I have to thank the two gentlemen, that came to my rescue today by towing me out of my driveway after the horrific snow and ice storm we had. They came within 15 minutes of me putting in a request and had me out within 10. They were both very professional, helpful, and empathetic. again, thank you so much!

Extremely dissatisfied with the service at this tow yard. Our family car was towed here after an accident, and we encountered several issues: High fees: Charged nearly $650, demanded in cash. Vehicle damage: Upon retrieval, we found the driver's door bent and unable to close properly. The window was left down, allowing snow to fill the car. Inconsistent safety claims: They used a wheel lift to tow the car initially, but later claimed it was unsafe to drive or trailer off their lot due to "collapsed" suspension. Refusal of self-retrieval: They wouldn't allow us to bring our own trailer onto their property to remove the car. Costly alternatives: Offered to tow the car elsewhere for $100 plus per-mile fees, so we could load it on our trailer. Limited options: Ultimately, we had to let them take the car to a recycler, receiving no compensation whatsoever for a running car. These practices seem predatory and prioritize maximizing profits over customer service. I would strongly caution others about using this tow yard.

Recently took my 2013 Accord in for a service check and oil change. I left confident that the job was completed well; and that my car was in good shape. Not only is their service good, but Trevor and his office staff are professional, friendly, and accommodating. My introduction to Trev’s was the result of a AAA roadside assistance call the responded to. I consider that a lucky day for me and highly recommend this business!

I inadvertently missed an appointment I had made for service to my vehicle. I called Trev's Automotive to apologize for missing my appointment, and to reschedule it. Trevor was extremely accommodating and got my vehicle in for the service quickly. The personnel were polite and very professional. I have used Trev's Automotive for several years and trust them to do the job correctly.

Trevs came out and towed my truck under AAA. The driver, Rob, was a real class act professional,. one of the nicest, funniest and knowledgeable tow truck drivers I have met. You could tell he knew what he was doing and had my truck towed to the repair shop quickly. I would count on Trevs again in a heart beat for towing again.

RUN AWAY FROM TREVOR AND THIS FACILITY!!!! GOT AN INTERSTATE BATTERY ON 7/18 (TWO MONTHS AGO) FOR OVER $200 AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO GUARANTEE THIS! ACTUALLY TREV SAID "IN 40 YEARS I'VE NEVER HAD AN INTERSTATE BATTERY DIE." THEN TOLD ME I WAS DIFFICULT- AFTER I TOLD HIM THE EXTERNAL BATTERY CHARGER SAID THE BATTERY FAILED- SEE PICS ATTACHED. WHEN HE SAID IT WAS MY FAULT AS I PROBABLY LEFT THE TRUNK OPEN, I SAID NO I DIDN'T AND SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR A JUMP OR TOW HE HUNG UP!!! I GUESS A FEMALE ISN'T SUPPOSED TO ASK LOGICAL AUTOMOTIVE QUESTIONS. THE BATTERY IS THE ISSUE AND THEY REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS WAS POSSIBLE! I CAN'T EXPRESS HOW UNPROFESSIONAL THIS BUSINESS IS!!! UPDATE: AAA CONFIRMED IT'S A BAD BATTERY (SEE PIC BELOW) AND NOTHING ELSE. ALSO THAT TREV'S PUT IN THE WRONG TYPE OF BATTERY. MY CAR NEEDS AN EFB BATTERY, WHICH AAA DIDN'T HAVE. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO ALSO CONFIRMED A BAD BATTERY AND THAT TREV'S PUT THE WRONG BATTERY IN MY VEHICLE! TREV'S NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THEIR BAD BUSINESS PRACTICES AND REFUND MY MONEY! NEW UPDATE: SEE ATTACHED PIC. TREV PUT THE WRONG BATTERY TYPE IN AS PER THE DEALERSHIP. THE CORRECT BATTERY FOR MY CAR WAS AN EFB (ENHANCED FLOODED BATTERY), AAA EVEN KNEW THIS! THIS BUSINESS IS A JOKE AS THEY DON'T EVEN LOOK UP WHAT TYPE OF SPECIFIC BATTERY YOUR CAR REQUIRES. THEY JUST THROW IN WHATEVER AND UPCHARGE!

