Built by mechanics who got tired of the industry.
Michiana Auto Werks was founded in 2026 by two ASE-certified technicians who spent a decade at chain shops and dealerships watching customers get sold repairs they didn't need. We opened our doors with one rule: show the customer the problem before quoting the fix.
Twelve years and thousands of satisfied customers later, we're the shop drivers across Michiana trust — because we tell the truth, do the work right, and stand behind everything with a real warranty.
Meet the technicians.
