Great service for our Volvo! Will be back for sure. First time with Bobs and it won't be our last. Honest and on time.

If this is the same Bob's Volvo that was on Colfax, this is the best Volvo mechanic I have ever seen. Other mechanics in Denver would quote me 10 times the amount Bob's would, and Bob's (Jason really) fixed the problem on the 1st try and the problem never reoccurred. This shop is legendary. read more

You always get honest feedback from Jason. I've been going to him for over a decade and can only buy Volvos from here on out.

Earlier this year, I took purchase of a Volvo XC90 that needed work done. I was so keen on finding a mechanic that'd be reliable and trustworthy. This shop checks all the boxes: friendly, knowledgeable, trustworthy, etc. They are on the pricier side because they typically use OEM genuine Volvo parts but they are most likely cheaper than going to the dealership. Would absolutely recommend these guys to any Volvo owner. read more

Bob's Service - Volvo XC90 - Auto Repair Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We purchased a used Volvo with a lot of miles. Our neighbors referred us and we had a great experience at Bob's. It took a couple of weeks to get on the schedule, but I expected that thanks to Yelp. (I checked that too.) Jason was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to, he responded promptly and I am relieved that we found a great shop to bring the vehicle! read more

My folks drove into town with an old 2005 Volvo XE70 station wagon from the east coast. After parking it in my driveway overnight we noticed a sizable oil slick under the car. Pop checked the oil, and it was down to about 1 quart (out of something like 6.5). Yikes! To compound problems, they arrived a day before Christmas, and had planned to leave again on December 31st, so they had a very small window to get any repairs done. Most everyone we called was too busy or fully booked. When we explained the situation to Jason, he was very understanding, and got it evaluated same day. It turned out to be a bad housing that needed replacing - apparently fairly common on this age and model, and the whole repair was under $100 bucks. I don't drive a Volvo, but if I did, it would serviced only by Bob's. read more

A friend told me he knew a great Volvo repair place. I told him I didn't need to know about it since I already found one. He told me anyway. Based on his insistence and the probable number of really great Volvo shops in Denver, perhaps I shouldn't have been surprised that this "really great " was Bob's. read more

2008 Volvo XC70...... After being told it would be two weeks to have a bulb changed from "one of two local Volvo dealerships"......And just having all my lights checked and changed out three weeks ago, ( paying an astronomical fee for this), Bobs was recommended to me by my daughter in law. I called to inquire and was pleasantly surprised when I was told " sure, bring it in". I was in and out in five minutes and at a fraction of the costs! This was my first visit but it won't be my last, highly recommend to give them a try for service on your Volvo! Thank you for the honest and very affordable service. Even if it was only a lightbulb! read more

We had driven in from Dallas when the check engine light came on in our Volvo. Volvos can be finicky so we were worried that this would delay our return. We brought it to Bob's where he scanned for the fault and fixed the problem in less than ten minutes, and then refused payment! read more

Just wanted help to loosen 2 bolts on my exhaust. Guy wouldn't even look. "It's not a volvo". I think he just wanted to be done for the day. read more

We drive from Littleton to have our Volvo's serviced here. We moved down from Ft. Collins 4+ yrs ago & our mechanic there highly recommended Bob's garage....yesterday was yet another pleasant visit. My glove compartment just locked itself & there was no entry that we cld figure out. Upon sharing this w/Jason he came from behind the desk...grabbed a drill...& knew exactly what to do...in mins. I once again could access my glove compartment. Jason refused to take any kind of pymt. What a lovely act of random kindness...one we'll not soon forget. read more

If you own a Volvo in Denver, this is your go-to place! I always receive excellent care here - even with standard oil changes I'm informed of any ongoing issues with my vehicle, but never feel pressured to make unnecessary repairs. Jason is extremely knowledgeable and explains everything in a clear, caring, professional fashion. Thanks for all you do! read more

