I came here to get the lock on my driver's side door fixed. This was something they said they would be able to handle even though my car is a Ford and they really specialize in imported cars. Still, they came highly recommended to me and for the price of labor ($200+), I figured hey, they should be able to handle it right? WRONG. When I came to pick up my car, the battery had died while it was there! They gave me the excuse of it having been left there for a while (it was only there for two days) and that they have to move it inside at night. Neither of these things would have killed the battery. Someone must have left a light on in my car or something. A bad look either way. Then I drove the car home and noticed the lock was still busted! It can be locked using the key manually, but not using the remote. In fact, the lock button on the remote locks all the other doors while unlocking the driver's side door! If they had been the reliable auto shop I believed them to be, they would have checked this in the initial diagnostic and before giving me my car back and taking nearly $500 of my money. But they did not. Turns out it needed an additional part to fix a wiring issue. Again, I believe this is something they should have noticed in the first place, especially for how much they charge for labor. I told them no thanks and I'll take it to another auto shop that won't let my car battery die while it is there.

New review: About 3 years ago (?) I moved from Albuquerque to Tucson AZ and my vehicle itself has been in Deming. After sending my vehicle to all the most reputable shops in Deming only to get ripped off, I sent my vehicle back to these guys. It cost me money to have my vehicle shipped to ABQ Quality Auto but it was worth every penny. They are professional and efficient. Art and Seth have earned an outstanding reputation for this shop and it is well deserved. Emmanuel is great too and you can tell he works hard to preserve that excellent reputation. God Bless you guys and thank you for working on my suburban. OLD REVIEW (several years old but still relevant): These guys are on point. If you are looking for your go-to mechanic, I would highly recommend these guys. After having 2 other shops look for a problem (it turns out I had pointed them in the right direction but since Im not a mechanic they ignored my input) ABQ quality located and permanently fixed the problem within a day. Thanks guys!

I've been trusting my family's cars to Art and his shop for years. He offers honest advice, answers all your questions, and stands behind his work, which is top notch since he's a master technician. He's literally saved me thousands by pre-inspecting used vehicles before I buy them. I have peace of mind knowing he cares about me and my cars- that's what really earns my business!! (posted around 2016) (update 12/5/22) Dependable and reliable: that's what you look for in a car, and the same goes for a mechanic. At the last visit, Art told us the oil plug threads needed to be fixed at the next oil change; at this visit, Seth confirmed it and completed the repair. Dependable and reliable has been 100% of my experience at ABQ Quality Auto and I can give no higher praise. Highly recommend!

  • Matthew Benes

I was on a road trip passing through Albuquerque when car problems forced me to call a tow truck. I didn't know the town or where to turn and thought my Honda might require special knowledge to fix. Reviews for the local Honda dealership are awful. Reviews for ABQ Quality Auto Service are awesome. The choice was easy and proved to be the best auto repair service I've ever received. Car trouble sucks, car trouble when you're a thousand miles from home really sucks. Art, the owner and head technician, quickly diagnosed the issue and had me back on the road in no time. He provided honest, affable, professional, and expert service. If I lived in Albuquerque he would without qualification be my go to for all auto needs. Great Service, Great Price, Great People

  • Pat Elder

My usual mechanics referred me to Seth, as the best Honda diagnostician in Albuquerque, when they couldn't determine the source of my Accord's intermittent performance problem. Seth performed extensive diagnoses but could find no mechanical issues but did notice a potential intermittent ground issue. The car has worked without issue since he cleaned the grounds. The dogged search for the cause of my car's problem and thinking outside the box resolved the mystery of the intermittent performance. The charge was quite reasonable,. the service excellent and the personnel helpful and personable. I had submitted a CarFax review and apparently screwed up selecting the stars. My review should have been 5 Star as that is the accurate review.

