Awesome place! Went for an inspection and they were able to figure out the code for my radio which hasn't worked in a year when my battery died!! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️ I sure will be back if needed when I'm in the area again taking care of my mom. Thank you!!

Great people here, willing to work with you and have some of the best prices around. They don’t try to upsell you or make you replace anything you don’t need, just have to be patient with the phone because they get a lot of calls. Will definitely be coming back for routine maintenance!

I was two hours into a four hour drive from north jersey to Vermont when my radiator blew. I got towed here and they moved me to the front of the line and had me fixed and ready to leave in three hours. Outstanding place. Highly recommend. People were fair and very personable. Great experience.

I'm from outside of Albany but attend school here and needed a mechanic to work on my car whenever i'm up here and Albany Auto Service and Tire has been great. I've gone to them several times in the last few months and Keehan (I believe thats how you spell it) is super nice. They always take care of my car and give me accurate time estimations as to how long a job will take and have great customer service.

★★★★★

Their team is totally awesome and I fully recommend them! I usually don’t leave reviews for anyone, but they got me right in and fixed the issue correctly and for $1,300 less than the dealers quote. They are trustworthy, friendly, and they don’t leave you hanging. Probably the ONLY honest mechanics in Albany.

Poor communication and semi untrustworthy vibes from the techs present. I went on behalf of a friend who had had her vehicle towed to the location. After mechanic analysis the vehicle was considered undiagnosable. It was said that starter might be bad but they didn't put the work into getting up under the car and jumping the starter. Then proceeded to offer 100 in scrap weigh. Yes I know these guys have to make their money but gosh, they could atleast provide some good diagnostic services.

★★★★★

Friendly, quick service, and not too pricey! I just brought my car in to have a new tire put on, these guys were great. I got it back the same day and it was very reasonable on the cost. Will definitely bring my car back next time I need something done!

I recently had an outstanding visit to Albany Auto Service and Tire LLC, and I just have to share how amazing the experience was! From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with a clean and inviting customer waiting area. The attention to detail in keeping the space spotless made me feel comfortable and valued as a customer. The service itself was truly exceptional. The staff were not only incredibly knowledgeable but also took the time to explain every step of the process. They made sure I understood what was happening with my vehicle and offered honest, expert advice on how to keep it in the best shape. You can tell they take pride in their work and strive for nothing short of perfection. The technicians went above and beyond by performing a thorough inspection, catching even the smallest details I hadn’t noticed before. Their meticulous approach gave me confidence that my car was being well taken care of. It’s rare to find such dedication and transparency in the auto industry, and Albany Auto Service and Tire LLC has certainly set a high standard. If you’re looking for top-notch auto service with a personal touch, I highly recommend checking them out. It’s clear that customer satisfaction is their top priority, and they’ve earned my trust for all future vehicle needs!

My daughters Kia engine blew up in Albany, 4 hours from her home. She had it towed to a dealership who wasnt very accommodating with her situation. I called Albany Auto from my home in florida and worked out a plan to get the car to their shop where they sourced and put a used engine in it. The guys at the shop were awesome to deal with, me being 1500 miles away and my daughter living in Rhode Island. This couldnt have been a very expensive task but AAS made it simple and easy. I really thought I was going to have fly up to New York in January. But didnt. ;} Thank you

I called ahead to see when I could get an inspection and Keehan and I settled on Friday afternoon. When pulling up I was a little nervous about how long it would take with the number of cars he had in the lot, but true to his word he got me in and out in about an hour; I was very pleased. As a registered CarMax repair shop I look forward to working with Keehan in the future.

October 19, 2024

This place is a joke. The owner took on a job of replacing the motor in my husbands truck that he had no business doing. The truck sat for 8 months not being fixed. If you dont know what your then dont say you do.i dont even rate the place 1 star but in order to give review I had to.

This place, the staff and the work has been absolutely amazing! My partner and I are road tripping through the states and had some quick issues with our truck. We called here and explained our situation with the truck and not wanting to take too much time out of our trip and they were able to take us in the next day as they were closing that day. Keehan was phenomenal to work with, was incredibly understanding and helped us quickly. Highly recommend!! EDITED UPDATE: my partner and I hit New York City and my partner curiously tried the cruise control (which stopped working and mechanics later saying that he had to go to Ford directly to get it fixed) just started working again! So not only did they fix our known issue, but happened to fix something else too!

