Authentic people who won't steer you wrong. My mom took her Volvo here and now I take my vehicle, even though it's a Toyota. They're great!

Fair, Honest, and Trustworthy. Vol-Car is my shop for any foreign vehicle I own. They also replaced my son's jeep motor. The mechanics are very skilled and knowledgeable. 7

Amazing service, friendly people! Took my Volvo S60 R there for some items that were outside my DIY abilities. Carol, Rodney, and Chuck are very knowledgeable and accommodating. Great place to take your car, for laymen *and* gearheads. This place services ALL CARS, not just Volvo!!

Great people and great service. They have helped me with a few Volvos and done a great job. They get it done on time and I really appreciate how they fix what it needs and not sell a bunch of unnecessary services. They have worked on other brands of vehicles for me as well with the same great results. Highly recommend.

Breath of fresh air following a disrespectful interaction with the Volvo Dealer Service Department. After a rant by Cameron Clifton at the Volvo Service department, we came to Vol-Car Inc. My husband was promptly greeted by a smiling face and the mechanic correctly guessed what we came for while walking out to take a look at our vehicle. He confirmed what was suspected and offered the most cost effective option in fixing the problem, even though it was by him. Outstanding customer service.

I've had a couple of Volvos over the years up to February 2019, and always brought them to Vol-Car. Originally because one of my daughters is friends with a girl whose family owns the business. I'm glad that brought us together because Vol-Car is fantastic. Tallahassee is, oddly, a town with more Volvo repair shops than you would expect for its size. These folks are without a doubt the best, and we've tried them all. They are very friendly and prices are very fair. They are good at explaining what they do and in diagnosing problems. Repairs and maintenance are done quickly and I've never had to go back because work was done improperly. They really know their stuff! In 2019 I got rid of my most recent Volvo and bought a BMW. I asked if they work on BMWs - which I was pretty sure they did - and they said they do. I've taken the BMW in twice, once for an oil change and once for a brake job. The work was done by Rodney who knows BMWs inside and out. He did a great job as usual. No matter the type of car, there's no place I would trust more than Vol-Car to work on my cars. I recommend them very, very highly!

Always had a positive experience especially with their mechanic Erik. Solid work at a good price. Finding a trustworthy, reliable mechanic is a difficult thing, but I found that I can rely on Vol-Car

I appreciate the honesty and integrity of this business. Chuck, Patti and Rodney are the absolute best! They took care of a problem for me this morning at no charge at all. They are amazing. I won't take my car anywhere else. They have my trust. The availability of a loaner car when you have to leave your car is just the icing on the cake. Love Vol-car! Carrie - white XC70.

So far we have taken our son's 2010 C70 T5 to Vol-Car Tally twice this year. Each time Carol and her team have saved us several HUNDREDS of dollars. She has earned a loyal customer going forward. With the savings on the previous repairs, we are able to get more fixed to get our car in perfect shape and will be back in the next couple of weeks! Thank you Carol and Vol-Car Tally team!!

Our family bought a Volvo 240 in 1992 and thanks to the good people at Vol Car it is still on the road today. The Volvo got my two kids through high school safely and now performs as our second car for me and my wife. Chuck at Vol Car has maintained the car for the last 22 years. Over that period I have never been disappointed in the service I have received at Vol Car. They have always been very dependable and fair in their pricing for their services. I recently had them work on our other family car ( Honda ) and received the same great service. If you want great automotive services I would highly recommend Vol Car. Robert Magee Tallahassee

