James Auto Works Volvo Repair

Jim is the kind of mechanic that you might think no longer exists: friendly, professional, easy to contact, fairly priced. An absolutely dream to work with.

I texted him in the afternoon and told him about our car problems and he said to bring it in right away. He waited late while I brought it over in the evening and then made sure I had a ride coming to pick me up.

The car was diagnosed the next morning and fixed by the afternoon. The price was very fair and we will be bringing him all of our business from now on.

Thank you Jim!!

I have known Jim for forty one years and he definitely knows his cars regardless of year, make or model. I asked him to do a "buyers check" on my '95 Jeep Cherokee and he was very thorough, showed me the things requiring attention, explained everything well and eased my mind considerably on my purchase. I look forward to his working on it as needed, knowing we will be in good hands. Trust me when I say you would be hard pressed to find a more reliable, honest or knowledgeable mechanic in the Tacoma area.

This dealership was awesome I took my car in because my airbag got recalled and needed to be replaced. They also did a full inspection of my car check my transmission filled it up a quarte for free and got a car wash I was there for there and a half hours but I was offered a shuttle right anywhere with in 15 miles and someone came out every hour to check on me. Very pleasant experience

First off, I never write reviews… So why start now? 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.

I took my 2004 Volvo S60 in to get repaired. Jim was extremely personable and did a great job fixing the car. I have waited a week prior to writing this review so that I can give a more detailed review. Jim got my car in extremely quick and gave me a great price. I believe that he was honest and I that he gave me clear details of what needed to be done and clear prices. He informed me that it would be cheaper to do certain projects together. He did a great job and I would highly recommend him to my family and friends. My car runs and drives great!!! For me it was better to call than to fill out the online form.
