After a recent service at another shop in a different state, the engine light came on. I searched…read moreYelp for a trustworthy place and came across Alberto's, which had excellent reviews--and now I understand why. I brought my car in to have it checked out, and Jay went above and beyond. He carefully ran diagnostics to identify the issue, explained everything clearly, and offered thoughtful advice. His recommendation was to try a catalytic cleaner first and see if the light came back on. What really stood out was the time he spent with me, ensuring I understood my options, and the fact that he didn't charge me anything despite so much help. He also provided a few solid recommendations for future car care. If I ever have another issue with my car, I'll definitely be returning to Alberto's.

I was 15 mins early but still had to wait. Customer service okay not friendly. Also make sure you check everything before an inspection at that place becuase they will charge you just for a little light bulb for your license plate $30 plus the inspection cost $37, I'm thought I would be lucky because I already purchased a light bulb but it was the wrong one for license plate bulb which was so small, so they will be truthful for there car inspection.

I share this because I called 3 other places no one answered and no one ever called me back. Second he was so friendly, kind and compassionate even over the phone! Third I'm writing a unique review because I didn't have any extensive work done on my car. When my car wouldn't start I had it towed to Ambato. I was nervous all day thinking something major and expensive was wrong. In the end it was a dead battery. He didn't even charge me for the inspection. He didn't try to make up issues. He was honest straight forward and I was blown away. Since I had it towed I went ahead and had the oil changed lol for good measure and to give them some business. I do not wish any car issues especially the expensive kind on myself anytime soon but you can trust that if I do I'll be calling Ambato first and settling for no one else. If you want professional, quality, kindness and fast service this is the place. Don't hesitate!

They were great and friendly. Best service in the area by far. Highly recommend for anyoneread more

I went back the a few days later and let them know where they sent me to the service area. I sat there close to 3 hrs waiting until I finally asked and the GMC service department helped me not the Milea service department. He informed me it's an easy part to put in but has to be ordered. The guys from the Milea service never came back to let me know what was going on. It is now a month later, and am still waiting for this "easy part" to come in. The Milea service department does not call me to give me an update. I am the one that has to call and ask but when I do they let me know they will check and call me back. The service is horrible because no one ever calls me back. I should not have to do their job and keep asking about this part. I am very disappointed with this place and should have gone to the Rye Subaru because I have had a great experience with them in the past. The next time I purchase a Subaru it will not be with Milea

This business deserves no stars. I am only forced to select one star in order to leave this review,…read morewhich I strongly disagree with. I am posting this review regarding an engine replacement performed by G & A Auto Diagnostic Wheel Alignment Center Inc. that has resulted in ongoing mechanical problems, safety concerns, and unresolved financial issues. On January 24, 2026, I paid $7,067.15 for an engine replacement. Immediately after leaving the shop (within approximately 2,000 feet), the engine began backfiring and the check engine light came on. When I contacted the mechanic, I was told to "break the engine in" and informed the engine came from a junkyard with an unknown history. The next day, I discovered a significant oil leak. I reported it and was told to return the following week despite the severity of the issue. Since then, I have had to return multiple times due to persistent problems that remain unresolved. I am currently unable to drive normally without repeatedly clearing the check engine light, raising ongoing safety concerns. I was later told the engine had not been tested prior to installation, which in my view is a major deviation from standard repair practice. After all these months, the mechanic (JR Cisneros) has now presented three options: 1. Remove the engine, issue reimbursement, and allow me to source another engine for him to install, while still charging labor costs 2. Wait for the one junkyard supplier this business uses to locate a replacement engine 3. Keep the defective engine and have him rebuild it for a separate labor fee Additional issues include: * Disconnected wires hanging beneath the transmission * Incorrect battery terminal installed, creating safety risks * Flywheel sold as new but appearing old and rusted * Charges for parts that may not have been necessary, as original components were reportedly reusable * A recently purchased alternator found to be damaged after the repair Communication has been inconsistent, with limited meaningful updates despite multiple attempts to follow up. I was eventually given options not disclosed at the time of service, including engine removal with conditional reimbursement dependent on a third party, an indefinite wait for a replacement, or paying additional costs for a rebuild. As a result, I have incurred additional transportation costs and lost income opportunities due to the lack of a functioning vehicle. My request for a full refund and reimbursement remains unresolved. Based on my experience, I would advise caution when considering major engine work from this shop due to unresolved mechanical issues, lack of transparency, and ongoing safety concerns.