Rude. I called requesting to have an estimate given to me prior to a tow service after being recommended to use this company by my mechanic. The person who answered the phone didn t want to give an estimate, was rude over the phone, and very blatantly hung-up on me. It s getting harder and harder to find businesses who value their customers and customer service the way that they used to.

Trev is an amazing human being, hes a wonderful businessman and treats his customers as family. I recommend Trev Automotive to anyone and everyone. Great service above the top mechanics. The tow service alone is an award-winning service. I cant remember how many times hes helped my reckless teenager, friends, and family. Honest rates with pricing, willing to tell you when not to invest in a vehicle. He has saved many of us from spending money on something that doesnt need to be fixed. Honest, sincere, great service. I always tip my mechanic and have a great report with all of them. I love this garage and all who work for Trev.

My entire experience was positive I should mention I know I had a laundry list of things wrong with my car so I was expecting a couple thousand dollars my total was only $836! I happy cried. Thank you Trev for everything, my car runs beautifully!

WARNING this clown is a rip off. This past weekend he took advantage of my 17 yo who ended up in a ditch while avoiding a sliding car due to weather. The total cost after towing and storage on his lot from Saturday at 8pm until 8am Monday morning cost $615. I feel like weve been swindled. If we couldnt afford this, the car would still be locked up in his lot!!! If I could give a MINUS 5 STARS I would.

My mom took her car there for AC diagnostics - AC is blowing hot air. My mom has bad English so after she paid a $150 fee with her credit card I called the shop to get the diagnostics results. First red flag was that they charged $150 instead of promised $120, turns out they took advantage of her bad English and did a NYS inspection even though it wasnt due for another 7 months. I started talking to Trevor (owner, I assume) about AC and he said that the AC was broken during prior repair elsewhere and they decline further service on it. I started asking for options on how to repair the AC since we just paid $120 to get a path forward, he became argumentative and replied with whatever floats your boat, but we decline any further service on the car. I asked if we can decline his diagnostics charge since my mom is on a fixed income and now needed to start over at different shop. Trevor proceeded to curse me out over the phone and hang up. My mom was in her car ready to leave as she checked out with receptionist and got her keys back. Trevor proceeded to flag her down and aggressively told her to get out of the car and to give him car keys back. My mom did not know what was going on and gave him the keys, he then moved the car behind a locked gate. When I called back to ask what was happening and why he took the car back after we completed the transaction, he said that he refunded the credit card payment and will accept cash only by 5pm otherwise there will be a $75 daily storage fee. My mom tried to go back to tell him that she had only $60 cash on her -- Trevor screamed at her to get out of his shop in front of other customers. Fortunately, my brother was in the area and had cash on him, otherwise my mom would be stranded in 90 degree heat without means of transport. We should have called the police, but my mom was already distraught and wanted to get out of there asap.

Recently I went to Trevs to have my brakes checked after being told by a National dealership that replacement at 38000 miles was recommended. I had been experiencing no brake issues prior to this point. Trevs checked all four brakes and informed me that I still had 50-75% brake life left. Thank you Trevs for saving me hundreds of dollars on replacement brake pads but more importantly for your Honesty. That trait is very rare in the automotive repair business today.

March 19, 2024

Unprofessional, rude, and unnecessarily hostile. The staff displaced their business practice issue with my insurance company, onto me though I had no control over either sides business choices. Ultimately this effected me, though I had done nothing wrong. Avoid at all cost!

