since the 90s. (Saabs, Passats, Porsches, Audi) When BigJim Washburn was the owner. I think hed be proud of the work Happy Wallet continues to provide its customers. Id recommend Happy Wallet to everyone. Best in Naples.
First time at Happy Wallet! Profesional team and very helpful with details. My vehicle had an oil leak in both valve cover gaskets, they were replaced in timely manner. Full inspection for free with detailed info. Highly recommended!
First time that my 2009 Acura has ever needed skilled repairs, Jay and Gloria scheduled me right in and were able to troubleshoot the issue with the A/C. Discovered a combination of a faulty relay and low refrigerant, not easy to determine when two separate elements are responsible. Did a superb and quick repair and now A/C putting out better than ever cooling! Strongly recommend Happy Wallet for any repairs.
I went to get my transmission serviced because the main input shaft bearing was sounding worn. They told me they’d take a look. I was told they’d inspect the transmission. When they called back they said my flywheel was “all the colors it shouldn’t be” and that I’d need a clutch replacement too. They wouldn’t allow me to use any aftermarket parts, so my flywheel (without installation fees) ended up costing me $1400. I get it back, and the first thing I hear when I turn the key is the sound of the still worn input shaft bearing. Either they failed to listen to the customer and check the issue I said the car was having, or they didn’t care to fix it. If I wasn’t moving to a different state the next day I would’ve told them to redo it for free, but I didn’t have the option. Not only did I spend thousands of dollars more than I needed to on this kind of work, they didn’t even fix the issue I was having in the first place.
Great service, great prices, honest and reliable.
Ive been bringing my vehicles to Happy Wallet for over 10yrs. Saabs, Porsche, VWs. Ive always been treated well and the prices are better than anything Ive found locally. Although Jim Washburn has retired, the new owner Gloria is continuing the tradition of quality auto repair at an affordable price. They also have gone HighTech with estimates and recommendations sent as text messages.I recommend Happy Wallet to anyone seeking Friendly Quality Service.
HWQAR was a friendly group and honest and quite efficient. They fixed everything I asked for and when diagnosing my power steering problem, after replacing a worn high pressure hose, they found a hairline leak in the pump. The shop manager informed me much of the leakage has stopped, but you are going to need a new pump because of the leak. I will go back again and recommend this business to others.
Amazing customer service. Gloria was a pleasure to work with in all aspects. Car is running like new after much work that was needed. Will be returning for every issue from here on it!
Friendly, efficient and professional.Got me in the same day and back on the road.Thanks for the great service!Jay
They are a fast and friendly business their staff is amazing they let me know the whole process of what they needed to do to fix my a/c and worked with me to solve the problem. I would definitely recommend Happy Wallet Quality Auto Repair!
Happy Wallet has superb service and personnel. They worked with my extended warranty company without any issues and completed everything while keeping me informed. Definitely felt like my best interest and satisfaction were at the forefront. I definitely recommend Happy Wallet. They truly are an all around great business!
Quoted $450 for a shifter bushing. Called airport Kia and they are replacing it for $210 with labor. Gloria the owner was polite but dismissive. Certainly will not be back.
Ive had this truck for 3 years without a problem whatsoever. I was planning to move across the country and wanted to get it checked as I was going to be hauling a trailer. Sure enough, they find an issue with the control arm and the tires are old among other things. I tell them Im gonna think about it and that same day, drive to Miami for a hitch. Coincidentally, upon arriving to Miami, I start hearing a loud noise every time I turn the wheel. I call upset and they say that its what they had told me the problem was.Now I feel forced to pay to get this fixed and (might as well I guess) get tires. I figured, they are the professionals so they might be right. I come to pick it up and they tell me I should be good with new control arms, ball joints and new tires. Of course, Im 6-7 hours on my trip and it starts making the exact same noise it did before they replaced all of that! I called and left a message that someone better call me back but no one ever does.Ill just say this, dont go here unless you can bring your vehicle back. Theyd probably just tell me I need to replace a whole other part!
Amazing staff, fast service and they will make sure your car is fixed if it has issues. They care about the customer more than the money. They will let you know if you need your breaks done now or if it can wait, same with all the other parts you may have issues with. They never let me down.
I am a happy customer, great work everytime.
Total car inspection because I was buying a 2015 Toyota Highlander from a private owner. Very pleased
They got me in at last minute and the service was super quick! I got recommended and I would recommend them for any car service!! They’re super nice too. During the pandemic, I also saw everyone wearing a mask and the place looked clean. 10/10
I have taken my current and previous car into this shop and they always fix my issue and are fair with their prices. I have made the mistake of taking my car to different service centers and always end up coming back to Happy Wallet because they are reliable.
Took me in right away. They were very friendly and quoted me the best price for the job! The office was super clean and sanitized which was very important to me at this time. I will definitely be back for future work~
Since new owner both good mechanics left new owners slow to operate only one star
They said change their name to empty wallet Empty wallet they try to charge me over $1,000 for a throttle body When Tire Choice only wanted for hundred bucks
Always the best value in town.
Ive been coming to Happy Wallet for 7 years. The staff is always polite and professional. Never had a problem with service or pricing.Trust this company 100%. Jim knows what hes doing.....Gloria is a nice addition to this crew. Would always recommend Happy Wallet!
Good prices and good service👍
Complex and time consuming repair, air injection system. All good and done in a timely fashion. Thx to Happy Wallet.
Gloria, Jay and the rest of the team are great to deal with. They are always able to work with my schedule and do a quality job. I won’t go anywhere else in the Naples area.
Great auto shop. Professional, great value and excellent communication. I was looking for a reliable auto shop in Naples. Now I have one.
After a month of not being able to drive my car and having taken it to many other mechanics. My friend recommended I take it to Happy Wallet. My car was fixed in no time and it has not had problems since.
Had the pleasure of dealing with Gloria & her staff last week for some vehicle diagnostics and repairs. All repairs were done in a exceptionally timely fashion & I left totally satisfied with the work done and the invoiced amount, which I felt was totally fair. This is my second visit over the past few years to Happy Wallet and I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for a vehicle repair facility in Naples Fl. Oh & by the way, Gloria arranged for a transport home when I dropped my vehicle. Totally unexpected but much appreciated. Thanks Gloria.
I have been using happy wallet for the past five years. The quality of their work some and ship is bar none and they explain every detail. Gloria is extremely knowledgeable as are the technicians. I wholeheartedly recommend using them for your car maintenance needs!
