This place is the only place to go if you have especially old car/truck. Many other repair shops will not handle older cars. My 33 year old truck needed a motor replaced. They ordered a remanufactured motor and installed. They did excellent jobs with installation and completely fixed any following up minor issues and adjustments. My hands up to Ali and all other mechanics. Thank you! read more

Ali and his crew is AWESOME. I brought my truck in that experienced a nightmare by a mobile mechanic that didn't know what he was doing, and Ali assured me that my vehicle would be safe by the time it left his shop. He delivered in more ways then one. He was professional, took his time to evaluate what was wrong, and kept me updated every step of the way. I highly recommend Alaska Professional Auto, and for all your auto needs. Awesome people! read more

Amazing! Got my car fixed and in a timely manner. 10/10 recommend heading to Alaska Professional Auto next time you have car trouble

If you are looking for a reliable place to repair your older vehicles, this is it! I called Ali Monday and right away. He was enthusiastic and said that they could fix what I needed and try to get me out ASAP. He took the RV Tuesday at noon and found the parts I needed for our 1985 Chevy jamboree RV as well as getting me the vehicle by the end of the day on Wednesday! (I called last minute after being out of town longer than anticipated and was crossing my fingers to be ready for a trip to Homer this Friday. Ali made it happen! read more

Great customer service! Forthright and honest. Went above and beyond fixing my truck. I'll definitely use them again.

Took my car there for stalling and they charged me 225 for plugging in the computer and saying they fixed my car my car is still stalling after they told me they fixed the problem read more

Phenomenal service. I cannot get enough of these guys, hard working, easy going, and fantastic customer service. If you go anywhere else in Anchorage for your mechanical needs you are going to the WRONG places. Alaska Professional Auto will forever have my business as long as I own a car. You are doing yourself a disservice if you trust anyone but APA with your car maintenance. 100/10 read more

Ali wouldn't explain what was done to it. so I could possibly do it myself. now I gotta pay someone else to actually have it fixed. paid 600$ for shady ass explanation,on what he did to the car. took a lot to write a review. Took me a lot to just write a review Instead of going back and getting on his ass. same myself the trouble. hopefully Spare someone as well Of wasting money read more

He mentioned typically has a head gasket issue and that kind of vehicle .charged about $2000 held on to like a week / he did a quick fix probably could have bring it back to him but just don't feel like spending more money .loland only change a sensor on the engine and clear the codes every time I picked it up they came on like 30 minutes later and the car eventually broke down when it was still fixable but read more

I called to get a quote for work on my vehicle. The guy was extremely rude.. He told me just drop it off and will get to it when we get to it. He wouldn't even tell me a price he told me oh that will take me a while to look up. And then he started yelling at me telling me what I'm trying to help you here so I guess that just isn't going to work for you. No dropping my vehicle off and not knowing when I can pick it up is unacceptable. Not knowing the price before I drop it off is unacceptable. No you were not helping me out Please do not go to this rude place read more

These guys are total ripoffs. Charged me $888 to change wheel studs. Less than 2 hours work. I would not recommend them. They have a big picture of the last supper on the wall.....what a joke. read more

If you're looking for an honest and dedicated mechanic in the Anchorage area, look no further. While driving through Anchorage en route to Colorado, I stopped at the shop to get a mechanic's opinion about a weird thud sound happening while turning and accelerating. It was 4pm on a Saturday, and Ali (the owner) happily welcomed me and took the car for a spin to figure out the problem. Ali immediately knew the source of the sound and spent the next two hours working on the car. As a student, I was terrified about a massive bill or a complicated fix required to make the drive south. I told Ali about my limited budget and how I needed to get back for classes in a week, then braced myself for the expected bad news. While I was waiting (on the insanely comfortable couches), another customer/Anchorage local told me that Ali is "brilliant" and that he refers his friends and family there...I soon found out why! Ali did an incredible job to make sure my car would make it back to Colorado and that I didn't have to spend an arm and a leg on repairs. He went above and beyond to cater to my situation - both in terms of my car and my finances. I'm eternally grateful to Ali's generosity, thoughtfulness, and dedication. Cheers to the best mechanic and crew I've ever met..take your vehicles here without hesitation. Thanks a MILLION, Ali!! read more

This is the only place I go for car problems, and I've come a lot of times. The price of the work is fair, it gets done quickly, and the owner and staff are nice. I've come with all different problems on multiple cars, and they fix the problem every time. If you need a good mechanic, this is the place. read more

I called because I saw that they worked on range rovers and latch to the back of my vehicle wasn't working and Ali had it fixed in about 20 minutes. On top of that he did not charge me. Absolute best service ever I would definitely return. read more

Ali is the best. Good & trustworthy mechanics are hard to find, but Ali has always gone above and beyond. He also takes time to get to know his customers, something you can tell by the slew of holiday and thank you mail from customers that is pinned to the wall. I happened to find Anchorage Professional Auto by luck when I first moved to Anchorage. My friends car, which she had kept in storage for the past year, wouldn't start. Ali's shop was the only one open on a Saturday at 5pm. Not only did he drive us out to the vehicle and jump start it so we could get it to the shop, but he and his team stayed late to replace her battery so she would have a car for the rest of the holiday weekend. He has always been kind and honest, and his prices are fair. I will remain a loyal customer and highly recommend him! read more

