Europe Car Service

I drive old Volvos, so a reliable mechanic is a matter of some urgency to me. Eduardo and Frank have repeatedly refused to bill me for small services performed. They have frequently told me my car didn't need a particular repair, or didn't need servicing (such as a timing belt) yet, even when I was quite willing to do whatever was necessary. If they can't find a problem, they have not charged for looking. I have had work done at a number of shops, but EuroCar is the one I have the most confidence in for both quality and price. The owner, Eduardo, ran the repair shop for Atlanta's largest Volvo dealer for many years, and clearly knows his stuff. They specialize in Volvo's but service other European makes as well.

They are two Chilean guys in Dunwoody who work from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. monday through saturday. Lalo has been a mechanic in atlanta for years and Edgar is the shop manager. They only really work on Volvos. Their prices are high, about $76 or $80 per hour, but they aren't going to charge you a penny unless the car actually needs service and they know exactly what it is. The customer is always able to speak with Lalo, the owner and head mechanic about their car's problem and the two guys have an incredibly transparent business, so it's always easy to know what is going on. They even help me with the do-it-yourself stuff, knowing that they won't make any money. I will also bring to light that I am incredibly biased. Lalo is like a family member. He has worked on our Volvos for ten years now. Our cars have clocked a collective 250,000 miles under his watchful eye. I once took my car to another mechanic because I was out of town and the mechanic quoted me $250 for a relay switch on the brake lights and told me it would be a few days. I called Edgar and Lalo, they told me not to have the repair done and bring it in. I took it to Edgar and Lalo, cost $50 and I was out in 30 minutes.
