Albany Light Truck & Car Repair in Albany

Had my RV in for service. They did the work in a timely fashion and were very friendly.

Great staff and work, from maintenance service to last minute tire replacements, our fleet didn t lose a beat.

Great service. Knowledge staff

Never received a call back regarding vehicle repair.

Great, quick service. Helped my crews with an equipment breakdown quick and honest!!

Great shop! Very skilled, knowledgeable and helpful people . I highly recommend them!!

They helped as much as possible, paid off my truck they there went the truck hahaha, but they were helpful an looks like I will go there from now one with my new vehicle

Vinney and his team were very helpful, if you need service for your car or truck stop in with confidence that they will do a great job for you, their help was much appreciated, Thank you, Joe

My daughter is an out state student athlete at UAlbany. We have brought her car here several times over the past 4 years and once my own truck broke down on a visit. Found the through AAA. Excellent workmanship and outstanding communication. My daughter found them helpful and reassuring. Thank you for your help.

Vinny Chickerelli --- he da man!!!

Dont take anything to them if its old

Depends on the day if they feel like working on your vehicle. Gave this guy a lot of business over the years and now randomly they say they don t work on anything older than 20 years. What a joke. Guy worked on my 95 ranger a few years back lol

Great place to get your RV serviced.

Rude, demeaning and nasty Man speaking to us about a 1989 American Cobra being too old to put tires on. You are clueless and out of touch with reality. I am the owner of an old RV that is in mint condition. Almost fully restored. The bias ply tires were discontinued in the 1990 s. However, there is a conversion chart available online. I asked them if they could sell me the tires and I would mount and balance them myself. He said no, his boss won t let him. I told him about himself and said you lost thousands of dollars. They miss treat WOMEN and are Very inappropriate

Used them once before and it me cost @$1800 to replace brakes lines to have the unit pass inspection. Brought my motorhome in just recently and when they finally had the time, almost two weeks later, I was quoted an astonishing $8000 for it to pass inspection. I wouldnt recommend this shop to anyone. I sold the unit to a mechanic in less than a day after picking the unit up from them and the mechanic was thrilled to have it! These guys are unreasonable and overpriced clowns!

Great work! we were stranded with a generator broken on a RV that the tailpipe got hit from a cone in the road and it destroyed the muffler area. They got to it right away and did some quality work and got on the road

I ve been a customer for a few years now and I ve always had.a great experience with Vinny and his crew - highly recommend!!

Convenient, courteous, clean got the job done in a reasonable time highly recommend them

Reticent to give a five-star review because its already so popular and thus busy, but I must be honest. So greatfull that this place exists!

Way over priced quoted me $1000 more then I previously paid for same issue on the car at another location.would not recommend to anyone unless you want to over pay for service

Good worker but they need to stop scamming

Took great care of my vehicle and were fast. Definitely call ahead to verify if they can get you in, but no problems and I have used them for maintenance and repairs for a while. Ive recommended these guys to anyone who needs care repairs

so hard to make a appointment

Fantastic people. Great guy helped me make a decision on a diesel truck. This is an honest mechanics shop and they do great business!

Very good team always keep my old car feeling new

Charged me for time they spent diagnosing the actual problem AFTER I called and told them what the problem was.

Their exceptional communications makes me feel Im good honest hands. July 2022.. Again got the best service. Older RV feels safe for an extended trip.

Albany Light Truck and Car Repair found me an excellent used car - I have had it for four years - still runs great. Honest, dependable service.

Called them for a service on my Infiniti and they refused to provide repairs even though they advertise in offering repairs on Japanese brands. False advertisement

Thanks Benny for your service and help to us. God bless you all

Always the best spot to bring my car for work. The staff is amazing. I have been going to them for 15+ years and will not go to any other mechanic. Thank you guys for the great job you do.

Professional and fast.

Clean shop and respectful workers

I would like to thank Vinny & Shawn for fixing my car. I highly recommend that whatever is going on with your vehicle, take it to these guys.

These guys are always friendly and accommodating and most of all I trust them. They are always busy and that is testimony to the fact that they are good people. We have been bringing our motorhome there the last 4 or 5 years and they never try to oversell. I will continue to bring our motorhome to them. They also have great prices on tires.

I was not near home when I had mechanical issues with my vehicle. I located this business and saw their multiple good reviews. I will lump on and agree with so many others that Albany Light Truck and Car Repair is one of those independent garages that are tough to find. Sean and his staff are top notch. Had me back on the road within 24 hrs. Great folks

With a scheduled in advance appointment, had my 2019 Thor motorhome for 10 days to find cause and fix constantly on airbag system light. Resulting bill $1600 plus before taxes and front swivel seats are now stopped from rotation with zip ties. Went here because of referral from Albany RV/RVone, Fucillo Ford and Depaula Ford.

