Just relocated to Rockford and was referred to Powders by a coworker who has been taking their…read morevehicles there for over 20 years. Called on a Friday, spoke with the Owner, Mike. He was very kind and courteous and took time to listen. I brought in our van at 7am on Monday, when they first open and he took time to better understand the situation and promised a phone call follow up. About 845 he called to give me four options on how to fix it. I never felt pressured to handle it a certain way and it was obvious he is there to provide great customer service. I approved the work and had the van back at the end of the day. So far, so good. Price was fair for the amount of work that was done, and certainly beats anything you would pay at a dealer. Turns out I had some work done at a dealer back in June and they didn't catch something that Powders did. Very happy to have found a great shop this quickly upon arriving in Rockford.

They fixed it, but that was overall an expensive job to have it end in a brake failure. 1 star.

We were referred to this place by a friend who told us of their phenomenal work and and even more phenomenal prices. We needed our front brakes done. We dropped off the car in the morning and they called us around two o'clock to tell us it was ready. I had forgotten to tell them I needed a tire plugged. When we got there they hadn't finished the plugging work because the guy I talked to on the phone was out to lunch. But the man we talked to said no problem he would do it for us. Fifteen minutes later I have a plugged tire and he DID NOT CHARGE me. Excellent, very excellent. All-in-all our tire expenditures were around $105. Not bad. Not bad at all. I will definitely be bringing my car here in the future. I would have been hesitant to come if it had not been recommended here by a trusted friend. It doesn't look like much on the outside but don't be fooled or judge too quickly. You will surely have quality work.

I don't give bad reviews without giving a shop a chance to make things right. I've given Wick…read moreAutomotive a couple of chances, after spending $8200.00 to have the engine re-sealed on my Cadillac Deville, with a Northstar V-8. There is a permanent fix to the dreaded Northstar leaking problem. Wick is one of the few shops in the Tri-State area, that does that work. So, on February 18, 2026, I drove 90 miles to have them do the work. They also replaced the coolant pump. When I picked up the car on April 23, 2026, (More than 2 months in the shop), the check engine light was on. The check engine light was NOT on when I brought the car in. They replaced an Oxygen sensor (add $62.00 to the bill). It didn't fix the car. (Nor, did they refund the $62.00). After driving 90 miles back home, I got a low coolant message on the dash. the coolant level had dropped. I called Jason, & was told that it was probably an "Air Pocket" in the cooling system, & to add coolant. I'm sorry, but after spending $8200.00, HOW IS THIS "My problem"??? You don't release the car until it's RIGHT!!! I brought the car back on August 12, 2026 because it was misfiring badly. The spark plug wells had filled with oil, causing the ignition coils to short to ground, (essentially killing the spark). The spark plug well seals were NOT replaced, which is part of replacing the valve cover gaskets part of the $8200.00 job they were paid to do! They told me I needed new ignition coils, & said my valve covers were "warped". They also replaced the coolant pump, a second time, because they said it was leaking. At this point, I'd had enough. My ignition coils are brand new. This is the part, where I divulge the fact that I'm a retired Cadillac technician, & can tell they're blowing smoke up my *ss! They said they'll fix it "JUST THIS ONE TIME"! (Only fair, since they didn't fix it the first time!!!!) To add insult to injury, the mechanic wanted to charge me $20 for gas (Road testing). I was 3 months without my car, & the gas I burned driving back & forth for a COMEBACK that never should've happened, is a LOT more than $20!!!! I gave them a couple of opportunities to make this right. The final "nail in the coffin" I picked up the car, & there was a gash in my leather heated steering wheel, & grease on the inside A-pillar!! this car has been kept meticulously clean, I is my pride & joy. They chose the "LOW road" & basically asked me to "Not come back", saying there are other TECHNET shops, much closer to me. Well gentlemen, I WON'T be back! A shop has to be pretty bad, to earn a bad review from me. I would recommend avoiding Wick Automotive. To wick Automotive, as a technician myself, I can only say: "Integrity is the one thing, that NOBODY can take from you". (You have to GIVE that away!).

My experience with this company is definitely not a good one. First of all I was told it would be 2…read morepossible 3 weeks to fix why my car was fuel starved. It turned out to but just over 2 months of them having my car. I never harrassed with calls checking on it. Only calls made were because the employee lied and said he was "just finishing up rewiring the car back and he would call once he finished road test" and then poof no calls no nothing. My car sounded perfectly fine it just was starved of fuel and sputtered a bit. Now after getting it back it sounds like a diesal truck and smokes to high hell(I have a video 2 weeks before storing in my garage for winter of it running and doesnt sound like it does now nor did it ever smoke.. it did leak trans fluid from bullet but I told them about that). I was charged just over $1500 for something I was told should have been less than half that. Drove the car from their shop then literally got 2 blocks from home and she died. Was told it needed gas before I left so I had the person that followed me get me 5 gallons and tried to fire it up again and she knocks like a S.O.B. and wouldn't stay going. I had to get towed home. I took car to different shop and showed them the paperwork I got from this place and they just laughed at me and said you paid all that for this quality of work and they almost didn't want to work behind them but told me he would look at it when he got time and we could go from there. I definitely feel like they got over on me with the time frame they had the car and the work that was done. Not 1 time during this whole ordeal did they communicate ANYTHING to me just a bunch of we won't have time to finish today and it wil be done tomorrow which were all lies. The car is over 50yrs old and doesn't have much wiring to deal with but that seemed like his go to to stretch things out and just rob me of my hard earned money. Not happy at all with what was done and would never return nor recommend this place for anything vehicle related. He was pushing me to just LS swap the motor after I got upset for how long it's taking and for what they didn't do yet. It literally took him 6wks bedore tell me after I pulled up that they may need to drop gad tank and look inside WOWZERS. MOST would say why didn't I just take car from them when they were acting funny and my response is I already had time and some labor cost(money) invested and I hoped that they would do what they say they would but I was EXTREMELY wrong on that and it was a $1555 mistake. They literally removed old electronic fuel pump and added new one that they screwed and bolted to my tank with AN fitting and a regulator was added in bay area as well with new lines and thats it. 12hrs of labor cost but about $100 in parts and 2+ months of wasted time. That didn't and doesn't sit right with me at all. USE THEM AT YOUR OWN RISK
