West Seattle Auto Repair

This is my go-to shop for every Volvo I have owned. I appreciate their transparency, communication, and general customer service. I had picked up my car from the shop once after having a blower issue addressed. Something didn’t seem exactly right, and I was told to bring the car back in so they could handle it (which they did). They guarantee their work, and want to make sure that they deliver what they promise. Most recently, I had to drop my car off as part of an insurance claim. My provider was less than helpful, with the adjuster disappearing for more than a week at a time and providing inadequate estimates that left a huge delta with no explanation. Sean at Swedish Automotive was a complete gem - we were in constant communication and he advocated for me at every turn. And when I hit my rental term limit because of the adjuster’s absence, I was offered a loaner car from the shop so I could avoid having to pay out of pocket for the rental until my car was ready. I don’t go to this shop because they’re the cheapest - I go here because I trust their expertise, because I always leave feeling taken care of, and because I feel empowered as a customer when I am provided with all of the information up front and can choose what path to take before any work is executed.

The team went above and beyond to source a part that kept my Saab on the road. I appreciate their attention to detail and their communication with me during every stage of repair.. Their records keep small problems on radar to be reviewed at the next visit. Quality work and great customer service..

I was able to get a. Appointment in short time and the work, a PPI, was done expertly.

Had my 20 year old Subaru diagnosed at Swedish Automotive, and that diagnosis gave me a good idea as to either fix or trade. After chatting with service advisor Sean, and considering my options, I decided to stick with getting my car fixed instead of purchasing another car. We will start the repair process next week. This shop is professional, and I look forward to having an ongoing relationship with them. Four stars for now based on my experience, that may change after the work is completed.

I've been taking My 2012 Volvo C30R to Swedish Automotive since 2019. These folks are great! Very cohesive, well run organization so hard working and generous! Just want to add that I took my two vintage Volvos, a 1962 122S and a 1968 P1800S to the same shop with the original owner. Long time ago. The quality of top line service by extremely qualified people continues on. Thank you Swedish Automotive!

Great communication and service! Love how they text & email you list of services and made it easy to pick what the owner wants to have worked on. Super friendly!

I came in for a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) and received a thorough, detailed report outlining the current condition of my vehicle. The team clearly explained their recommended services and the reasoning behind each one, which made it easy to make informed decisions. I approved most of the recommendations, and SwedishAuto completed all the work the same day. Professional, efficient, and transparent service. I’ll definitely be returning to SwedishAuto for future maintenance.

This shop is the best. Ive been taking my three successive Volvos here for 20+ years. Unlike the dealers Ive bought the cars from, Swedish NEVER tries to persuade you to purchase expensive service you dont need. 5 star + rating!!

We’ve consistently had a great experience with Swedish Automotive. They are fair in their pricing, thoughtful in their recommendations, and never push unnecessary work. The team takes the time to explain everything clearly, which makes the whole process feel transparent and stress-free. Strongly recommend!
