Berkeley Auto Repair

This was my first trip into Ackerman's. I've seen them on San Pablo for 30 years. We finally got a volvo and I only thought of these guys to service it. We started with an oil change, next up is the 30,000 mile service. Bruce and the guys are super pro and offer terrific service. It's secure to know a business has been around for so long and take the care needed to take care of cars.

Thanks for the kindness and the help!

Excellent service over many years. Competent, professional, accommodating.

Very knowledgeable and professional.

Quick service. Fixed all issues quickly.

took care of all the problems we mentioned was very courteous, and communicated immediately when they found a problem with the car GREAT value for cost

Excellent, in every way.

Bruce Ackerman and his crew are great. The place is an east bay institution for a reason. Super knowledgeable, deeply experienced, always kind. Legendary pros.

Was sad when we moved to CO as we lost our best Volvo service center, but all was not lost. Daughter stayed on to work in the BUSD so when I was able to get CO license plate I drove our 2010 S40 back to Berkeley. Of course by then it needed a service and Bruce was as great with my daughter as he's always been with me. Very detailed with what needed to be done (and my daughter googled what he quoted and was happy that what he said was exactly what needed to be attended to) and as always everything was done to a high standard, even under quote on a couple items. I'm sure she will be back for one final service before returning the car to CO and then heading off to grad school! Cheers Bruce and thank you and your crew for all the years of exempelary service!!!