I was in a complicated situation this past weekend as my car had broken down while in the Albany area, while driving through from Buffalo. My car was inoperable and needed to get back to Buffalo, so I contacted AAA. Three other companies had declined the job, but Trevs not only took the job, but was great to work with at every stage. The shop reached out to me to confirm every detail and Chris, the driver, arrived within 50 minutes of their taking the job. Chris was very helpful throughout the entire process, the truck was quite well maintained, and I was back in Buffalo in relatively little time. They could very easily have turned down the job, but they delivered in every respect, making a very stressful and logistically difficult situation much easier to handle.

Had a Chevy Impala with an electrical issue. Brought it to Trev sometime over the rainbow with a misfire issue. He listened intently to the problem but my coil packs are still malfunctioning. I tried my best to listen to the spark plugs but they make a clicking sound. Now I have blow by coming out of my PCV valve. Dont know what to do here. Maybe get a tire rotation next time.

Have been going to Trevs for last couple of years because I couldnt find a decent mechanic in the East Greenbush\Castleton area. Hes been spot on with my companys vehicles so decided I would give him a try Could not be happier. The work is done right the first time, cost is reasonable and he has a quick turn around. Trev has also been helpful pointing out what repairs I should consider in the future ie the transmission pan will need replacing sooner than later and the differential seals are starting to leak. Like I said couldnt be happier.

March 19, 2020

I do not recommend this place to anyone. I am so livid over what just happened to me at Trevs Automotive. To make a long story short, I had went to them because my car randomly shut off for no apparent reason. I asked them to just check it out because my check engine light was on and I was concerned. They ran a diagnostic on the vehicle and it turned out that I needed a gas cap because I some how lost my original one. Anyways, I expected to pay around 20 dollars for a new one and pay for the little labor they spent to figure out what was wrong with the vehicle. They didnt find anything wrong with the vehicle except for the gas cap issue. So the total bill was $98.08. I never had a break down of cost before they preformed a diagnostic and they never asked permission to preform the service. To me, I find that good business would be to break down what service they would be performing and what those services would cost before carrying out such duties with the paying customer. I shared my frustrations with the employee over the phone and such person said that I must be on drugs and that I was out of line for sharing such concerns. He also continued to say that I need to grow up and that I have an attention span and common sense of a flea. He also was cursing me out and saying the most repulsive derogatory names. If anyone is reading this, do not give them your business. They do not deserve your hard earned money and are not only unprofessional but also unethical in their business practices. I was a repeat customer but due to this event and unethical business practice, I am not going there again. Please do not go there, you will only regret the money you spent but also you may not even get your car fixed because of their inept mechanics and owner. One week later Ive now just discovered that some of my lug nuts were missing and loosened from my driver side front wheel. I had to get it towed to another company and they said that if I had driven my vehicle 100 yards further, that I would have wrecked or caused an accident. Isnt that weird that after arguing with the owner and him saying things that were unprofessional and inappropriate, that would happen. Once again, do not go there.

One thins that makes Trevs stand out above their competitors is their Honesty. You never feel that you are being deceived or mislead. Their diagnosis is accurate and their pricing is fair. You leave knowing your problem was fixed and your bill contains only items you really needed

Be aware!!!!!!!! This place is shady af, do not do business with this place, very unprofessional employees. they will steal your hard working money. Outrageous towing prices. I would give 0000000 stars. Spread the word people.

Mechanic about as dumb as my lug nut. Going on the highway near Exit 11 my wheel start wobbling uncontrollably. Pull over to the side of the road and bingo! Someone must have been absent on lugnut day because I was missing two! Tried to call and never received a return call. Hope they dont service their own U-Haul trucks. Wouldnt be wanting to rent one of those if the wheel comes off. Its where the two lug nuts joined together on my rim. Not that hard to follow. Paid $100 for The Works package and this is what I get. Aggravation is unneeded. I am not going back. I know how to tighten my own nuts. FYI TO THE OWNER WRITING IN ALL CAPS REPEATEDLY SHOWS HOW THICK HEADED AND IGNORANT YOU ARE. GOOD DAY.

