Got an oil change & tune up here, and it was great. They were able to see me right away and were transparent with prices. The woman at the front desk was very nice and welcoming as well. Will definitely be coming back

They've been taking care of my vehicles for over half a decade. They've always provided excellent service. They're great down to earth professionals. Who has never disappointed me and kept my cars on the road. I will continue coming here another decade if possible.

Came in for an oil change and some estimates. The oil change was pretty fast and fairly priced, but some of the estimates where outrageous.

The best place to get your car fixed in the neighborhood from Little Italy to Bridgeport, and of course, Chinatown.

A-K Auto was recommended by a family friend. The service provided to fix my car was great. Customer service at the front desk was okay

Ak auto is my go to place for any car issues. I really appreciate their honest and transparent pricing and they do good work. Their quotes are always more affordable than what they quote you at the dealers.

Have brought my car twice here and had nothing but positive experiences. Definitely will be my got to when I can't get it done myself. Diagnoses issues well and won't pressure you to get it done there.

I can't recommend A+K auto. I brought my car in to diagnose a thumping tire a few weeks ago. It cost $90 for them to diagnose it, which I was fine with. It took 3 days, which was an inconvenience. They determined that it was a front strut was caused an imbalance in the rear tire which made it wear unevenly. They quoted about $1600-1700 to have the front struts and crossbars replaced. They also estimated another $2000 in unrelated services like spark plugs, air filter, etc. that weren't needed. I was able to take the car to another mechanic that changed the struts and crossbars for a total of $900, much much less than A+K quoted. Then I bought and had new tired installed. It was only when I went to get an alignment that they discovered the rear wheel was way out of alignment, and is not adjustable. Meaning that the original wear was from bad cross bars, and not the front struts like advised. So while the front struts may have needed to be replaced, they were not the immediate issue, and now I have to have more work done. And A+K auto charged almost twice what another shop did. I was told the strut assemblies from Mercedes are self contained. They do not take long to install. I won't be taking our car here anymore unfortunately. I believe they routinely overcharge. RESPONSE TO AK REPLY: The estimate you provided did include other maintenance costs. It was $3600. I tallied only the front strut related costs and it came out to $1700. Ignoring the spark plugs, serpentine belt, etc.

I have used A-K Auto for years and love the work they do. Sam and the team are amazing! In the past I have had minor mechanical issues fixed, done a full muffler replace, tune ups, etc. Most recently I had some body work done to replace a fender and trim, plus a new side mirror. After the repairs at A-K, everything looks better than before it was damaged in the first place, and it was done a day faster than quoted! They are always very upfront and honest with costs, materials, parts etc, and they are very good with communication throughout the process. Highly recommend 5/5 stars!!!

A-K Auto has good service and a knowledgeable staff! They are friendly, honest, and help keep your vehicle running long and in good condition.

Been going here for years, A+ service every time. Affordable, friendly service at less than half the cost of your dealer. Have sent several friends here and they’ve all had a great experience.

Complete trash place, been there today to ask about noice in my car dashboard, old lady in front, in rude & disrespectful tone told me it'll be $160 just to check what's wrong. Can't even get the estimate before that.. will never go there or recommend anyone. Can't give less then 1*.

Great business Great service

I called, visited, tried to communicate and ended up asking my keys back, simply because I felt so difficult to talk to the ladies in the front or the mechanic in the back. Yes they are very busy but making things clear would help get things in and out faster I suppose? I am not ok with $75 magically becoming $95 (not to mention that it should only be charged if I decide not to use their shop but they wrote it down as if it was a base charge) on the job sheet and the lack of certainty on basically anything. On top of that, impatience and not willing to listen is what I felt during the entire conversation. Last but not least, an FJ Cruiser is an FJ Cruiser and it is not a PT Cruiser... I later took it to a place nearby where they have a good amount of enthusiasm and at least a smile on the face.

I went to get my tires repaired and they didn't say there was no time ,and then just pumb some air, and they took my 10 $ ,and told me that it ,so pumb air need 10 $ .very disappointing service. from the manager to the staff are all big liars.

I've trusted them with my family car for over 10 years, always honest, always knowledgeable and professional.

My wife and I both have taken our cars here and they have always handled everything perfectly. Very friendly, great quality service performed quickly and fairly priced. We both drive older cars and have been looking for a trustworthy mechanic shop that won't try to take advantage of you or pull one over on you. I know my way around cars having driven and worked on older vehicles most of my life and usually know when I'm being taken advantage of but I didn't need to worry about the folks at AK who were very honest and trustworthy. Their shop is a bit far from us but I wouldn't hesitate to bring either of our cars there again or send a friend to them.

Great Service! Friendly, knowledgeable, honest. Highly recommended!

It took them 30 plus days to fix my car, but at least it got fixed though. Good quality repairs, my car is back driving again.

Lady at the counter is rude. If she is replaced business will flourish. Mechanic people are good. They don't accept many credit cards. So take cash.
Dec 06, 2021
Sam and his wife are the best, always do good work, and are honest. He'll show you what needs to be done and is transparent about everything. Highly, highly recommend if you're looking for a mechanic. We won't go anywhere else .