  • Laura H

ABQ Quality Auto Service recently worked on my Honda Pilot. They truly made my 12 to 13 year old vehicle feel brand new again. I haven't ever felt it run so smooth since I have had it in my possession, and I feel that their work has just given my vehicle the ability to continue running for several years longer than I expected. They do great work, and they are also very friendly and honest. If you are unsure of where to take your vehicle, you will not regret taking it to Art and Seth. I moved to Albuquerque a year and a half ago and had yet to find a mechanic that I wanted to continue going back to. Fortunately, the job they recently did on my vehicle, I know that I have found the auto shop that I will go to from now on.

  • Avalon Jay

ABQ Quality Auto is THE BEST auto shop in New Mexico and likely one of the best in the U.S. Art and Seth are down to earth, professional, honest and trustworthy. I'm really particular about my vehicle, my dad was a mechanic and my brother is a mechanic in Arkansas. When it comes to double checking my car before a long trip, Art and Seth are the only mechanics I trust. There's so many garages who try to sell you services that you don't need. This is not the case with ABQ Quality Auto. They have over 30 years of expert experience and they have the best customer service I have ever experienced. Go to ABQ Quality Auto for all your auto needs, you'll be glad you did.

  • Andy Gonzales

They are the best in town! This was my 2nd time coming to the shop and they were able to get me in less than 3 weeks with as busy as they are that's quick! What drew me to this shop is the initial customer service of setting up an appointment and when I came to drop off my car the continued hospitality. What I appreciate the most is their communication. With any updates they reached out to me before they did anything else and provided all options before proceeding. They were able to fix my car the same day and honestly I my car feels like a whole new car! I definitely recommend them to anyone who wants straight forward communication.

  • Jerry Mcpherson

Art determined the source of a leak on my Accord, ordered and replaced the seal and test drove the vehicle to ensure the leak was repaired. Very knowledgeable Technicians and excellent customer service. They far exceed the Honda Dealership maintenance shops in the area. They are now my go to shop for all my Honda repairs and services. Took my Honda in for A/C diagnostic. They took my vehicle in, determined the A/C compressor was bad. Replaced the compressor .excellent service and professional repair and got me in a day earlier so I had transportation to pick up the car. Thanks again guys!

  • Shelley Correll

Fabulous car repair place. My check engine light came on while traveling across the country. Even though they were very busy, Art took the time to diagnose my problem. He then ordered the needed part and had the car repaired it in just a couple of hours. We were back on the road feeling good about our car. If I lived in ABQ this would be my go to car shop. I can't say enough good things about this place . Honest communication, good prices, quality work.

  • Sam Browne

A+ business, Art and Seth are always fantastic, not only in the quality of their work, but also in their customer interactions. Both are always happy to assist with any questions I may have about service intervals, job procedures, etc., and are obviously very well-versed in Honda-specific issues. Their prices are fair and overall are an excellent-quality mechanic shop not commonly found in the age of quick-oil-change-chain dominance!

  • Jerald Gard

Quality is right! I'm not from Albuquerque and was in a time crunch to make sure the car was going to run without failure. They squeezed me in despite their full shop calendar. Taking my circumstances into consideration, they bent over backwards to accommodate me and also did fabulous work repairing the car. If I lived anywhere in the Albuquerque area, I'd bring all my vehicles to these folks for all regular maintenance and repairs.

  • Jamie Lenberg

Best experience I’ve ever had with a mechanic. Art was very professional and nice. I needed some last minute service on my car before I moved out of state and they were able to get me in the following day and my car was ready that evening. Art even drop me off at my hair appointment! They have ASE Certified mechanics and the prices are very reasonable. Hope I can find a mechanic like this in Arizona!

  • geoffrey Luehring

I brought my 05 Honda Odyssey to them. to look at a few of my concerns. They gave me a timeframe that they would call be back after they looked at the issues I asked on. they called me back before they the deadline they gave me ,explained the issues with the van and gave me cost up front prior to doing any work. I highly recommend them because of the communication quality work and affordable prices

  • Jeremy

They are very fair with there prices. They looked at my ball joints and stated that the boots needed to be replaced but my ball joints were sound. Considering Garcia Honda stated that the ball joints and arm needed replacement for well over a thousand with labor just goes to show that ABQ quality isn’t in it for Ill gotten money. Will continue to bring my Honda CR-V here for any needed repairs

  • Carmen Vallejos

ABQ Quality Auto is the best! They figured out a problem that wasn’t clear and no one else had discovered, and it ended up up costing significantly less than what was projected. I really appreciate that they took my truck during an emergency- it had stopped running- even though it’s not the kind of vehicle they usually work on. Awesome work, honest, and great customer service!

