Santa Barbara Auto Repair

Worked magic on my XC90. I was having revving and stalling issues and was going to sell i….but they made it run like new and it has been dependable and stress free for a couple years now 😊. Thank you!

Good morning Karen, Tim and Armando are helpful and pleasant. What a great team! And I’ll quote “There is no place like home” thanks so much for your performance. I’m impressed with your page presentation, and must agree with everything you present in it “THE BEST CAR SERVICE” because of you. Blessings! Ps: I click 5 stars and only 4 I get, just know that I'm not good for technology, and English. Your are the best! Conchita M

Work was completed in a timely manner, staff is curious .Procedure was clearly explained. Will certainly return again when needed.

Per usual, excellent job at a fair price. I don't know what I would do without Tim and team. Being an owner of 2 old Volvos, it gives me great relief to have such an excellent repair shop at hand. Tim is honest and never tries to upsell. He will honestly tell you what is wrong with your car and do all he can to help those of us with limited funds (i.e. after-market parts if available, which are always top notch). Swedemasters is the finest Volvo shop I've ever had experience with, and that is saying a lot as I've owned 5 Volvos and lived in various cities with my cars. Thanks again Team Tim! Always a pleasure!

My late model Volvo had a software glitch. The team at Swede Masters determined that with their technology (same as the dealer's service dept) they could likely fix the problem but there was a chance the fix could damage the hardware, potentially leaving me on the hook. Therefore, they advised me to have it repaired at the dealer, under warranty. Their transparency and honesty are appreciated and I will return for non-warranty issues! Now it's the 100 mile trek to the dealer. Sad I can't do it local, but those parts can be expensive!

Thanks for the great job!

I have been going to Tim's garage for years - always honest and great service for my Saab or Volvo.

Excellent experience all the way around. They really know the nuances with the Swedish and German autos.

excellent service!!

Tim and his staff always do excellent work and go the extra mile for me and my family. No one wants to have work done on their car but when it is needed, I am happy that they are there! Karen is awesome as well! What a great team.