I cannot say enough good things about Vinny at Albany Light Truck & Car repair. I was passing through the area in my RV when we experienced a blow out on my back tire. I was able to drive safely to a location. We called several places and no one could help until I called this place. Vinny and I communicated back and forth and he gave me directions to their shop where I could drive safely with one flat back tire. They got me in, replaced back two tires and had me back on the road in 2 hours. I am eternally grateful for their assistance! They were so kind as well! I highly recommend this place!

Had service done on a motorhome they did a great job

This team goes above and beyond to take care of my car. I definitely trust their work.

Friendly people and great service!!

Vinny took my call and when I explained my towing problem and that I needed to get on the road to Florida he said to bring it in. With a little luck and a lot of professionalism and perserverance I will be back on the road in the morning feeling safe with my fa.ily and beginnings in tow. Vinny was a real blessing!

Good work..fast..no complaints other than access being slightly tricky until youve been there once.

Honest mechanics who do great work!

Brought my diesel pickup truck in. Engine was running rough. Was charged $700 to replace two sensors. They also told me i needed a new computer. On my way driving home i came to find out a partially severed injector wire was my issue and fixed it with a 10¢ wire crimp. I wish they had spent a bit more time on diagnosis and less on parts. Nonetheless they were really nice guys and don t believe they had any bad intentions. But I m left feeling kinda stupid spending so much money on such a simple problem.

Excellent place for vehicle repairs.

My favorite mechanics!

I stopped in to have a valve stem repaired on my camper they had it done in like 20 min with out an appointment can t say enough great things about the whole staff were great. I had problems with my lights plug that hooked to my camper also they fixed that in a few hrs thanks so much.

Amazing place. The owner is fantastic. The mechanics are very knowledgeable and I highly recommend this place for work on vehicles of any type

Brought my car in to have a dead headlight bulb changed (requires entire front bumper to be pulled, thanks GM), oil changed, and state inspection. They set me up with an appointment for the next week (I had told them no rush, I have all month) and the work was done same day. I had intended to change both bulbs, to prevent having to pay the labor on removing the bumper again in the near future, and they very helpfully suggested I change EVERY bulb in the front headlights. It was good advice as I hadnt considered the other bulbs, just the main ones. No other mechanic I called for a quote pointed that out to me; the cost increase was negligible. When the final price was above what was quoted to me, he immediately looked it back over and dropped the prices to his quote. Odds are the bumper gave more trouble than anticipated; everyone Ive ever asked says its worth the money to have someone else do it because its such a pain. They value honesty and good service. Prices were reasonable. Turnaround time was much better than average. I would recommend them.

Ive been using Albany Light Truck and Car since I had to have a vehicle of mine towed there out of necessity. At the time I was surprised about how good their customer service was - and the degree to which they worked with us on the price of a sudden and costly repair. Since then Ive been getting routine maintenance there and dont plan to change that anytime soon!

Been going there for over 15 years. Never disappointed.

Vinny took excellent care of my rv and came in 2 grand lower than the estimate he provided after the work was complete. Highly recommended

They ended up having our sprinter van twice for a month to get stuff done (well, one visit was a month and 6 days, but who is counting). It seems like their promptness has really suffered. We also had a car seat chewed on by a mouse while being repaired there. We also had to have further repairs (an engine rebuild in VT!) done after they finished their last repair. But maybe it was just destined to happen. That said, when they asked why our diesel van had trouble starting when it was below freezing, and I asked if they had used the block heater and they hadn t, it made me wonder... Prior review: Not the cheapest place but they seem to be fairly prompt, professional and will communicate what they think should be done and why. The repairs I ve had done here seem to be solid.

Awesome people to deal with. Friendly professional staff who do great service work. Best truck mechanic in town!

Ive been to many shops in the cap district and these guys are the best, if you own a light truck and have been looking for honest, knowledgeable and fast mechanics, this is the place. When your truck leaves their shop its ready to work, and their prices are very fair.

Honest , reliable, and understanding. I have used them for fleet work and personal vehicles and either way you get the same wonderful prompt service. Its trully unusual to find a shop like this and I recomend them for cars trucks or rv service. Car repairs are never fun but you can rely on these folks to do it the right way!

Really good service. Got me in next day. Gave me a estimate that was spot on and fixed my car as needed. Highly recommended.

Good service and friendly atmosphere.

Really appreciate the quick service. Was painless and honest. They did was best for me and my car. Will definitely be going back for repairs.

Honest and very cost effective. Vinny was a perfect gentleman and cares a lot about his customers. Give em a shot

Good Customer Service

Vinnie was great. He was waiting for me when I got there .. You dont see that anymore..... Kevin Vanburen Watervliet NY

Good customer service

Excellent service, friendly and knowledgeable staff. A place you can trust. I would recommend this repair shop to everyone.

Great service.

Great service, awesome staff.

Love Albany Light Truck. We were stuck. Vinny took us in, turned the repair around while we waited. I loved the way he took control and delivered on what he said. We will be back!

