About
For over 30 years, Wasp Automotive has been the Triangle’s trusted specialist for the precision care of Japanese vehicles.
Located in Durham, we are proud to serve drivers from Raleigh, Cary, and the surrounding communities who seek expert service for their Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Subaru, or Mazda.
Our team brings over 75 years of combined experience, which means accurate diagnostics, thoughtful repairs, and fewer surprises along the way.
Whether you’re here for routine maintenance or a more involved repair, our goal is the same: to keep you safe, confident, and comfortable every time you drive away.
We believe good customer service still matters. That’s why we take the time to explain what your car needs, answer your questions honestly, and stand behind the work we do.
Most services include 3-year warranty protection, as well as roadside assistance and trip interruption coverage, so you’re supported even after you leave our shop.
And with hundreds of 5-star Google reviews, our customers’ experiences reflect the care we put into every visit.
If it drives you,
it drives us too!
WASP Name
Our name is a tribute to the Hudson Wasp—a classic of 1950s American automotive engineering. While its "big brother," the Hudson Hornet (the inspiration for our shop’s mascot), was famous for its power and dominance on the race track, the Wasp was designed for something equally vital: reliability, common sense, and enduring quality.
We chose to carry this name forward because it represents the balance we bring to every repair. Like the legendary Hudson lineup, Wasp Automotive is built on high-integrity service and a deep-seated love for the craft.
For us, the Wasp name is more than just a nod to the past; it is our commitment to treating every customer with the honesty, expertise, and respect they deserve.
