Wow, where shall I begin? Well there I was ... clunking down the road in my old clunker when all of a sudden I heard and almost felt a strong whoooshing noise, it was so loud and ominous, coming from the engine compartment and then on top of that I sensed that out of nowhere my brakes were peculiarly soft and that the motor wanted to stall. What was going on I asked myself and the only answer I could come up with was that "The Model Garage Masters of the Universe" would know so I straightaway (without using my brakes at all - I swear) made my way there where they took so short a time to diagnose the problem and fix it than it took me to write this review. 6 stars !

All went fine, as usual. I hate rating with stars. I do not value digitized responses. I do not like superlatives. If I did not trust you, I would not keep coming back. :) I have been a customer since 2000 or 2001. I intend to return. Keep doing what you are doing.

I have brought my Volvos to Model for over 12 years. My vehicles have had great service there and even complex problems have been tackled by the mechanics at Model. As long as I own a Volvo or a Toyota I will be a Model customer.

As always, superb service!

You know how you can get cranky when all of a sudden the "check engine" light starts to glow? Well as I went straightaway to the Model Garage I sensed that soon my troubles would be over. But hell the great mechanics and their entourage of support there did not even allow me to get all worked up over my broken down/woe-is-me/what-is-going-to-befall-me-next condition for they solved the issue so fast I was still standing at their incoming desk beginning to describe what I believed was the genesis of the problem when they told me to hit the road - with, of course, my ready-to-roar/watch-me-go/ain't-life-pretty car. The problem: A faulty crank sensor. These folks are veritable geniuses. How did they know, yes how did they sense, and with the speed and assurance that is the hallmark of their terrific auto repair service, take care of my crankiness with such demonstrable and adroit precision and care, by knowing that the "check engine" light really indicated that my mood was giving the needed clue to what produced it. I guess that the alarm of this light going off was but for them the equivalent of the veritable light bulb going off above their heads, illuminating solutions and revealing the heart of the matter. I can tell you I ain't cranky anymore.

Esay to work with. Prompt diagnostic and good explanation of repair work needed. Appreciate the flexibility do some repairs and wait on others that are nice to have but not affecting anything safetywise.
