We are a family-owned auto repair business with a focus on integrity, quality workmanship of the highest level, and excellent customer service.

Foreign Car Specialists honors most extended automotive warranty policies and we offer sweet customer rewards benefits, oil change coupons, new customer specials, student discounts, fleet pricing, and support those who serve our country with military discounts. Our auto mechanics undergo an amazing 80 hours of annual training to make certain we can continue to provide you with the best in skills, technology, and tools. We work hard to be your number one source for auto repair in the Poughkeepsie and the Hudson Valley region and that starts with developing a quality relationship with you and your vehicle.
Kevin and Lisa Eckler, owners of Foreign Car Specialists, love serving this area and are committed to providing you with quality workmanship combined with stellar customer service. Kevin opened the shop back in 1994 because he wasn’t happy with how the dealerships treated their customers and he knew he could provide dealership quality work, if not better, with far better customer service. And we’ve succeeded in doing just that!
From a welcoming lobby with drinks and snacks, to returning every car sparkly clean, to offering roadside assistance and a 3-year/36,000-mile nationwide warranty through both NAPA and TECHNET, our focus is on meeting the needs of each individual customer with the best possible service that includes peace of mind.