I stopped by here a while ago to rent a small uhaul trailer. I see they don t even have uhaul anymore, interesting. Anyway, I stop by to pickup the trailer, this was a Friday evening and there were a couple other people there for uhaul rentals. So the place was busy with one gal working. My tow vehicle was a Ford F-350 dually. The truck was obviously made to tow far, far more weight than what you could ever load onto a puny little uhaul trailer. The gal at the counter turned me away because she couldn t find where it said the capacity of the hitch. I looked at her and chuckled a bit saying to her, ma am, are you sure you couldn t find it - it s Dual wheeled pickup, it has an enormous hitch mounted directly to the frame rails of the truck from the ford factory, please tell me you re joking, right? (I doubt you can buy this truck without a factory mounted hitch...). She apologized nicely, and said nope sorry I don t see it, can t do anything for you because uhaul policy requires the capacity to be listed on the hitch. Then she says If the owner was still around, he d perhaps let it slide, but he has already left for the day so I can t let you rent the trailer . I rolled my eyes and scratched my head in disbelief and quietly walked out. I make the trip home in total disbelief for the ridiculousness of what just occurred - and quite frankly very annoyed that I d now have to race to another uhaul rental place before they closed. Again this is a Friday evening and I need the trailer for a weekend trip. Once home, I get under the back of the truck to look for the capacity on the hitch, wipe some dirt off the hitch and bam - there it is, clear as day. Absolute lazyness on their part. Conclusion: they were busy, and couldn t take 30 seconds to find the capacity and just turned the business away to accommodate other people who were there to rent perhaps more expensive trucks etc. I will never go back to this place for anything. Note: this is not a fictional post, I certainly am a real person..

A few years back I had a Plymouth Voyager minivan blow a transmission and when Trev did the work on it for $2,500 rebuild it didnt function properly after he did it. When I went to pick up the vehicle they never reattach the back up lights and with the transmission being rebuilt the car didnt shift out of first gear. When I brought the vehicle back they remove the transmission shift modulator and in the process broke off one of the connector points where the screw attaches it to the vehicle. Then called me and texted me with a picture with a drop of water inside the harness connector point and said that it was filled with water. I looked at the picture and saw no corrosion and only one drop of water in the picture when I went to I l he said that it had already dried up and it was nothing to show me. I confronted him on the fact that the shift modulator had been broken upon removal in said that I wasnt going to pay him for a new one cuz he wanted to charge me for a new modulator and labor cost to install. When I said that he should pay for it cuz he broke it and couldnt prove that there was water in the harness connector he threatened to push my vehicle into the road and told me to get the hell out of his store and dont come back.unfortunately I found this guy to be a complete con artist and a scammer and I would never recommend him to anyone find a better place like Opitz in Schenectady for transmission work.

Highly recommend Trev! My 2011 Hyundai Elantra needed some work and Trev told me exactly what was wrong with it, nothing less, nothing more. Broke down prices for me and told me what was needed as compared to what is more of just an inconvience at the time. Very quick about getting you in especially with an appointment! I have absolutely no complaints and will be back if my car has any more repair needs (hopefully not soon, no offense Trev!) Great work! Thank you!!

After bouncing around a few repair places in town I tried Trevs. It has the advantage of being within walking distance of home. So far everything has been done well, within reasonable time, and relatively inexpensively. A couple of more such experiences and I will likely up them to a 5. It would be good if they could upgrade the waiting room a little, cause sometimes I do prefer to just wait instead of walking home.

Went there to get a u haul 26 footer. They had the truck but made me park half a mile away to church parking lot. They said their lot was full for automotive shop. Dont rent your trucks out if you cant accommodate all of your customers. I shouldnt have to park half mile away if Im paying to pick up a truck. It makes no sense and I was the only car parked at the church parking lot.

I have used Trevs multiple times, from having them come Tow my truck, help with water in my gas tank, or just a full system clean on an old 99 Jeep, the workmanship and communication has been great. Prices are that of most mechanics, so not cheap - but good quality work.