  • Martha Crunkleton

I showed up with no appointment and a list of things my sixteen-year-old Accord needed before I could drive 800 miles more to get back home. Emmanuel and Art were FANTASTIC at fixing my car and communicating with me. If I stood on my desk and yelled this as loud as I can, that would still understate what a great job they did. Albuquerque is really lucky to have these experts.

  • Dr. LMC

Top-notch professionals! Excellent and affordable work! I had the clutch on my 2013 Toyota Corolla Sport repaired. Two months later, I am still satisfied with the workmanship. I plan to go to Art and Seth for any and all future car mechanic needs. My sister recommended Abq Quality Auto Service. Finally, something she was right about …

  • Colette Village Center

I went in a couple weeks ago because I hit a box on the highway and my Chrysler was barely drivable. Art really helped me out. He managed to fix my car in about an hour and was able to do it without having to order an expensive car part I was worried he would have to get. If you need a fast, affordable, quality fix, this is your place.

  • Yasmin Khan

These guys are honest and real. They don't treat me like an idiot, which I've experienced at other shops because I'm a woman. Other shops have tried to outright scam me, like I don't know my own truck that I've been driving for 20 years, how much parts cost, or what average rates are. Art and his team are the only people I trust.

  • Angela Mckinley

The only place I trust to bring my car. I know I will get an accurate and honest quote with quality work and excellent warranties. I own a 20+ yr old car and these gentlemen help with all the maintenance a car that old could need. I'm happy to know I will be able to pass this car down to my daughter who also loves this car.

  • ktea party

Best auto shop in Albuquerque, especially for Hondas. So quick at getting things looked at. Had a small hiccup while they were fixing the car (my brake pad unexpectedly cracked), and they offered to completely cover the cost to replace. I have nothing but good things to say about Art and his team. Cannot recommend enough.

  • DGP

Handled my pre-purchase inspection in the best professional manner expeditiously. Well written detailed summary is a great help. He discovered a few things that are invaluable to know, such as pretty major mileage tampering. He has a solid vibe all round, likable style, courteous & efficient, immediately reassuring.

  • Ryan Sloan

Art and Seth are top notch Mechanics and great people. Things with them are really straight forward. They are honest and trustworthy and I take my car to them for everything and they always get it right for the right price. This is an unbeatable shop. I would recommend them highly. A real diamond in the rough.

  • Garrett Schlosser

My hyundai broke down, got it towed here after talking with Emmanuel and they were fantastic! They took care of a bunch of stuff I had been neglecting on top of the original issue and was super reasonably priced. The itemized quote is super great and overall a great experience. 100% coming back to y'all.

  • Crystal Vigil

A friend referred me to Art. Art helped me with two car issues I’ve had with my Pontiac and he did a great job. No further problems with my vehicle. Fair price, fixes the problem, and easily explains the issue. I highly recommend coming here if you have car issues.

  • Angelo Lopez

Awesome, local shop that provides excellent customer service and automotive service at a great value. Highly recommend. Art and Seth always provide all performance and cost options to the customer so that they can choose the optimal solution to fit their needs.

These guys are THE BEST!! Thank you Emmanuel, Seth, Arthur, and all the techs. I highly recommend them. They squeezed me in for 2 cv axles on my Accord, and got me out by 5pm. I really needed my car tonight too. Thanks again guys!!! …

I needed a Clutch Replacement for my Honda Civic, I called 2 other shops and was told 3 days to do the $1800 job, I called ABQ Quality Auto Service and they said depending on parts availability, likely 1 day, maybe 2 and $1600. I dropped my

I feel very fortunate to have found Art and his auto shop. I was driving across the country from NC to CA when the A/C on my Honda CR-V died while in ABQ. My next stop was to be AZ where temps were exceeding 100 degrees. Based on the good