Be careful, this place seems a little money hungry. I recently was trying to sell my car and the person looking to purchase it took it here to get inspected. We were told that there were thousands of dollars worth or repairs on the vehicle and the buyer declined to purchase the car. Recently, there was a recall on the car and we took it to the dealership to get it fixed. We asked them to do an inspection on the vehicle, specifically to what we were told what was wrong with the vehicle, to a reasonable extent. Here is what they had to say on it. "The vehicle is in fantastic condition. The fluids were fine and oil was not bad (Vol-Car said the oil needed to be changed and was low). Tires were in great condition (Vol-Car said the vehicle needed new tires since the date on my tires were dated 2022, by the way less than 10k miles have been driven on them but the date says it all I guess). Windshield wipers do not need to be replaced (Vol-Car said they did). Filters needed to be replaced, only $100 (Vol-Car got that right, finally)." Just to be fair to this, they said there was something "shaky" with one of the tires but couldn't determine what was wrong with it (expired tags so they couldn't DRIVE to determine what it was). Which could have been a reason the buyer didn't want to buy the car. With the inspection at the dealership, nothing was found "shaky" but, I do not know if the recall fixed that even if it was true. Here is another thing that Vol-Car said needed to be taken care of. Timing belt needs to be changed at 120k Miles and other routine maintenance at 120K. My car has 108K miles on it. This place literally put routine maintenance on the vehicle inspection quote and said it needed to be taken care of immediately to the buyer. Also informed the buyer that unless they look deeper into this vehicle, there could be over 2K worth or repairs on the car. What an absolute joke. Im glad there was a recall on this car and we got it looked at, because I thought I was going to have to sit on a car and put more money in it before selling it. I hate company's who abuse the knowledge they have to try and get an extra dollar on people. Update 06/20/2024: I am glad you literally verified everything that I said. Congratulations. You say the oil was "dirty" and "low" not to the dealership. You say front tires are "worn" and dated 2020 (my error) but not to the dealership. You were right on the air filter, which I said you were. I did say you called out the "shaky" suspension, which I did not put on you, fully. I love how when doing the inspection, the water pump drive belt is now covered in oil. I am not going to even continue on the routine maintenance that was expressed to a concern to get in taken care of. I understand the inspection being in favor of the buyer, not to the point of making up a crazy story on what is needing to be done and telling the person that there is potentially over 2k worth of repairs. SO, thank you again for proving my point about your company.

Cannot say enough great things about Volcar! Purchased additional warranty on my Volvo instead of buying a different vehicle just to keep coming back to them. Great customer service and response time!

Very honest and fair. I do a lot of my own work on my Volvo XC70 and unlike some shops they are very supportive of that, and even share some tips. Some things are beyond my ability, tools, or desire to do and Vol-Car performs these repairs for me at a fair price and excellent workmanship. They are the only place I will go for Volvo repairs. When my newer Volvo comes off warranty then they will work on that one too!!

Vol-Car is a reasonable alternative to the Dealership after ones odometer rolls past the warranty. (An event for which Volvos are famous). They understood my S60 potentially has 3 different brake shoe/rooter specifications. Service was prompt, staff were friendly. Give them a try.

Vol-Car, Inc. in Tallahassee provides the most professional, thorough, efficient, and communicative service that I have ever experienced in car services and repairs. The staff there has helped us out with issues in three different cars over the years, and our son’s car, as well, and each time, the service that we have received has been far above and beyond the norm. It is my pleasure to recommend Vol-Car to anyone in need of automotive services.

My A/C system recently started acting up in my Gen while on a trip. I had it checked and recharged while away. The recharge ran me just over 100 bucks and it barely lasted the way home. By the next morning it was just semi-cool air blowing from the vents. I have heard a lot of great things about this shop, so I decided to take my car for another check. Turns out it needed a whole new compressor which they diagnosed the mechanical issue for free. The friendly receptionist at the front desk provided a quote the same day and said it may take a day or two to complete the work. But, by noon the following day she called and said it was repaired and ready to go. Turns out that the parts were ordered overnight which I totally unexpected. Eric, the mechanic that worked on my Genny thoroughly explained everything involved in the fix. The cost was very reasonable for the work; especially if you know what OEM compressors can run. I hopped in the car yesterday and my A/C was back to totally chillin' . Happy-Happy-Happy ! My best advice, don't second guess taking your car/truck to this repair shop. They are very honest, fair and reasonable. Thank you Eric and Vol-car. My Genny thanks you too. I'll definitely be recommending you to family and friends, not just here on Google. A++++ Sincerely, CCtally

I can’t recommend this shop highly enough. They specialize in Volvos but also work on other brands, and their knowledge and skill are outstanding. What really stands out is their honesty and directness. They don’t sugarcoat things and it’s refreshing to have a mechanic who communicates clearly, consistently, and without any runaround. They maintain professionalism at all times, explain exactly what’s needed, and back it up with phenomenal workmanship. Every repair and service I’ve had done here has been top-notch and reliable. If you want a mechanic who tells it like it is and does the job right the first time, this is the place to go.
