They are very professional and will work with you on anything with your car. And if you cant pay in full at the time of service they will work out a payment plan with you. My family and i have been going to Foleys Garage my whole life. And trust them with any of my vehicles.
WOW! My Sister in law was visiting the Altamont area from Maine. She experienced car trouble and had her vehicle towed to S Foley Garage on Sunday. When we went to see about the possible problems and expecting the worst on Monday...We were greeted by a very friendly receptionist/Assistant (Tracy). Warmth and personality was presented before business. Sean (the owner) was right there. He informed us that there was not issue with the car that it could have been a temporary problem. He tested the vehicle twice. With huge relief we went to pay and it was refused by both Tracy and Sean. What? In this day and age of rip offs, overcharging and unnecessary repairs we encountered old school ethics. I am not sure I remember the last time I encountered this type of amazing treatment. Thank you Tracy and Sean. You are in inspiration!

2021-10-25Used this garage for years and really would not think of going anywhere else. Extremely helpful and they never try to run up the bill. Skilled work and can diagnose just about anything. Really useful in getting the last few miles out of older cars that you know you need to replace as well.As an example for their trustworthiness, once got an oil change elsewhere because I was in a hurry and was told by the other shops mechanic that I need four new breaks at close to $1k. Immediately took my car over to Foleys who confirmed that my breaks were fine, which I got another 4 years out of. Cant recommend highly enough.

2022-01-12I have unfortunately bought quite a few vehicles without any knowledge of anything about cars so I got quite a few clunkers I wouldn’t know where to start on how kind honest and amazing The entire crew is I could go on and on but I’ll give two examples I had a jeep it was shaking whenever I would break down hill I brought it to the car dealership they told me the problem would be $1400 to fix a second opinion at Foleys $380 a life changer for me.. as for my clunkers there were at least three occasions when it was not worth spending up to $2000 to fix where I would’ve try to find a way to pay that they are so honest they let me know when it’s time to stop wasting my money I wish I could go on and on overall the most honest kind Business I’ve ever seen..I would recommend Foleys to anyone at any moment I’ve had so many mechanics get me for so much money I didn’t have but I trusted Them as professionals and unfortunately I’ve lost a lot of money in the past Them as professionals and unfortunately I’ve lost a lot of money in the past I am forever grateful for everything Foleys has done for me which helps my family‼️❣️

2021-03-04Amazing people to work with. Both Sean and Traci are professional and honest people. I have had them do everything from oil changes to engine rebuilds and they always over deliver. I have worked in the auto industry and to find a shop that does this quality of work and maintains this level of professionalism can be next to impossible.

2020-05-18Never ever have I had a bad experience here. Sean and his wife are true professionals. I will never go anywhere else and I tell everyone I know about them. An honest, good mechanic can be hard to find and I found one.

2020-12-21Filey always has been and ways will be the best car garage in the Western Hemisphere. My dads go-to garage before me, he has been working on some of our vehicles for 25 years. I live in Schoharie County now and still make the trip because Ive had so many bad experiences at every would be muffler puncturing place (looking at you monroe) that I dont trust anyone else. Call ahead though, between my entire family the place is usually booked a good week out.

2019-07-10Sean Foley is a great man. Our family usually brings our cars to his garage for repairs. I have had many problems with my 2002 Subaru Outback such as ball joints, exhaust leaks, and overheating problems. I couldnt just figure out why my car was overheating so much. I have had my car getting a new radiator and both hoses fixed, and the car still overheated. So my father and I just this week went to his place, and it turned out it was a blown head gasket. Sean had explained what blown head gaskets were, and how expensive it costs to get fixed. My car pretty much is now going to be on its last legs because it has over 233k miles and its just not worth getting a new headgasket due to the amount of miles on my car.Sean has done great work with our cars, and we would love to come back. Once I get a new car sometime, I will be bringing it to his shop for repairs.
