Towing service service near Santa Barbara, CA

Volvo Master Mechanic Dave Scholl You will not find a more skilled, knowledgeable, fair and reasonably-priced Volvo master mechanic in Santa Barbara. I met Dave in 1988 at Oswald’s Volvo Repair, where he was the tall blond Scandivnavian towering over the other mechanics; I always asked and waited for him to be available to work on my first Volvo, a 240GL. Since then I have owned four more Volvos and still own three, a V70, S60 and C70 that he regularly services at his repair shop with the help of his wonderful wife, Terry. Dave may be terse and businesslike, while Terry is very approachable and friendly. When it was time to let an older Volvo go to a new owner, the first two sold immediately since they were in good shape and had all of Dave’s records confirming regular maintenance. The buyers were amazed that all components worked as a result of Dave’s attention to detail. I especially appreciate Dave’s detective skills in instances where extra effort is needed to identify the actual problem and fix it, without wasting time and money on unnecessary parts and work. Dave will only recommend fixing items in need of repair, following the truism, “If it isn’t broke, no need to fix it.” His estimates are accurate. He is honest, conscientious and consistently demonstrates refreshing integrity. There’s no need to go anywhere else to keep your Volvo in safe working condition.

AWS Automotive has been very helpful to me . Anytime I need repairs or just general service on my vehicle they take the time to explain to me (in terms that I can understand since my mechanical knowledge is limited) what i need to have done. Their work is excellant and always completed when promised at a fair price. I have never felt pressured there, only reassured that they were looking out for my car as if it was one of their own family members car.
