Santa Barbara Auto Repair

Always great friendly service

Excellent service as always. Total trust in owner & mechanics. I wish I would have found Swedemasters 36 years ago when I bought my first Volvo! I have been using Swedemasters since about 2009 and have always had the same level of trust and reliability and honesty in the business, especially the owner Tim.

I have been with Swedemasters for years and wouldn't go anywhere else with my Volvo. Their service is thorough, efficient, and fair. Add to that friendliness and consideration, safety measures in place for Covid requirements, and a spotless shop.

Outstanding service. Excellent customer communications. Honest, reliable and friendly. You can rarely find a business so gracious to their customer. Tim is tops!

Always dependable service for our 2006 V50. We've got 128,000 miles on the car and are very happy with Tim and his technicians any time we need their help and expertize. It is always nice to have the car washed too before picking it up.

My check engine light went on and I headed to Swedemasters. They fit me in and I was good to go in a couple of hours. I always appreciate how responsive and efficient they are. So glad to have excellent Volvo servicing available in S.B.!

Tim Kitt has provided absolutely excellent, excellent service over the many years I have been taking my 2002 SAAB to him, whether for regular maintenance or for the more major needs of an aging car. Thanks to Tim, I seldom remember that I am driving an 18-year-old car.

Swede Masters is a breath of fresh air after having taken my car to an alternate approved Volvo service since purchasing it in 2003. Swede Masters is interested in developing positive relationships with its clients. It can usually turn around an order in a day or less. Mr. Kitt, Karen and the qualified techs are very straightforward in explaining diagnoses and proposed solutions. They are experienced, understand automotive design, and the pros and cons to alternate repair options. Repair pricing is competitive. However busy Swede Masters maintains a very clean professional shop. Swede Masters personnel are personable and courteous. My recent experiences at Swede Masters with expected new problems on an older car have been no less than pleasant, and consistently positive, equally through soaring temperatures and fog.

Once again, great job.

I was, as always, treated with the utmost courtesy, and they took me right away, so that I could just wait while they did the work, then get on with my day. The work was done quickly and efficiently.
