Berkeley Auto Repair

Model Garage never disappoints w/quality and honest work. In contrast to dealers, I never feel that unnecessary work is in any way promoted

Hands down the best garage ever. I won't bring my Volvo anywhere else.

You guys are so wonderful to deal with, it's almost a shame I don't have more reasons to go in! I will be calling, actually, because my new brakes are making a grinding noise and I don't know if that's normal or not. I know you'll set my mind at ease. Wish you could help with medical problems too!

As usual, Model Garage got the job done quickly and priced reasonably. I had a sputtering 2005 Volvo S60 R with only about 35,000 miles. Two other mechanics, including McKevitt Volvo could not determine the cause. Don found it immediately and fixed it.

I have been a loyal customer of the Model Garage for the past 30 years. As always, the shop delivers reliable and friendly service, and freely offers advice on a wide range of topics related to cars. With Don's help, we just bought a used car for our son (my old Volvo hand-me-down was starting to need too many repairs). We limited our search to cars that can be serviced at the Model Garage.

I'm so happy to be back with you. I really trust your ability to diagnose issues with my car and not do unnecessary work. Your honesty is appreciated in all matters, something I didn't really feel was happening at the dealership, sadly.

We've been using Model Garage for at least 20 years for a series of Toyotas and Volvos. Wouldn't go anywehere else.

I have never in my life felt so well taken care of by an auto repair garage. And my small Toyota Truck runs like a charm...every time.

I've been going to see Don and Peter for over 5 years and they are the BEST!!!! :)

Late last Friday, while taking my dogs to the dog park, my check engine light came on. Don believed I needed to have my codes checked and told me to come right over. While I walked the dogs around several blocks, the great Model Garage crew fixed the problem and saved my weekend plans, as well as my car. Thanks so much and they were also kind to my dogs - Rebecca
