I've been going to the Model Garage for over 15 years and they're fabulous!!!! - trustworthy, honest, friendly, helpful and give A+++ service. My car and I are VERY happy! I would strongly recommend them.

Good referral to tire place but another problem detected - axle. Now what? Do you do this work or them?

We would be happy to take another look at it for you at no additional cost. We are often on the more conservative side for recommendations than other shops. It just may be a difference in opinion. Just let us know you are coming, we can take care of it while you wait and even show you what is going on. Robert, Owner, Model Garage

This place really is a local gem. Started coming here some years ago after several neighbors recommended it. I like the people who work here; they seem honest, kind, polite, and knowledgeable. They don't push extra services and are happy to offer advice based on the car's age and usage. Most recently my 10-year-old car's "check engine" light came on while I was on the freeway! - I pulled off and phoned MG. Felix could not have been nicer; told me just to get it towed in and they wouldn't charge me to keep it overnight (it was a weekend). The car's transmission had a leak, which was a bummer, but Felix explained everything they had to do, and I felt reassured that they were charging a fair price for the work. Also, I really like the free ballpoint pens. :)

Thank you JayDee, In a world where small, family owned business are disappearing at an alarming rate, especially car repair in Berkeley. We are doing our very best to keep doing what the Model Garage has been doing for over 44 years. Taking care our our neighbors and their vehicles. Robert and the entire Model Garage team.

I just got my hands on a pre-owned Lexus IS 350 and I wanted to double-check for any hidden problems. Felix was super professional and gave great advice about the vehicle. I left the car in the morning and picked it up by noon. The report was thorough and I am very pleased with the service.

Thank you Amie, A non biased/second opinion can be worth it's weight in gold. Looks like you ended up with a super great care and should be able to enjoy it for many years to come. Robert and the entire Model Garage team.

My car is so happy to visit the Model Garage. I appreciate the care and skill of their work, and the helpful, warmth and friendliness of the people at the front desk...Felix has been that person on many occaisions. Thank you so much for your excellent service, both to the human and automotive customer!

Thank you, We so appreciate you! Taking good care of the humans is just as important as taking take of the mechanical stuff. Just like going to the doctor, bedside manner goes hand in hand with quality work. Robert and the entire Model Garage team.