I brought my 1983 DL sedan in because I'd been having some power problems. I told him it was likely the voltage regulator, and could he check that out. (the VR is part of the alternator system) He told me I needed a new wiring harness and it would cost about $800 or so. I got the work done, but my problem remained, and it turned out he hadn't checked the VR. I took it to Tim's Volvo in Wheatridge, said it was the VR, tim agreed, and fixed it for about $150. I don't think Bob's ripped me off - the wiring harness DID need to be replaced - but I was upset they didn't check what I thought was (and actually was) the real problem, instead going for the expensive fix it job. I was told they'd give me a deal on the alternator/VR if the wiring harness didn't fix the problem, but when I brought it back, that promise had vanished and they wanted $250 for the alternator fix. Again, I don't think they were trying to rip me off, I just wish they had listened to me. I took it to Tim's and got exactly what I wanted, much cheaper. I'd avoid this place, and do business with Tim. read more

UPDATE: Even after two years of having posted this review, I stand by it and the team at Bob's! Having lived in Denver since 2005, I have taken my 2000 Volvo XC to Bob's since an unpleasant, financially gouging, and ultimately unnecessary service experience with local dealer Volvo Rickenbaugh. Bob's Volvo is local, small, and personal. Managed well with estimations of cost and vehicle return always spot-on, Bob's has earned my loyalty through these and other professional and personal attributes. One of the personal qualities of the business is the pleasantness of the team. Be it 8 in the morning or 4.45 that afternoon, you'd never know Jason or his team expected to have, or had, a long, tiring, day by their attitudes. While welcoming to those who do, Jason doesn't expect his customers to know the engineering and system details of their cars and so he is brings his warmth to easy to understand explanations of cause and cure. Taking questions and concerns in stride, the repair experience at Bob's is stress free. Bob's has always practiced transparency and in the years I have worked with Jason, he is always amenable to discuss options and repair/maintenance priorities. While no one expects service shops to delight in causing stress based on the news of the financial costs of repair work, Bob's is all the more empathetic than most in that they always have a safe Plan B to get you toward Plan A. You can also be assured that if the repair(s) are immediate needs, you will be told that. Communication at Bob's is clear and consistent. If you are looking for a dependable, honest, and pleasant service experience you can do no better than Jason and his staff. Their professionalism and quality of repair - I have never had to return for a 'do over' in all the years I have been going - is second only to their commitment to providing you with customer service free of pressure or jargon. Establish yourself at Bob's and you can expect more life out of your car and less worry for you when the times come for maintenance or repair. read more

Jason, Wendy, and Bob's Mechanics (sounds like a musical group) are an in-tune, personable, friendly, detail-oriented group of humanitarians. Fifty years in the family, if I heard right. Honesty pays off in happy customers and referrals. Jason saved me hundreds of dollars on a tune-up I was convinced I needed. Staff shows concern that I am a safe, happy driver every time I come in. It is a pleasure doing business here. They interact like a family, -- not mine, I mean a functional, loving family. Thank you for the care all of you have given my vehicle, my dog, and my spirit. I count you in my Thanksgiving blessings. Alan John Mayer read more

Actually one of the best car service centers I've been to, and definitely the best in the Denver area: the people at Bob's are very knowledgeable, especially about the quirks of Volvos. They are also friendly, clear, and reasonable, which makes going here as enjoyable an experience as possible. I will return when I need to. Even on short notice, they accommodated me and my '98 into their busy schedule as soon as they could and communicated effectively about all the service done. read more

I have brought my XC90 a couple times here for work. Their service is amazing and they are great people too. I absolutely trust them with my vehicle. Yesterday I got a taillight stolen from my XC90. I stopped by and told them what happened. Jason went out looked at it. Stated he had a parts vehicle in back. Took of light and placed on my vehicle. Boom fixed. And price was more than reasonable. If you have a Volvo there should be no other place you should go. They know Volvo's inside and out. read more

I trust these guys!! They have always taken good care of me and my cars. Also, they don't patronize me as a female in an auto shop which is usually what I experience in other shops. When the job is done you know they've done it right the first time. They are knowledgeable, thorough and absolutely fantastic! read more

