Road Keepers Started Here — And It’s Growing Nationwide

What began inside one small shop in Wausau has grown into a nationwide network of trusted mechanics, volunteers, and community leaders working together to keep families safe, working, and moving. The movement is expanding — and it all started right here.

The Shop That Fixes Cars — And Takes Care of People

Vaughn’s Northwest Auto Repair is the founding chapter of Road Keepers — the place where a small hometown shop sparked a nationwide movement dedicated to keeping families safe, working, and moving. What started as one mechanic helping one family at a time has grown into a network of trusted shops and volunteers who believe no one should face a vehicle crisis alone.

Here, we diagnose the real problem — not just the code. We explain every step clearly, honestly, and without pressure. And we repair it right the first time, because your safety, your livelihood, and your peace of mind matter.

This is more than auto repair. This is where compassion meets craftsmanship, where community meets clarity, and where every repair fuels a mission built on dignity and trust.

Car Trouble? We’re Here for You.

Tell us what happened, and we’ll walk with you step‑by‑step until you’re safely back on the road. Whether you’re dealing with a sudden breakdown, a warning light that won’t turn off, a strange noise you can’t diagnose, or a repair you simply can’t afford right now — you’re not alone.

We listen first. We explain everything clearly. And we help you understand what’s urgent, what can wait, and what options you have. Our goal is to take the fear, confusion, and pressure out of car trouble so you can breathe again, make confident decisions, and get back to your life with dignity and peace of mind.

No judgment. No upsells. No surprises. Just real help from real people who care about keeping you and your family moving.
