Hi everyone, and welcome to Heal My Wheels. This website is the result of several years work by four individuals (and, of course, their fantastic web developers) who want to improve the information out there on the automotive industry and in particular, mechanics across the United States. Having driven used cars since we were in high school, we have spent plenty of time (and money) at auto repair shops and, like many of you out there, have had some great and not-so-great experiences. One thing we did learn is that good mechanics tend to consistently have happy customers, and that after speaking to past customers about particular shops, we were able to make a good decision about whether or not they would do a good job for us. Our experiences over time improved as we spoke to more and more people. The tricky thing was finding people that we could speak to about a shop quickly before we made a decision!

So, here is our solution. We created an online destination where you can find auto mechanics in your local area specializing in the work you need completed (body repair, glass, etc.) You will be able to see ratings from previous customers and also written reviews, which will help you make a smart decision on where to go. Now, here’s the catch. Since we are a new site, we admit that we don’t have reviews just yet. This is where you come in. We need all of you that visit our site to share your honest opinions with the community about your experiences. The more information you share, the better this site. So yes, we are asking you for a favor (if we say “pretty please”, is that good enough?). But we are confident that as others post reviews as well, down the road, the next time you need to use a mechanic, you will hopefully be able to visit us and find some great information on who to choose. It is that simple.

What else do we have to offer? Well, in addition to our database of mechanics and auto service providers, we also have message boards where you can talk to others about repair solutions or news in the car industry, an expert help section where you can get some tips on common car problems and of course, this blog that you are reading right now. We will be blogging about all things that are happening in the automotive business, and we’ll do our best to keep it interesting.

In summary, we are tremendously excited about this opportunity to improve the information out there in the auto mechanic world through letting people speak their minds. So, go ahead and write a review or post a comment!
