Anker's Auto Service

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Honest, Skilled, and Truly a Lifesaver! Anker’s Auto Service is hands down the best place to take your car in Schenectady! My Chevy Malibu had a running rich code, and after taking it to a Chevy dealership, they were completely useless—they couldn’t fix the problem and actually recommended that I just dump the car. Frustrated, I kept looking for answers and ended up at Anker’s. That’s when I met Dave, the owner, and let me tell you—this guy is the real deal! Unlike other mechanics who waste your time and money, Dave knew exactly what was wrong with my car after running his diagnostics. No guessing, no unnecessary part replacements—just straight-up knowledge and skill. To put things in perspective, another rogue mechanic I went to before Dave charged me $100 just for a diagnostic, only to list a bunch of possible repairs totaling $1,350. And when I asked him, “What if these repairs don’t actually fix the problem?” he couldn’t even give me a straight answer! I was basically being scammed. Dave, on the other hand? He not only pinpointed the actual issue immediately, but he also suggested using a quality used part to help me save money. That kind of honesty and customer-first mindset is rare in this business. Plus, as a first-time customer, he even gave me a discount coupon to help with my repairs—who does that anymore? On top of fixing my car perfectly, Dave also took care of my state inspection after the repair, saving me an extra trip. His professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for his customers blew me away. If you’re looking for a mechanic who is honest, skilled, and truly cares about doing right by his customers, Dave is the guy. I honestly believe the City of Schenectady should give him a citizenship and statesmanship award for staying so true to his profession. Anker’s Auto Service is the only place you need to go. I’m beyond grateful and will never take my car anywhere else. 🚗💨 10 stars all the way! P.S Evans....

I had a great experience at Anker’s Auto service. The Service is very organized and reliable. My car was inspected meticulously and got free refills. The information about its status was true. Being a women, is not fun to go to car shops, they usually try to trick me and make me buy services that my car didn’t need just because they wanted to make money of me. But in Anker’s auto service It’s the first time I receive such an honest feedback.

I recently had my second oil change with Anker and was pleased at the exceptional service and friendly staff. I had to make a last minute appointment before returning to Philadelphia. My oil change was done in 30 minutes flat. Would highly recommend to all for any car needs.

Car started leaking transmission fluid on the highway, had to get towed. Didn't know the area, asked the tow truck operator for advice where to take it, he advised Anker's. Took his advice, and was thankful for it. Dave Anker and his crew got me fixed up and back on my way in no time. Extremely cordial, knowledgeable, and competitively priced. Was more than pleased with my experience. On a side note, while I was waiting another customer, an older gentleman, struck up a conversation with me. He was singing Anker's praises. Though it was my first experience with them, I have no doubt he was right. Thanks Dave and crew for making my tough situation go as smoothly as possible. Much appreciated.
