Brought my car in for an inspection. Bruce pointed some things out to me that needed attention. I was aware of one item and I agreed to the service. The price was right and the repairs were done professionally. Chris had the car ready when he said it would be. I'm very happy with their work and would highly recommend them. They have a steady customer in me. Thanks!

Bruce of Key Auto was great! Found and fixed my Volvo's problem - which was NOT was other shops had said it was - at a quarter of what other shops had diagnosed the cost would be. And same day service. Definitely will go here with car issues.

Always the best! Dependable, quick, knowledgeable, and patient with those of us who are clueless about car repair. Key offers high-quality service at reasonable rates every time--over 20+ years and 2 cars for me.

Great first experience at Key Auto! Bruce quickly brought my car in, called me about 40mins later and told me I needed a new battery, and cost of labor, and I picked it up within the next hour or so. I'm not a car guy, but I felt the whole situation was honest and upfront. Such an easy experience, definitely recommend!

Bruce at Key Auto Center was able to take me right away at 8:30am on a Tuesday for a NYS inspection. It was finished within 30 minutes! I was charged the fair amount with no hidden/extra charges. Bruce was friendly and professional. I would recommend KAC to anyone looking for work done on their car.

As usual Bruce gave top notch, fairly priced honest service.

I have been going to him since app. 1980.

I had a troubling mystery stalling problem that looks like was fixed...so far , so good.

Below if there was a 9.5 rating I would have rated it....Nobody's perfect…

If over the next few weeks, the mystery problem was fixed, change my rating to a ten...

I have been a customer of Bruce, Chris and the crew for over 25 years, and I have never once had a complaint or been dissatisfied. Key Auto has a well-deserved and well-earned reputation for concern and service in Greenpoint for many years. They are attentive, exceptional at diagnosing problems, making repairs, road-testing each vehicle, and providing reminders for critical services such as oil and belt changes, routine tune-ups and annual inspections. The service is prompt, competitively priced and the staff is pleasant and helpful. I would recommend Key Auto to anyone looking for the quality, dependable service I have experienced for so many years. If you don't believe me, just ask any of the neighbors you'll meet in the waiting room!

I am been going to Key Auto since 1977. I am sure there are other excellent, honest mechanics out there but the only one I met in my life was Bruce-Key Auto.

As usual, when I brought the car in Jan 2016 for an inspection, oil and lube, it was done promptly and the bill was ridiculously low, because no other work was needed.

I tell Bruce his problem is that he is too honest and too professional. Gonna miss him when and if he retires..

Bruce couldn't have been more fair and thorough when servicing my risky eBay used Volvo wagon purchase.

Key Auto is in my neighborhood and very convent for me. I went in, dropped off, and my car received an oil change right away. The oil change was also the least expensive one I have ever had (under $40). Bruce was friendly and quick and I felt I could trust my neighbor. Bruce even found me a great parking spot on the street by my apartment when the car was finished.