Incredibly fast and super polite. Vinny was great, had my truck fixed in a few hours at half the price I thought it be.

We were passing through the area and had our brakes go on the camper. I called and Vinny and he had me stop by the same day to look at it. Then he diagnosed and fixed the brakes and a few issues on the truck. 150% happy with the service and recommendations. Thank you ALT for the great service!

would love to write a review but have been trying to get an appointment since July for my RV.. Was told today(9 13 18), to call back in October!

I thought they did an amazing job diagnosing the problem and repairing my vehicle. They were very nice and offered to pick me up at my house next time. Will being using this repair shop feom now on.

Excellent customer and vehicle service! I am always contacted and the service explained prior to work. Great car knowledge and honest people. Always satisfied - I bring all my cars here.

Vinny Ciccarelli and team took great care of our RV. We had badly damaged the step and I was certain it would need to be replaced. Vinny was honest about the possible outcomes and pricing for best and worst scenarios. Turned out, their technician was expertly able to fix the step, and we were on our way a short hour or so later. We were COMPLETELY satisfied with the work and integrity of Albany Light Truck & Car Repair. They got us back on the road!

I recently moved to NY from SC and was concerned about learning how to drive in snow for the first time. Vinny was very patient and helpful and made sure my car was ready for the winter weather. This is by far the best shop Ive visited!

Several years ago we were referred to Albany Light Truck and Car Repair by a close friend. We needed a base plate installed on our GMC Terrain so that we could flat tow behind our RV and they had experience with this type of work. We were not disappointed. We scheduled an appointment and the work was done in the promised time. The price was extremely fair for the work involved in the installation. We continued each year having our inspections done on the RV. We recently purchased a new vehicle and once again entrusted Vinnie and the crew to install the base plate on our 2017 Traverse. They not only did a great job on the installation but also did the wiring. Every bit of it is professional looking and neatly done. Once again, the price was fair for the amount of work done. All of the staff is professional and polite whether visiting in person or speaking on the phone. My husband and I cannot say enough positive things about the business in general. We will continue using their services and promoting their services to others. Thank you for making us believers that their are still honest, professional business owners still in existence.

I love the whole team at Albany Light Truck. Thats what makes them awesome. They always fix my cars right away when I need them fixed, and they never try to make me fix stuff that doesnt need fixing. Ive been going there for over a decade and Id consider them friends just as much as I consider them my car shop.

Theyre trust worthy and honest, you cant ask for more from your mechanic. They are awesome and Ill never stop taking my cars there.

If you need to get an RV trailer inspection, this is the place to go!

On time services but very expensive.

Great service and reliable

Did great job on rv brakes In a timely manor, a little pricey but fair. Needed rv to go to Chicago to see daughter graduate from navy boot camp.

Staff is terrific work is done on time

My son gets his and his wifes vehicles fixed there says they are excellent.

I had my husbands truck down there to install a tow hitch. Vince was great did the job perfect price was awesome. By far the best place to take your truck or car. In upstate New York If it doesnt need to be fixed Vince will be upfront with you. People need a few good people in there corner. A lawyer. A doctor. And a honest mechanic. Now my family as all three. Thank you Vince your the best!!!!!!

Came in with a broken exhaust expecting to pay a ton to replace it... Ill be leaving paying probably a thousand dollars less than what I expected, and in a days less time than expected. Vinny is honest and very straightforward with everything. Ive been here before for transmission trouble and battery trouble and will continue to come here for all of my automotive problems. Great place all around! Need any kind of automotive work done? Go here.

I get my Motorhome serviced here. Fair prices and great service. Easy access. Vinnie is really interested in whatever problems the vehicle is having. I highly recommend their repair shop.

I want to say a big Thank you to Vinny and the guys at Albany Light Truck and Car. You fixed my Grand Caravan when the AC stopped working. It took a little longer then we thought but you kept me updated. The AC works super. I will be telling all my friends and family to bring their cars to you to be fixed. You didnt over price me. Again Thank-you all for a great job...

100% honest and trustworthy. Theyll even take you back into the garage to show you the issue. Very transparent and straightforward!

THey suck! They claim to be Christians and they rip you off! Dont go

I first heard of Albany Light Truck & Car repair on an ad on christian radio, so when I started to have trouble with my CRV I called and spoke to Vinny. Over the phone he was gracious in talking through my issue, and he accurately suggested a read differential service to take care of my problem. He was right and I had them do the service. Ever since then Ive found that both Vinny and Brian are absolutely wonderful at customer service and have really been a blessing with providing me with accurate, fair and timely recommendations on my vehicle. The work ALTC has done has been wonderful and I am very pleased with the service theyve provided. Prices are definitely fair, and my confidence in their keeping my 160,000 mile vehicle on the road safely is very high. I highly recommend Albany Light Truck and Car repair for a fair price and a caring, trustworthy experience for taking care of your vehicle.