Walked in here today looking for new headlights and high beams since mine went out on the drive down from Fairbanks. No appointment was needed and the owner gave a good discount. Good service. Wasn't too long of a wait for last minute work. read more

In an industry with a plethora of rats-these are the good guys. Please do yourself a favor & come here. My car's alternator stopped turning over about 4 p.m. on a Saturday. I needed a tow to the nearest mechanic, luckily my car decided to break down near Alaska Professional Auto with Ali, Jerry & the team. I arrived sweaty and with a heavy heart. Ali had answered my anxious phone calls several times with assurance and helpful information. He actually asked his guys to stay late, on a Saturday, to finish my car so I could get home. The price he charged me was more than fair-no extra for staying an hour and a half late, after closing time, just to help me out. I felt like family. "I can't believe you are doing this for me" I said. "Well, that's what we do. We help people. That is why we have been in business for over 30 years" Ali said. They are the best. Then I got a call 48 hours later and they checked up on me! Unbelievable, go see them and tell them Steph sent you! read more

This shop stands by their work and was very fair in my dealings with them. They allow customer provided parts, which is very rare in Anchorage, and finished the work in the time they quoted, for the price they quoted. A month later the part they changed failed (a remanufactered power steering pump) and they replaced it again for no charge. I'll be back if I need more work done to my truck based on their business practices. read more

Owner is RUDE! As with Kunai C. and Shannon S. the owner, Ali, was very rude. I asked if he charged for estimates (which his ad and her personally told me no). I took my motorhome in for an estimate and when we went to pick it up he charged me $300 for "diagnostics". I have waited 2 weeks for his estimate to fix and when I called he yelled at me and said he didn't know he was supposed to give me one. When I told him he was being rude and if he wanted me as a customer he needed to speak to me differently he put me on hold. When he came back to the phone he still wasn't any better. I suggest they hire someone in the office that has better customer service skills if they want to continue business. read more

NO STARS. Horribble and Extremely rude owner. His name is Ali. very nice to convince you that his shop is the place and before doing anything on the car they figure our whats the problem and then seek your permission before proceeding with the repair. He calls next day saying that the car will be ready and the total is 500. I did not authorized him to start working on it and said that if i asked him to stop in the middle of the job he will charge me more. We were left with no choice but to get our car back.We did tell him how unprofessional he was and will never recommend him he did not seem to care as there was more suckers like u there who go to him. He started yelling and cussing on the phone when i said why did you proceed without asking. After repairs he refused to give the old part back. Said he sends it back to the company. DO NOT GO THERE. read more

My family used to only go to them, but the customer service really has gone downhill. There is always at the very least a 20 minute wait to even speak to someone, and the last time I called to ask a quick question right when they opened I was on hold for 10 minutes. I understand being busy but I don't think they're that incredibly flooded with calls the minute they open that they can't talk to me for two minutes. They've always been polite I just don't appreciate the long waits when I am the only customer in the building or being on hold for such a long time. read more

Excellent customer service...they are really friendly and willing to accommodate your needs. Their prices are very reasonable, quotes are well explained and the have the job done on time and within your budget. I'm very pleased with them. read more

Unhelpful at best, exceptionally rude at worst. Calling for a price quote, the employee I spoke with gave me a price, and when I asked how he arrived at that number, was too busy now, unable to take down my phone number and demanded I fax him "everything" in order for him to explain the breakdown of his estimate or else "I can forget about it." When I asked what "everything" entailed, again, he was too busy to explain. They may do great auto work (they may not), but I will never know as I will take my business elsewhere. read more

This is the only shop I will take my vehicle to. They have always treated me very well. They are honest and stand by their work. I've been ripped off in the past by mechanics, but I've never had a problem here EVER. I've had minor work done and recently had them replace my motor. I highly recommend them. I've sent family members to them and they won't go anywhere else either. No one touches my vehicles except for this shop. They have a customer for life. read more

My truck left my daughter and me stranded on the side of the road for over 3 hours. Not one person stopped. After another mechanic in town that i called never showed up, I found Alaska Professional Auto. The mechanic I spoke with was very professional and so helpful. He came to the location of my truck and had it fixed in record time. Thank you, you saved my day and now the first place i will go to for a mechanic! read more

Would give 0 stars if I could, we took a our car in there to have 1 brake looked at because it was making sounds and he said he would take care of it and that he will call if anything else is wrong with the rest of them so that way we will know before he does the repairs. I come back to pick up the car and the bill was over $500 for him "replacing all the brakes and rotors" and lied to me and said he called my sister and she confirmed the repairs on the rest of the vehicle, so I called her right in front of him and she said he never called her and she didn't confirm the repairs... end of the day we ended up having to pay for all of it and when we left or brakes sounded worse then they did when it came in. the OWNER Ali was very rude and disrespectful and most importantly isn't an honest man and is more interested in the money then service. I would never go back to his shop again or recommend anyone else go there, save your money AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! read more
