My '08 C70 T5 was giving me a concerning engine service warning (not a check engine... Volvos are weird). They got me in same day and fixed my issue. Not only that, but they took care of filling my tires and fixing another rattle issue that I didn't even mention. These guys do good work and I am very grateful for their service.

Me my family & I sent friends to use angel to repair our cars and also bought cars. Angel charged for work that was never done and they ruined the very thing they were supposed to be fixing. It cost me thousands of dollars to get the work they were supposed to do fixed after I paid him thousands. They he had the audacity to blame it on me for not bringing the car back to him when he screwed up so bad the first time. Yet refuses to take any responsibility in anyway which I have documentation proving that his head which I will post on his review later today. Do not use them there are not bigger criminals in the yard and industry

I took my 2008 volvo here for a list of repairs and some preventative old vehicle things. $4k later and the check engine light was on by the time I got home. The new gas cap caused an evap leak to be exposed, which is not their fault. However, I took it back in and they said there was nothing wrong and they reset the code. Came back the next week, they still couldn't find the leak and said the sensor was bad and wanted to charge $300 to fix it. I had already been waiting there for 2 hours so I said maybe but not today, $300 is a lot for something I can keep an eye on with a $30 code reader. The guy said okay and that he would grab my keys. He disappeared and 20 minutes later I had to walk in the shop and demand they give me my car back. The guy had gone to go get the sensor and they tried to convince me to just "wait another 20 minutes and we can have the new sensor in." Having to beg for my car back as a teenage girl was not a fun experience. I'm glad I stopped them before they put in the $300 part because I took my car to a different shop where they fixed the leak and the stuck valve that likely caused it. I regret spending this much money on my car here and do not trust their quality of work. They may seem honest but they are not.

Great service, great response time, and refreshingly honest! You can trust these guys. I own a 2006 Volvo S40 T5 AWD. The alternator failed on Christmas Day. In an attempt to save money, I called around Salt Lake City to find a replacement alternator (found one for $282, local dealership wanted $850). Once I found the part, I took it to a neighborhood mechanic and asked him to install it. It ended up costing me nearly $800 to get the new alternator and have it installed. However, my car still didn't work when I picked it up from the mechanic - the engine had no power and I couldn't go faster than 50 MPH. In a panic, I searched "Volvo repairs" on Google and found this shop. I read the online reviews and felt like I could trust them. So I called at 8:30 AM and asked if they could get my car on the schedule that day. They fit me in and I had my car back by 2:00 PM. Turns out the first mechanic didn't tighten all the hoses. Angel performed a diagnostic (as advertised), reattached the hoses, and I was treated very well throughout. They refused payment for their time and effort because Angel felt that his work was covered by the free diagnostic work he offers. He may not have earned money for this particular job, but he earned a loyal customer today. I'll be going back to these guys for years to come.

Angel and his staff are the best! I have had four different Volvos, that he has worked on. (Even sold me the last one) I have been taking my cars there for over 10 years and he is fair, quick and helpful. I refer everyone that to European Car repair. Prices are fair, parts are good and I like that he gives me a list of future things to consider, if I cant afford to do more then the most important repairs. His staff always goes the extra mile and they take care of their customers.

I took my vehicly to them for oil leak from around valve cover gaskets area and had them put a timing belt change due to high mileage. The work done was very poor quality and had to pay double for what should have been fixed the first time. Sure they give a discount but more than once I had to take vehicles back for rework and most of the time they come up with new problems. There work is very, very unprofessional and with a smile as they try to get more work out of u. I give them a 0 out of 10 scale especially for dishonesty. The parking lot is not very clear of debris. Screws and bolt's all over there holding area. They have a trailer in back full of old parts, which I suspect they use used parts and charge for new parts prices. No proof just suspicious. They do the work so fast which to me shows the poor quality performed. I'll never go back to them again.

Samuel is the best mechanic I've ever had! He's honest, professional, and timely. I have always been satisfied by the work he does on my '02 Volvo. It was hard to find someone in the area who knows how to fix older Volvos, and I tried many places before finding him. I am very grateful for the service and hope to continue here as long as my car lasts!

Diagnosed and fixed my AC on my van, works great and at the best price after calling several other shops. Would have given 4 stars, but they replaced a belt after telling me it was good -turned out it wasn't, and then did it without updating me. Nonetheless, I would consider going back to this shop.

One of the best places I’ve ever taken my Volkswagen. My car broke down and I needed to get it in the same day and they worked with me and got it fixed within a DAY! I ran over a rock a few days later and they fixed the underneath of my car for free and replaced my tail light without even charging anything. It’s hard to find honest mechanics but these people are so kind and honest!

Provided excellent service. We had the same service quoted at another location for 1200 and we were only charged 700 here. Wont charge you for repairs that are not needed. Thanks.

Never in my life have I left a positive review for an auto mechanic. I am pleased to finally have the rightful opportunity to do so! After having many of my personal, family and work vehicles serviced here I can say with certainty, these guys are phenomenal. I trust them wholeheartedly. They have consistently showed integrity and honesty in multiple situations where others may have taken advantage. One instance in particular was when our Toyota Tacoma broke down on the freeway. Smoking like crazy. Temperature gauge rising. There was a Master Muffler within a block so we got it in to be diagnosed since it was convenient. They told us we needed a new radiator. I didn’t trust those guys and payed to have it towed to my always dependable guys here. I received a call letting me know it was just a radiator cap that had come loose and was now missing. They charged us the $21 for the cap and we were on our merry way!! I have multiple examples of these guys being honest and incredibly helpful. We won’t take our cars anywhere else!

This shop is amazing and the team here provided an outstanding service. I dropped my car off to get brakes done. It was finished in no time. Quick, clean, and professional. I highly recommend.

Had a part replaced and the part broke that same day. They replaced it with OEM parts without charging the difference. The broken part damaged one of my rotors and I had to ask for them to cover the replacement. I had a couple of rotors I gave them and they offered a normal price for both but I asked for a discount since one of them was damaged by the faulty part and they obliged and gave me a big discount. They also replaced the axle for free because they believed it had been damaged. They work quickly and have probably unbeatable rates. I do recommend them and trust their work. They also have shop kitties that will walk around sometimes and greet you. I saw some cat food outside for strays which is mega brownie points!

Had our van in for a valve cover gasket replacement, during the repair they removed my coolant reservoir and just discovered it was never reinstalled.. I had sent a video and message to them following the repair that the coolant was gargling and that it was not making that sound before! (They never responded) it was an occasional sound so I didn’t pay much attention and my car never overheated.. Went to a different shop to discover the coolant reservoir was gone!! I need this issue resolved and am posting this review until the issue is made right.. this negligence could have cost me an engine!! Attention to detail is a MUST!!! That’s what we pay professionals for

High praise for Angel and his team! Water pump went out in our Camry on I-15 on a Friday afternoon. Pulled off and found European and Japanese Auto Repair. They were able to get us in, repaired and back on our way before they closed for the day. Fair pricing and no hassle, just friendly service. Highly recommend them. Thank you!
