After over a year of trying to repair the 99 4Runner with over 280,000 miles on it, named Clank, I gave up and took it to TKS. They accurately troubleshot the problem to the fuel pump. It took them work, but they did it! We looked and got frustrated, so instead of buying another vehicle, I re-bought the wifes baby for a fraction of the cost. Thank you TKS!
Dillon and Tom at TKS are two of the coolest guys you will ever meet, they treat you like family the minute you walk in the door and are very good at the work they do. I highly recommend using TKS for any of your automotive needs! TKS earned a customer for life.
I’ve gone to tks a few times and they are amazing! So professional honest and hard workers! I highly recommend them I’ll never go anywhere els!
Ive been going to TKS Automotive for years now. I have excellent experience with them. They greet us at the door, and I never had a problem with there service that they provided me and my family.Thank you TKS Automotive LLC, for all your hard work on my vehicle and my families vehicles
Absolutely the most honest and affordable mechanic that I have ever met!
Good work @ a fair price.
I was in from out of state. With a menacing check engine light & state inspection coming up shortly, Dillon got us right in and took care of us as if we were long time customers. Very friendly, top notch service. Support your family owned business- they are the heart & soul of the community.
Great guys, loveable shop dog. Great, honest and fair service!
TKS is a good shop. clean, professional and honest. Tom was straight about the repairs I needed and it was done on time. Plus my vehicle is running so much better. Thanks Tom!
Tom and his team at TKS are amazing! My sons were on their way to college out West and literally a thousand miles from home. They made it to Albuquerque and stopped for the night. The next morning when they went to start the car, it lunged forward and died. Not knowing a soul there in ABQ we had it towed to a dealership. Within a couple of hours they told my son that the timing chain slipped and he needed a new motor to the tune of $6000. By the grace of God we found TKS. They opened up the engine and determined the timing was correct. Then they went through troubleshooting systematically and finally figured out the issue, test drove, checked, and rechecked validating the fix. Tom called me and talked through the details. They fixed the problem for a 10th of the cost and got my sons headed on their way to college. We are so grateful to have found Tom and TKS Automotive. I highly recommend them all the way from Memphis, Tennessee!
BUYER BEWARE! TKS Automotive seemed be a good shop, but that all changed once they got their hands on my money. Paid $60 for A/C diagnosis even after the receptionist on the phone and in-person had told me only $40. The $60 was only brought up after the diagnosis was completed, but I let it slide. . Diagnosis was wrong after I replaced the parts that the tech had recommend. Still having the same issue before the repair. Not asking for the world, just asked them to take a look and see what was wrong, after all, thats what I paid them the initial $60. Tom wasnt willing to budge at all or try and fix this issue. He found a million ways to say, no and zero ways to say, yes or even maybe. Do not recommend this company. They will not do what is right for the consumer. Albuquerque, dont waste your time and money with this company.
I gave these guys five stars because i couldnt give them ten. This is the absolute best place in Albuquerque to take your vehicles. Myself and my family have been using them for years with no problems and the best service ive seen from a business in a long time. Theyve replaced a turbo in my car, fixed coolant leaks, and fixed my brakes that i drove into nothing. Their prices are extremely fair and their work is top notch, i dont even recognize my car because it runs so much better after coming here. If it matters if you can trust the guys working on your stuff, then bring it here.
Great service all the time. quick, simple and friendly. they are very knowledgeable and focus on their clients 100% recommended! go here no elsewhere needed for all your auto needs.
Great service I took my truck in because it idled rough. Tom checked it out and identified the issue with the injectors. Took the time to show me on the computer what the truck was doing and the test he run to identify the issue. He recommended the injectors be replaced and said he could do the one that was bad or replace them all which is what I did to prevent having an issue again. The truck runs better now then it has in a long time. Great job Tom and your office staff were great also customer service is what I look for in a service provider and your at the top. Ill definitely send friends your way and bring my truck back for service when needed. Keep up the great work.
We have taken all our vehicles to TKS and feel t hat they are really good about isolating the vehicle problem and coming up with the most effective solution. They have always recommended the minimum that needs to be fixed and do not try to sell us on repairs that are not needed...like a lot of other mechanics we have used in the past have done.