Brought my car in for a check engine light issue. They were able to diagnose and fix the problem quickly, and at a good price. Excellent customer service as well. Would def recomend this repair shop.

On 07/15/2024 I went back to have my vehicle looked at bc I noticed a drip on the engine oil filter (I wiped it down and drove it but noticed another drip so I assumed one of the possible issues is that the filter mustve not been tightened enough). The owner wasnt there but I was told his brother or uncle (I forgot the exact relation) was. He was the one who did the transmission fluid change when I had that incident. I was skeptical bc even though it was stated to me that the fluid level was checked a couple of days after the incident, the owner was gone for a minute or two (there is a window so we can see the work being done on our vehicles) and since my car has a sealed transmission and it wasnt placed on the lift, it wouldnt be that quick. He saw that I was hesitant and he checked it in front of me and I timed it. It took him several minutes and he struggled to not only get the tool attached, to also get out from under my vehicle (his gut was in the way). Plus, when I looked prior to him unsealing it, it didnt have any oil residue but afterwards it did. He told me he checks the levels by placing his finger in there so when he did he made a noise that told me he shouldve put in more fluid. Now fast forward to the date above, the family member went on (not aggressive but I noticed he lied) about being a mechanic for a while and something about not liking people thinks he is a liar. It was told to me by the owner that they did a top off but the family member told me there was no fluid and it needed a full change. Then he later stated if I need more fluid he still has some of mine left. When he checked, this time it was placed on the lift, he stated the level is fine and there are no leaks. I noticed my skid plate was missing a few screws and told him, he became defensive and said it was like that although I know it wasnt and said in a nonchalant way that he has extra but he is working on a car that needs to be done on time or by are certain time and I can come back later so I said I can put them on myself and he shook his head and said something I couldnt hear so I left. That conversation didnt sit well with me so I made an appointment with my dealership. A day or two after it felt as if my vehicle was struggling so the day of my appointment I explained how my vehicle was driving (slow acceleration, low rpms and if they can check for leaks). They looked at it and I was told the fluid was low (but no leaks) so I had to pay for another fluid change. Luckily I dont drive my car far so it made it until the appointment. Had I not paid attention to what was said to me and what they were doing or not doing with my vehicle, I wouldve had a failed transmission. Im a young woman who is living in her car for now, I want to make sure my car is safe and avoid costly repairs which is why I get preventative maintenance done. Mechanics should be held to a much higher degree since their work or lack of can cost people their lives. Scamming people and putting them at risk will always come back around. Beware the people you trust with your vehicle. I know its more money but until you can find a trustworthy mechanic, its best to take it to your dealership. Best of luck.

Fantastic auto repair shop, Keehan and his team are upstanding, honest skilled mechanics who routinely go above and beyond to ensure they get the job done right. Have brought my Civic there for tire changes and inspections, finally brought it there to get the car tuned before driving across the country. They got the job done the same day, driving to pick up parts and undercharging for labor. I don t usually write reviews, but these guys are the best in the business.

I called Albany Auto Service to set an appointment to get my front brakes fixed on my 2015 Jeep Wrangler. I spoke to Keehan and was surprised when he told me to bring it in today or tomorrow. Most places have no appointments for a week. They were busy, but he seemed to have things organized. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. They diagnosed the problem, sent me an estimate that was very fair, I approved the estimate via text on my phone, and they completed the job the same day! When I picked up the car, Keehan asked me to test drive it with him to make sure the brake pedal feel was OK with me. Everything was perfect. Thats great attention to detail! Job well done - thanks!!!

Located right off I-90 Exit 5, its your Albany one-stop-shop to all your auto service needs. Extraordinary service: accurate, fast, and customer focused. Came here for a general inspection and an oil change. Im not an expert on car maintenance, so it was hard to describe what specifically about the car needed a look, but Keehan was able to piece it together from the limited info he got, came back with a full inspection report and recommended next steps (for free). Even took the time to look into the vehicle maintenance history to see whats been done and whats not. Very knowledgeable and courteous - love it!

We have MaxCare (a whole different story there!) and this is only one of two places within an hour of Albany that outright accepts this. We called to get information and schedule drop off. We were told straight up they may or may not be able to fix our problem but they were willing to take a look and let us know. They had the car for maybe 48 hours, but probably less given the time I dropped it off and then picked it up. Although they were ultimately unable to fix our problem their overall candor and communication is what earns them five stars from me.