My wife had our Lincoln Aviator towed to Trevs a month ago. They even got into a little tiff on the phone about the repairs when he called with an estimate. She is an extremely difficult woman to deal with she grew up in a garage. She was extremely satisfied with the work and pricing. She came home handed me the bill and was very happy with the work. She couldnt stop bragging to friends she found a great garage and a good mechanic. We have been to a few other garages in the surrounding area and got nothing but Bamboozled and ripped off. I have to say after spending $900.00 we are completely satisfied. Were having another family vehicle towed into Trevs tomorrow. I know nothing about vehicles and everything about Harleys. Im a hardcore biker with a hardcore wife and if this garage fits her standards then their the best in my book. We live in a society were people are quick to judge and think their getting ripped off. I can assure you that Trevs Auto is fare, honest and above all trying to meet everyones standards. To those who love to resort to being a keyboard warrior and posting negative reviews on the net. It shows your true character..... Oh and in the negative reviews is Kevin Ray 69ers MC out of Troy NY. Kevin Ray is nothing but a drunkin piece of garbage. I had to laugh when I read his review Typical low life Troy Garbage. Trev his review doesnt matter. Hes a drunk who rips everyone off. Ivan OL MC

Total crooks. My insurance agent just called trevs to recover a reciept from a winch out so I could have it reimbursed under my insurance. It was less then a month ago. The individual that answered the phone stated that the bill is to old and they dont have it. When asked if he could just write a reciept up and fax it, He literally said theirs nothing I can do and hung up the phone on my agent. Scummy shady company the driver probly pocketed the cash and wrote nothing up. AVOID THIS COMPANY. Hope the IRS never audits you guys. That will be my next phone call

I am a long time Trev customer. I am always treated fairly and his entire team is competent, professional, and skilled at what they do. His estimates are accurate and his prices are competitive and the work on my many cars has always been done correctly and at a fair price. I recommend his shop without reservation.

I needed a simple tow hitch install on my wifes Subaru. I was renting a U-Haul from Trevs for a separate matter and thought just do everything in one place. I called and got a quote of 264 dollars (dont remember the change) which I agreed to. I know this quote was inline because my father had just gotten a tow hitch put on his Subaru for 230. The price difference was in the special tow hitch needed for her Impreza rather than the more generic used on his Outback. My wife brought the car in. The install time was double what we were quoted, annoying but not much more than a minor inconvenience. The problems started when I got the invoice from my wife. She wasnt aware of how much of a deposit I made (199) so when they charged her 190 she handed them my card and paid. The garage saw that they werent dealing with me but someone who was simply dropping the car and took advantage. They over charged by 125 dollars. When I called to calmly talk to the owner, Trevor, I was met with lies, insults, and swearing. He didnt remain professional for two minutes. To me this is a further admission of his guilt in this matter. Im taking it up with the credit card company. DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Low class, unprofessional thieves.

Trev has been taking care of my vehicles for over 25 years now, always doing a great job. Most recently I brought in an older Dodge Caravan with serious brake and front end problems. It came out of his shop handling perfectly, and the bill was right on estimate. Another job well done.

March 19, 2016

Charged us $900 and never fixed the problem! Seriously? I dont see how they justify this. Now Im out of money and still have a car thats not running. Would have respected them more if they were just honest and said they couldnt do it. Sorry Trev but no... vehicle still skipping and running rough absolutely the same as when we brought it in.