My mom has nothing but nice things to say about Bob's Volvo Service. Her new Volvo is a computer on wheels and every time I go visit it's flashing another light to get serviced. She takes it to Bob's and really respects the fact that they do only the service that is needed, quickly, and efficiently. So when I came to visit this past week, she wanted me to take my Hyundai into Bob's so they could check out my shocks. I'm not sure if they like to just stick to Volvo's and other cars they specialize in but my mom requested they take my car in since she's been so happy with them. We got there when the shop opened and it looked like they were going to have a busy day. It looked like they had 5+ people drop off their cars. Later Jason called and stated what was wrong with my car, he can fix it, and he'll call when it's done. When we went to go pick it up, Jason brought out this car part and explained what was wrong and why it needed to be fixed. Heck if I remember now but it was really cool to not just hear some jargon. My car feels so much better and I believe my mom dropped off her Volvo for Jason today! Thanks Jason! read more

I cannot say enough about Bob's Volvo Service. The entire staff are extremely friendly and helpful - Jason always takes the time to explain things to me. He has also gone above and beyond to be informative and helpful ( I called him from the road once when my check engine light came on) and gives me different ideas and alternatives if needed. As a single woman and going through a spell of employment transition, I appreciate deeply his concern for making sure the important things get done. I've even compared costs and quotes with my previous, trusted Volvo mechanic in another city and they always back what Jason has said, as well as his prices. If you're in Denver and need good Volvo service, I wouldn't trust anyone else. read more

I had some work done on my S70 and after I paid I get in my car and went to put on the seat belt and the panel piece where the seat belt is just came right off. The pieces flew apart as if the guy that worked on it carefully placed the pieces together just enough to stay in place as long as no one touched it. The counter guy fixed it and when I wanted to address the shoddy workmanship the person that worked on the car did he blamed the age of the car argued and said that nothing was wrong when he drove it this morning. I pointed out that if he drove the car it was probably to bring it out and that he didn't use the safety belt for that. He admitted that was the case which makes him at the least disingenuous or at the most a stinking liar. I expect to get my car out repaired to my satisfaction and they got the repair part right but returned it with something new broken and displayed crappy customer service while dealing with the problem they created. read more

This is hands down where you should take your Volvo in Denver. The staff was extremely friendly, prompt, and Jason explained everything to me. When my car started running incorrectly, there were multiple parts that my local dealer Rickenbaugh Volvo tried to replace in excess of $1200. Bob's fixed my car for $300. And the part that Rickenbaugh would've replaced was the wrong part. My car would've still been running incorrectly, and for $1200!! Bob's had the opportunity to replace many expensive parts and overcharge me, but they kept it simple and affordable. The staff also treated me with respect!! I am moving in a few months. I wish I knew about Bob's sooner!! read more

super polite service, also did not take long only game in for scheduled service light and was a good price as i'd recently had an oil change read more

I called the dealership about repairing my side rear view mirror. Even though not all of the components were broken, they wanted to replace everything. I knew the motor still worked so I didn't think replacing everything was necessary. Went by Bob's...they are going to replace only what is necessary so I saved about $200, plus they were very nice and super fast. read more

Jason has always been so helpful! They really treat you like your family and they care about the quality of your car. If you drive a Volvo need to come to Bob's Volvo. read more

I originally took my 2007 Volvo S60 to South Denver Automotive and they quoted me $2,000+ to fix a rattling noise and said I "needed" all new struts, control arm bushings, etc. The tech said he's seen struts "go through hoods of cars" if left unfixed. They charged me $60.00 for the estimate. I went to Bob's for a second opinion. Bob's son Jason gave me a free estimate. Bob's was willing to do the same service plus replace my burnt out headlights and licence plate lights as well as diagnose my Check Engine Light and replace the Spring Seat for under $1,450. Jason also educated me that if I did not have to all of the work right away. I walked out with all the work done except the control arm bushings for $428.00 and the rattling is gone!! My Black Cat is back to running like the well-oiled machine that it was engineered to be! Bob's Volvo is really good! read more

This IS the place for Volvo repair in Denver! Very efficient and knowledgeable with fast and friendly service at reasonable prices.

