I am moving out of state for a new job, and I won't be in Washington to spread the word in person about Jim at James Auto Works Volvo Repair. I've always been a Toyota, Honda, and Subaru guy. So when my girlfriend wanted a pre-owned Volvo, I was a little hesitant. Jim was our go-to mechanic to inspect a few models we were considering. He was upfront about what kind of repairs we would be looking at. We finally landed on a pre-owned V70. She was a pretty solid car when we purchased her, but we still had Jim get her up to pristine condition. One of the things I appreciate and respect about Jim is the fact that he will never push anything on you. He explains things clearly and tells you what needs to be addressed soon, what can wait and what you can keep an eye on for repairs down the road. I hold two professional people to very high standards: our animal's vet and our car's mechanic. I can say without a doubt Jim has met and exceeded my expectations as our mechanic. Own a Volvo? Take it to see Jim. read less
