Very happy with my experience at Forthright Auto Repair. Check Engine Light issue revealed need to replace cam shaft position sensor. Auto parts store recommended Forthright as place to get it fixed. They are a busy shop. Appointment scheduled 3 weeks out which was ok as it was not an emergent problem. Also asked them to check an intermittent issue I was having with not being able to always shift out of Park. The waiting area was neat, clean and didn’t smell like an automotive garage. On the day of my appointment they were able to take me back home even tho they do not have an official shuttle service. While they weren’t able to have my car ready that day, it was the following day and they picked me up to get it back. They were able to find the intermittent shift problem and repair tho it was not one of the 2 most common issues. Everyone was very personable, work was done and has 12 month warranty on parts and labor. Cost was reasonable. I’m glad I’ve found a place to help me keep my 20 year old vehicle on the road and running safely. Highly recommend Mathew, Manny, David and the rest of the crew. They also do basic oil changes and emissions testing.

Came in from out of town and needed two fleet vehicles serviced in a short time frame as I was leaving asap. All other shops could not get oil changes done in the time I needed them done. I called up forthright auto repair, and they got both vehicles in for oil changes very quickly. Looking for a shop I highly recommend these guys as I talked with Jeremy the service manager and he made it happen. Thanks again for getting them done.

I gave a call to Forthright and Jeremy answered the phone. He was friendly and professional and I immediately felt that he would give me an honest go. I needed a new starter and he patiently explained the process of troubleshooting and what would be involved in the process of replacing the unit. I really appreciated that because I'm in the repair business too, I just work on different things (computers). I had my truck towed to him yesterday morning, and man, it was done by 2:00. BTW, he informed me that it would be a good idea to replace the battery, which I appreciated because I, too, had neglected maintenance of the unit. Lol, it almost scared me how quick and sharp my truck started. I now have a new great mechanic and t top it off, he's just down the street. Kudos to you Jeremy and crew for an awesome experience! Right on brother!

Took them 13 days to find out it was my fuel pump. Everytime I called they said they had to retrace my wires because they seemed to be all replaced, which isn't true and I believe they were just talking about me leaving some stuff open when I was trying to self diagnose my car. Then proceeded to tell me my car wouldn't start when that was the problem the entire time on top of my ignition switch being sticky when I told him twice what the problem was with it and that wasn't what I was trying to get fixed. The guy did not even know about the code my car was throwing I had to tell him when I already told them about it when I first set up an appointment. I came in after two weeks to say I really need my car, Somehow they magically found out the next morning after I came in what the problem was. On top of being told they usually don't buy the most expensive parts but proceed to buy a 238$ fuel pump I didn't know much because this is the first time having to replace it. Online I find most of them for 50 to 107$. On their site they say they have financing but as of 8/7/24 they don't have it "set up" not sure why they advertise it if they don't even have it. Either that or the guy was just lying to me, also was asked if I would be paying with cash or card twice but was never told about the difference of using my card instead of cash and was charged 28 extra dollars. They fixed my car amazingly and fast when they actually looked for the problem, it works well now. If they were just too busy to look at my car I would've rather been told the truth.

Went in for an oil change and inspection! Had some suspicions of suspension issues. They were extremely quick and friendly when letting me know what was MOST urgent to repair. Didn’t try and push extra services but did let me know to follow up with them to address areas of maintenance. Oil change with OEM filter. Seems I have found a reliable auto shop.

Forthright Auto Repair did a cam phaser replacement on my truck. A major engine job. My truck was still under warranty and they did a really good job. More power and quicker response with the throttle too. My thanks to Robert and the crew!

Robert Ferguson, Service Manager provided a thorough and transparent experience while servicing our 2009 Toyota Tacoma pickup truck, outlining all repair costs beforehand. The experience was excellent from start to finish.

Traveling on our way home to AZ while pulling a horse trailer we had an issue with the air suspension on our vehicle. We contacted Patrick and he was able to work us into their busy morning schedule. Their awesome technician was able to patch the air line and got us back on the road quickly. If anyone ever asks us for an honest, reliable mechanic in ABQ, we’ll definitely recommend Forthright Auto!

Patrick and Eric were great in my time of need. My family was traveling through(AZ to WI) and the dreaded check engine light came on as we entered NM. Stopped by an AutoZone to find out the diagnosis, a cannister valve. My vehicle also was rumbling during idle. I was concerned. I later after we check into a motel, tried to find a place near by with good reviews and a BBB rating. Most after New Years were booked or costed more than what I saw it should cost online. I found Forthright through google. I contacted them first online, was given a quote, it was reasonable. I did shopped around, but in the end, they had what I was looking for. I got there, greeted, by Pat and Eric, they ensured me to get me back on the road ASAP. After perhaps over an hour, they got be out of there with a new price that was fine as there was another issue, but fortunately since I still do not have an extended warranty(that will change soon or trade in) I was out of about 275. It was for replace a sensor and labor. I recommend them and I hope you safe travels.

Mike was a very great help in my situation. I had a blown head gasket and he helped with the warranty and everything else that I could do in order to pay for everything. They helped in every aspect and I would recommend anyone here.