This is the best car repair shop I have ever dealt with! They are honest, reasonably priced, and extremely friendly! I drive and hour and a half from Summit County just to work with Bob's because I know they do the work right and never try to gouge me. Bob's is the best! Andrea S. read more

Great friendly service. Nice to know the mechanics here know what they are doing. I got out of my way to take my C30 here.

I had the most amazingly positive experience at Bob's. I worked with James who explained what needed to be done to my Volvo clearly and patiently. Considering the little I know about auto mechanics, I KNOW there were places the cost or extent of repairs could have bumped up and I could easily been fleeced. James explained where the costs go and to what. No markup here. Finding a mechanic I can trust is like finding a good doctor. I can't recommend them more! read more

We have a Volvo and a Honda and have been taking our cars here for years. Jason is knowledgeable and friendly, but most importantly, honest. He explains everything thoroughly and has kept our cars in great condition. read more

Bob's Volvo is the best. They have helped us considerably -- they're HONEST, FAIR, KNOWLEDGABLE and without question, WONDERFUL people (and family-owned). Not only would I trust them with our cars, but I'd trust them with my life! They are, without a doubt, the BEST. Needless to say, we recommend them hands down. read more

In a world where it is hard to know whether you're getting a straight answer versus an expensive run around from mechanics (especially as a woman), these guys are honest, straight-forward and helpful, plus they can get you in quickly. I brought my XC90 in twice for regular maintenance and an expensive problem which a Volvo dealer told me would cost $1400, and these guys did it for $800. When I told them I wanted to sell my car, they offered the cheapest alternatives, including hunting down used parts for me. I highly recommend Jason and this shop! read more

We have taken both our S80 and S40 to Bob's we found them reliable, affordable and trustworthy. We had a very positive experience and even sent some friend in that were having trouble with an S60. We are happy to have found them and will be a customer for life! read more

Our car broke down in KS after a part Bob's installed failed. They never hesitated to cover our repair costs, car rental, and they even paid me to return the rental and bring our car back. This type of service, where they immediately stood behind their work, is rare these days. They have performed lots of work on my S60 and it has all been top notch. Kudos to these guys for their work and attention to the customer. read more

Reliable, affordable and trustworthy mechanics! Go to Jason. He is amazing! Make Jason your trusted provider.

Friendly crew at this shop and they are very helpful. Highly recommend.

So happy to have found such an honest auto mechanic in Jason who runs this small but well run shop! Jason takes the time to explain what's going wrong and what needs to be done to fix it. They also have very fair prices. Although I live in Parker, I'll continue to use Bob's Volvo Service for my car! read more

A family member who is 75 years old got a quote from Jason Martinez, Bob's son saying the timing belt with camshaft pulley needed to replaced as soon as possible for $1,500 or their car could become scrap, and if paid in cash, they would not charge $125 for brake fluid. We went to Nick's Auto in Littleton for a second quote and there was NOTHING wrong with the car, they only charged $125. Clearly Bob's son is trying to take advantage of trusting elderly customers. I would give this zero stars if an option. read more

Jason at Bob's Volvo Service is the real deal. I have had a series of unfortunate events occur with my 2008 Volvo S40. I have taken my vehicle before to the Volvo Specialists on S Santa Fe but was not impressed at all. Jason is busy because he does great work. He works very well with you and walks through every possible reasons for said problem, ensuring you do not have to come back to get the same issue re-repaired. He also had the opportunity to recommend a solution for a major problem, which would have cost over $1000 in parts alone, yet he was very honest and said he couldn't in good conscience recommend implementing said solution without knowing 100% the part was at fault. This was very honest and further solidified the trust I have in Bob's Volvo Service. As for price, Volvo's are notoriously expensive when they need repairs. For what I need done, I feel Bob's Volvo charges a pretty reasonable price. All in all, even though I tell Jason I hope I don't have to see him anytime soon, I know that when my car does need some TLC, Bob's Volvo is there for me. read more
