DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN!…read more On 10/3/25, my husband paid Lee Wiles / Common Vision LLC $1,020 (plus a $281 tip) for axle and brake repair. Less than 24 hours later, the car broke down in a dangerous way. AAA confirmed the repair was unsafe and improperly done, and another certified mechanic verified this. The axle came out and nearly caused a serious accident. When I contacted him, instead of refunding the payment, he admitted in text messages that "the axle came out" but refused to return the money. He also tried to deflect responsibility by making inappropriate comments about race and insisted on "fixing" it again -- despite my clear statements that I no longer trusted him after such unsafe work. I have full documentation: receipt, CashApp payment, AAA confirmation, mechanic statement, and text messages from his phone. This needs to be on record to prevent him from scamming and endangering others. He is also not listed with the BBB as a registered business -- but I have filed a complaint so there will now be a record. If he scammed you too, REPORT HIM. Businesses that operate this way do not last. Add On: It's not harassment to ask for my money back after a repair failed in less than 24 hours and almost caused an accident. AAA confirmed the axle came out because of improper work, and a certified mechanic verified this. I provided proof: receipt, CashApp payment, and text messages where Mr. Wiles himself admitted "the axle came out." I made it very clear that I would not allow him to touch my car again after such an unsafe repair. At that point, the only responsible action was to issue a refund. Instead, he refused, deflected responsibility, and made inappropriate comments about race. This is not about being "nice" or "polite." It's about safety, integrity, and accountability. I stand by my review and documentation. Others deserve to know what happened so they can protect themselves. DO NOT TRUST HIM!!

RE: Common Vision. Lee is the kind of mechanic who is passionate about diagnosing car problems and…read morefinding solutions. I found him here on Yelp and hired him for a PPI to look at a 2003 Tiburon. A family member is an enthusiast for these old cars which they wanted to make into a "hot hatch". I met Lee at the dealer, which was a long drive to the dealer for both of us. And of course the car was in a back lot 3 or 4 rows deep. So while waiting for the dealer to find the car and bring it to the front, Lee noticed some teenagers who were there to look at a Civic SI. One of them was checking for rust by knocking his knuckles on the car body. Lee smiled at this and went over to chat with them and before you know it, he was reviewing the car with them, explaining how you really check for rust, opened the hood and began digging into how to tell if this Civic was running well or not. He looks underneath the car by getting on the ground and actually looking. I noticed all the other guys, both the dealer guys and the buyers, were hesitant to do this. I think they were intimidated because he obviously knew much more about engines than they did. I was impressed that Lee has the instincts of an educator. He really wants to not just evaluate the car but to teach others how to examine a car. Eventually the Tiburon appears and then Lee quickly went through his process. He focuses on the engine and doesn't move on from that until all issues are covered. In this case, he zeroed in immediately on the coolant system. It wasn't holding pressure. I watched as he carefully tested and retested and showed the dealer technician that the system was bad and that it was leaking. We had already been there for an hour and a half so it was decided that the dealer would pull a hose from another car ( the dealer was close to a salvage yard) and repair it and then Lee would return to test it again. In the end, even the dealer gave up on this car, he didn't complete any repair and we moved on. But I will have Lee examine any car we are considering. He is an excellent mechanic, fair and honest.

BEWARE: Parkertown Car Care…read more I brought my jeep in for an alignment and had gear lube leaking from the front axle. I was quoted $750-$800 for the job including replacing a u-joint as they recommended. After being pushed off each day, I finally got my jeep back a week later "fixed and riding well". I went to pickup and was hit with an $1,100 bill as they replaced the other u-joint as well. I walk out to my jeep and one of my hub caps is missing, Nick claims it somehow was already missing a bolt when I brought it in and it's only secured with two bolts so he left it in the cab (not sure how it would've been attached with one bolt missing when I dropped it off, but whatever it's one bolt) 2 minutes into my drive home, the steering wheel is shaking hard and I thought ok, I have to bring it back to readjust the alignment. I go out to my jeep the next morning and there's gear oil on my driveway leaking from the same spot as when I first dropped it off. At this point, I realize the shop is likely incompetent for this type of repair and I start worrying what other bolts/screws are missing that I can't see. The opposite hub cap has mismatched bolts, and the back hub was tightened too much and cracked. I go back to the shop and offer to pay for the u-joints parts + labor and any parts/oil they used to "fix" my leak but request my money back for the labor that went into a repair that is no better than when I first dropped it off. I no longer trust their competence in opening my jeep back up. Nick tells me the owner is off in the Bahamas and won't check his phone for another week, so I'm out of a car until then unless I'd like him to try and fix it again. Nick is a really nice guy, but I think he bit off more than he could chew with the repair. I wish they would've told me that from the start, or owned up to providing poor workmanship. I'm now out $1,100 and have to pay another shop for all of the same repairs. I'm sure they could handle an oil change, but anything more than that I would not advise bringing your vehicle here.
