“Was there to get a tire pluged with a appointment at 10:30 Got their at 9am and they took me in earlier. Very nice guy that works the front desk. They were fast and did a great job. So much better then Firestone down the street on San Pablo. The people at firestone lie bad!!! Go to Tire Choice much better”
“Not much work was actually done on the car but I was bringing it to an auto body shop soon and wanted to check that it was mechanically sound first. Dana confirmed that it was and I was good to go. Just a little touch of kindness, they vacuumed the front carpet and told me I needed to replace my 8 yo tires.”
“Brought my car in for the first time yesterday after BMW quoted me close to $1600 for an oil change, air filter change, vehicle diagnostic, and brake fluid change. They were able to take me in the next morning and quoted me $600 less than BMW did. Service only took like three hours compared to a full day that BMW would’ve taken. Appreciate their honesty, great prices and professionalism. I’ll be back!”
“Same day turnaround on a short notice for an inspection for Audi E-tron. Had some notifications on the dashboard that needed to be resolved.
They were able to accommodate my schedule. Great service!”
“Lowest cost of places I contacted. No wait time to get 1 new tire mounted. Good customer service manager. Clean, comfortable waiting room. Manager patiently answered some tech questions I had. Work was done quickly. Can recommend this place for tire work.”
“We took my boss to get his 57 chevy Bel air in to get chrome exhaust tips put on his car,he had work done at this place before. The car turned out great,Pele was very friendly and we'll go back again for his services.”
“I had a bumper that needed fixing on my hoop tie and happened to see Albany Body Shop. I went in and talked to the gentleman sitting at the desk and explained to him the situation. He said come back in an hour and I will have it fixed. I walked around for an hour came back and it was fixed like magic. I did not get his name, but Mr Gentlemen was HONEST, a professional at his craft, and the price was fair. What a blessing he was. He made my day!! Thank you kind sir. You are awesome!!”
“LOVE this shop. I called about a nail in my tire and they took me immediately. I was in and out within 10 minutes and the repair was $25 flat. LIFE SAVERS! Thank you guys!”
“I randomly walked into this auto repair shop when my TPM system showed I had a loss of pressure in my rear tire. Robert was able to repair my tire and get me back on the road all in about 20 minutes from the time of my request until the repair was completed. This says a lot about a repair shop when they are helpful, kind, and go out of their way for a walk in near the end of the day.”
“Max is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, with over 30
years in the field. He’s not only skilled at what he does, but also always willing to go the extra mile to find solutions. I’d highly recommend him, and I always feel at peace knowing my car is in his hands.”
“My friend recommended this and right away I feel at home already. They do the right thing for everyone. Don’t hesitate to come here, they treat you like a family. Nice guy always, God bless ….”
“Shop is much more than just tires and body work, as their experienced team of mechanics routinely handles all sorts of challenging motor and electrical repairs. Owner Steve is responsive and honest. And their lift system can handle tall vehicles like our Sprinter van RV. Highly recommended!”
“Albany Automotive is reliable and honest. I have an old car and they treat it and me with respect. Not always the case being female. I have always been charged fairly and they give written recs for needed work.”
“Fast, affordable and really nice people. I'd give 6 stars if I could. Too many mechanics are trying to rip people off these days. It was nice to get some quality work done at a fair price. I will definitely be bringing all my business here moving forward.”
“I wanted to give a shout out to Albany Subaru service department. I was coming down to the bay from Sac and my dash lit up like a Christmas tree. Not knowing what was happening with my 2013 outback, I limped into the service department. They offered me a courtesy vehicle while they held on to my car for a few days to diagnose the issue. Initially they said it was going to be $275 for the diagnostic (bit rough but ok). Turned out to be a transmission valve body issue that needed to be replaced. Apparently it was all covered under warranty (13 year old car with over 130k miles!) and they took care of everything. Nothing out of pocket! Wanted to say thank you!”
“This is a great station where they have avoided the current trend of hiking prices ridiculously. Their prices are consistently at least $.50 lower than nearby stations, and often more. I really appreciate business owners who are not taking advantage of Covid to inflate prices. It's a good business model - then you get many repeat customers who love you. They also keep the station very clean, and there's always windshield washer brushes in water to wash your windshield with, and the store is nicely run. Thank you!!!”
“The parts people were very helpful. Printed a drawing of a differential assembly to pinpoint the exact washers I needed. Things are pricy but that is not under their control”
“CJ is so helpful, he took care of my car, we found the best solution and also solved an electrical issue with daughter's truck that 3 other shops could not figure out or diagnose. He is fair, smart and friendly. My dad started taking his vehicles there too and we are so thankful for all of his help.”
“Great experience, he showed me the condition of my brakes and gave me some great choices. The price was great and couldn’t be happier with my experience”
