Berkeley Auto Repair

As always, Model Garage is the best. My car sounds like new. Really fast turn-around from drop-off to pick-up. Walkable to Ashby BART is a big plus, too. Thank you!

Top notch Customer Service. Excellent communication skills. Very understanding and accommodating staff. Easy to find location. Availability of parking. It can’t get any better !!!!!!

Easy in, easy out. Quick service and they even rotated my tires which was needed. Glad to know a trustworthy location to have my car serviced.

After too long a time back at Mc Kevitt San Leandro (always disappointing) I have returned to Model, which, as a matter of fact, always was the best—skilled, efficient, honest, and truly nice people.

I've lived in Berkeley now for 7 years, without a regular mechanic. Model Garage came highly recommended and I thought, why not give them a try? Shelby could not have been more friendly, kind and patient. I look forward to returning next time my car needs some tlc.

Great service!

Model Garage continues to provide personalized auto maintenance and repairs at the lowest possible price after decades of being in business. They are honest and stand behind their work.

Model Garage has been my family’s go-to mechanic shop for 30 plus years. The ownership has changed over time, but they continue to provide personalized, top of the line car maintenance and repairs at the lowest possible prices, given current parts costs.

Losing a catalytic converter isn’t fun, especially if you’ve had a Cat Shield installed. Unfortunately, the bad guys are adapting and a more secure shield is now a necessity. Model Garage understands this better than anyone, and provided me same day replacement of the converter (not cheap!) as well as better protection. The car was only unavailable less than a day. Great service!

Model Garage was responsive and quick to repair. They were available for questions and gave me fair estimates. I felt very confident driving away with my vehicle and will return for additional work when needed. Thank you!
