I strongly caution anyone against doing business with Spot Auto. My experience was not only frustrating but also a glaring example of unethical and careless practices.
First, the process was unnecessarily invasive. I’ve purchased vehicles before and never had to jump through the hoops they required—personal references, contacting my HR department, and other intrusive steps. Still, because of my situation, I proceeded.
On the day I went to pick up the vehicle—scheduled a week in advance— and took off time from work to make sure that I would be able to just go in and out and pick it up however it wasn’t even ready. I waited two to three hours before finally getting the car, only to find out later that it was riddled with issues. They put used tires on the vehicle, and I ended up sliding off the road the next week when it snowed and getting into a fender bender with another vehicle because of these tires that had barely enough tread to even pass. When I went to go get the tires changed the mechanic said I don't know how these tires passed inspection. After driving only three to four thousand miles, I discovered they hadn’t even changed the oil, as in there was no oil in the engine whatsoever. Now I can understand a vehicle that has extremely high mileage having this issue, but the vehicle only had just over 70,000, mi when I purchased it. So it didn't have an oil consumption issue nor was the model that I purchased known for having oil consumption issues, despite slapping an inspection sticker on it. The fact that SS Auto Repair 1331 Albany St Schenectady NY 12304 passed this vehicle for inspection is suspicious at best—it seems like they’re doing each other favors at the expense of customers’ safety.
To make matters worse, the owner 'Moe' offered me $100 as an “apology” for the inconvenience which I knew was an admittance of guilt. While this might seem like a goodwill gesture, it felt more like an attempt at karmic absolution—a way to sidestep accountability by offering a token gesture or being “upfront” about their actions. This mindset is deeply troubling and rooted in an occult or satanic belief system. Regardless of whether you believe in God or not, the idea that wrongdoing can be justified by making it visible or offering partial compensation is absurd. Harm is harm, and karmic retribution doesn’t just disappear because you admit to or try to smooth over unethical behavior.
I’m sharing this experience to warn others. Businesses like Spot Auto rely on complacency and apathy to get away with practices that jeopardize customers’ safety and trust. Don’t fall victim to their shortcuts, negligence, and manipulative tactics. If you value your safety, integrityand peace of mind, stay far away...

Read moreI recently purchased a Lexus GX 460 from Spot Auto, and I must say, the experience was outstanding. Kyle, my salesperson, was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. He was always there to guide me and kept me informed every step of the way, which I deeply appreciated. However, what truly sets Spot Auto apart is the exceptional service from the owner, Moe.

He went above and beyond, not just ensuring my satisfaction with the purchase but also taking it upon himself to fix the issues at no extra cost.