NOT SURE HOW THE AUTOMOTIVE SIDE IS BUT RENTING A U-HAUL FROM THIS LOCATION MAY HAVE POSSIBLY AMOUNTED TO THE WORST CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. I RENTED A VAN LAST MINUTE AT 6:15PM BEFORE THEY CLOSED AND WAS THANKFUL THAT THEY HAD ONE AVAILABLE. I DISCUSSED HAVING THE VAN BACK THE SAME NIGHT THINKING THAT IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE AS I WAS ONLY MOVING TWO COUCHES. THIS WAS NOT SET IN STONE AND THE RENTAL CONTRACT GUARANTEED ME 24HRS AS I WAS CHARGED THE FULL $19.95 FOR A DAILY RENTAL. THAT NIGHT FAMILY ISSUES AROSE AND I DID NOT HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO BRING THE VAN BACK THE SAME NIGHT BUT WAS ABLE TO GET IT BACK THE NEXT DAY AROUND 1PM. THIS CLEARLY SATISFIED THE 24HR RENTAL AGREEMENT AND I EXPECTED TO ONLY GET CHARGED $19.95. WHEN I RECEIVED MY BILLING STATEMENT I REALIZED THAT THE COST HAD JUMPED TO $69. CONFUSED, I CALLED TREVS AND SPOKE WITH THE SAME MANAGER I HAD THE NIGHT OF THE RENTAL. SHE PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT I WAS CHARGED TWO DAYS FOR THE RENTAL AS SHE HAD DECIDED TO DOUBLE-BOOK THE VAN AND THAT BECAUSE OF THE INCONVENIENCE I WOULD NOT BE REFUNDED. DURING OUR DISCUSSION IT HAD NEVER BEEN MENTIONED THAT THE VAN NEEDED TO BE RETURNED THE NIGHT BEFORE AS IT WAS GOING TO BE PROMISED TO ANOTHER CUSTOMER. ADDITIONALLY, SHE CLAIMS THAT THEY RENT ON A PER DAY BASIS WHICH IS APPARENTLY ARBITRARILY DECIDED BY THEM WHAT CONSTITUTES AS A DAY. THIS ARGUMENT DOESNT MAKE SENSE SUCH THAT A DAY IS TECHNICALLY 24HRS AND IF I HAD RENTED THE VEHICLE WITHOUT A CONVERSATION SHE EVEN ADMITS THAT I WOULD HAVE ONLY BEEN CHARGED A DAY IF RETURNED WITHIN 24HRS...WHICH IT WAS. FINALLY, AFTER CALLING U-HAUL, IT TURNS OUT THAT CONTRACTUALLY THE MANAGER DID NOT EVEN CHARGE ME AN ADDITIONAL DAY BUT A CLEANING FEE WHICH WAS UNNEEDED AS THE VAN WAS RETURNED FULL OF GAS AND IN THE CONDITION IT WAS RENTED. THE MANAGER CLAIMS THIS WAS A MISTAKE AND THAT SHE MEANT TO CHARGE IT ON THE CONTRACT AS AN EXTRA DAY. THAT SEEMS A LITTLE TOO CONVENIENT TO ME AS A CLEANING CHARGE CANT BE DISPUTED AS EASILY AS AN EXTENDED RENTAL CAN. SHE ALSO STATED THAT AS SHE WAS NOT ABLE TO CONTACT ME THIS ADDED TO THE INCONVENIENCE. I EXPLAINED THAT I HAD JUST RECEIVED A NEW PHONE AND AS I WAS ABLE TO MAKE OUT GOING CALLS I ASSUMED INCOMING ONES WERE WORKING AS WELL. I APOLOGIZED FOR THIS ALSO BUT REGARDLESS OF ANY OF THE ANCILLARY OR ANECDOTAL EVIDENCES PROVIDED IN THIS STORY; I RENTED A VAN FOR A DAY (24HRS,) RETURNED IT IN THAT TIME FRAME AND WAS CHARGED FOR TWO DAYS (48HRS.). THIS IS FRAUDULENT THIEVERY AND I EXPECT ANY CHARGES OUTSIDE OF THE WRITTEN CONTRACT TO BE REFUNDED TO ME. AT THIS TIME U-HAUL IS INVESTIGATING THE INCIDENT AND MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED TO DISPUTE ANY CHARGES FROM TREVS. I WILL CONTINUE TO ESCALATE THIS ISSUE UNTIL I AM FAIRLY COMPENSATED. OVERALL, IN THE CASE OF THIS MANAGER AT LEAST, TREVS SEEMS LIKE A SHADY SHOP.