TKS Automotive is the best shop Ive dealt with. Every other mechanic has left me with the feeling that Ive just been screwed. Not so with TKS.I had another shop replace the clutch in my Ranger - it lasted less than a year. TKS replaced the clutch and it feels better than the factory installed clutch. They also fixed the engine oil leak (rear main seal) that the other shop couldnt get right.They also did an alignment on my heavily modified front 4x4 suspension. They nailed it! The truck tracks and rides perfectly now.All in all, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED shop.
I love the staff at TKS. They are always honest, helpful and respectful of me and my time. I recommend them to all my friends. They take the time to explain everything to me and let me know my options to not waste my time or money!! I will never go anywhere else. Thank you Sara, Tom and all the staff at TKS!!
I have had two of my cars repaired at TKS Automotive over the past several years: a 2006 Infiniti and a 2008 Buick Enclave.Tom, Sara, and the staff are always prompt, friendly, and the work is done on time and for very competitive rates. They have a nice waiting room with a puzzle of the day on a dry marker board (and its a good one).They also have a play room for small children to keep them busy while you wait.I recommend them to anyone in the Albuquerque area.
I have gone to TKS numerous times and have never had any issues with them. The work is OUTSTANDING and the people there are great. There is a reason that they are always swamped and busy….it is because they do a good job and people keep coming back. I don’t ever consider going anywhere else. I HIGHLY recommend anyone in the metro area taking their automotive issues to them. They are very responsive as well.
TKS is the worst! If you value your time and your money, do not take your vehicle to TKS. I called on Monday to schedule an appointment for Friday and took my car in Thursday afternoon to make sure they would have all day to get it taken care of. By 10am Friday I hadnt heard boo from them. I called only to find out that they hadnt even touched it yet. By noon I still hadnt heard anything back. Got a call at 12:21 p.m., which I returned at 12:28 p.m. telling me there were two error codes relating to the transmission (I already told them it was a transmission problem). I authorized them to take it apart and see what was going on. Again, wait, wait, wait...by 3:00 p.m. I still hadnt heard anything so I called once again and told that he was still looking at it. Got a call back at 3:36 p.m. telling me that a major part has to be replaced (truly, this was not a surprise), but they didnt have the part and it would be Monday before they could get it. I asked why it took 7.5 hours to find this out when I already told them it was a transmission issue. Her answer was that it took so long because she had to wait for me to call her back. Really!!!! It took me seven minutes to return her call and that caused the delay. I had to kick them in the butt all day long to even begin the process and then to stay on task. Save yourself a lot of time, aggravation and money and DO NOT take your vehicle to TKS. The Worst!
Took my sons truck in for an engine install and after 2 and 1/2 months, I had a $3,000 engine install, to include A/C, which was not included.Shows you need to get estimates in writing. Please take your cars elsewhere. I was taken advantage of, feel like I was bent over and molested. Will not go Back, Will not recommend.
This place does not know what they are doing. I took my car there because it lost power. $600.00 later they said they fixed the problem. Picked up the car after they were closed. The car was worse then when I took it in. We took it back in and they tell us they dont know what is wrong with it!!! What Machanic doesn’t know what is wrong with the car? So apparently they guessed the first time what could be wrong. And replaced parts that probably were good. And said it was fixed. That was a lie it was worse and not to mention my odometer and other lights on the panel didn’t work anymore!
Friendly staff and fair prices!
Went there due to a client of mine that works there. They were informative with the repairs needed and confirmed my approval before work was started. I knew the expensive of the repairs performed before arriving to settle up. Nice staff.
Great Service! I brought my car in on a Monday morning. I got a call right away saying the parts I needed were going to be ordered. It was finished and ready the next day. We have used them for more than car and always have a good experience. TKS makes dealing with these stressful situations a lot easier. Nobody better in Albuquerque!
Tom is a super nice, reliable and honest guy. I had a lot of things on my Audi A4 fixed at TKS. They offered the dealership quality service, and much cheaper price!
The staff there are awesome. Very nice people. Will work hard for you.
For over 3years, they have taken care of my cars. When others think its impossible, they always find a solution and give you peace of mind.
Very friendly and helpful.
Trust them to take care of my car
Another shop I take a lot of Cars 2
Friendly and honest service!
Do not use this garage. They are not the original TKS Automotive, Sara and Tom, who were recommended. We used them on 6/11/19 and have not had a good experience. We will not return.
Ok
Would not go back
