My daughter just bought a used Volvo that needed some maintenance. Darko fit her in before he was leaving for vacation, fixing all the necessary items and a couple other fixes. Best repair shop we have EVER been to. Fast, Efficient, and Affordable. read more

Am from Modesto. I recommend these services; Darko is very professional. You can trust him 100%--no surprises--and the service is very fast. Address: 211 Kenroy Ln, Ste 7, Roseville, CA 95678. read more

Very knowledgeable and trustworthy, I had a great experience with Darko during my recent visit to his office. Highly recommend him for Volvo car needs. read more

Darko has the competence, communication, and integrity you hope to find when looking for a mechanic. I brought my Volvo in for an oil change and a general inspection after not driving it much for a few years, and he walked me through every relevant detail about its condition. He was also extremely flexible with drop‑off and pick‑up times, which made the whole process easy. I highly recommend taking your Volvo here, and I'll definitely be returning when my car needs further service. read more

Darko does a great job on keeping our Volvos maintained. Highly recommend his services.

I have been going to Bravo for 7 years with both of my Volvos and have always had simply outstanding service. The engine in my XC70 overheated when a radiator hose blew out while stuck in a winter snow traffic stop causing a terminal head warp. The car is so good otherwise that I finally talked Darko into getting me a low mileage salvage engine, which his friend in that business was able to find and ship to him. The replacement was quick and flawless, giving me an essentially nearly new car for a very reasonable cost. If you have any questions about your Volvo, just ask Darko, because he has an incredible depth of knowledge about all the models going back many years, and is always willing to discuss your vehicle's problems in such detail that you can make an intelligent decision about managing them. I give his service the highest recommendation. Scott Clark, MD read more

Darko is the best for Volvo service in the area. Knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly service.

I give them a A+ they fixed my truck when 2 other shops couldn't . They are my to goto shop.

Bravo is the only place that will service my Volvo! They know this product! Darko is fantastic - offering​: - helpful information (without even asking - he just knows what I need to know without me even knowing what I need to know!) - patience - and superb service They have more than fair pricing, too. GO SEE THEM! You will not regret it! read more

Reliable, trustworthy, and does the job right the first time, and I've used Bravo about 5 times for my son's older Volvo that needed some TLC. Darko is one of the best. read more

Awesome, I am s thankful I found this shop for my Volvo. I had been to AAA and the dealer, both who tried to over sell services. I got tired of being lied to and over charged. They do their best to understand how you want to do business. Very kind ,nice, and well educated on volvos. No one else will work on my Volvo. No, not cheap, but fair. read more

They fixed my sons car after the check engine came on. They were very reasonable, helpful, and friendly. I will continue to bring my car to them in the future read more

This is the only place I take my Volvo! Dean is the most honest mechanic I've ever know. Trustworthy & dependable are understatements! I took my first Volvo here & now my 2nd. Drive from the Bayarea to have him work on my car & no one else has touched it since! Can't say enough great things about Bravo & Dean!!! read more

My family was recommended to Dean and his shop, because of his vast knowledge on Volvo autos and impeccable quality and service. We weren't disappointed! He runs the shop by himself, so there's often times where it's better to drop your car off and pick it up at the end of the day. As soon as I got my car back, check engine light was off, and it ran MUCH smoother. I will go to him for my future volvo repairs! read more

I took my Volvo here today for an inspection before it was sold. I was so impressed by the knowledge Dean has on Volvo's. This guy understands these cars inside and out. He was very courteous and did a thorough job checking my car over from stem to stern. I wish I had found this shop earlier in my Volvo ownership career. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a knowledgeable Volvo mechanic. No matter where you live in the Sacramento area make the time to bring your Volvo here. You wont be disappointed. read more

My sincere thanks to Dean at Bravo motors for the outstanding customer service and repair of my 2000 Volvo S70. My transmission was acting up and Dean knew exactly what was happening and what was needed to repair it. The repair cost was considerably less than what I had in my mind. If you have a Volvo and need work done, I urge you to check with Dean before going to a dealer. Dean will only repair whats needed. It's refreshing to do business with Bravo Motors. read more

I was told at the dealer I would need a new transmission, and at another transmission shop, they told me an overhaul would be needed. Both were very costly. I came across Bravo Motors on the Internet. The video showed a possible solution. I drove down from Magalia to have Dean work his magic! And now my Volvo S60 runs great. If you are considering a shop, talk to Dean. Thanks! read more

Dean is the best volvo repairman in town. He is the only one i trust with my volvo. I live all the way in Sacramento and it is quite a drive for me but it is worth it. He is honest, competent and great to work with. read more

Ok owned more than one Volvo and have been to repair shops and dealerships from Monterey to Sacramento. Have also owned numerous cars and been to all kinds of repair shops including ones owned by close friends. Dean and his shop are by far the best service, friendliest and most knowledgable mechanic shop I have ever done business with in 40 years of owning cars. Dean is so reliable that I send my young daughter and her Volvo to him and only him because he treats her like his own daughter and I don't have to worry about the kind of service she gets or how she is treated. Dean is the kind of guy who makes you feel like family or a close friend within minutes after meeting him. Don't take your Volvo to any other mechanic. read more

You shouldn't take your Volvo to anyone other than Dean. He performs high quality work at a reasonable price, really cares about his clients, and truly respects Volvo's especially for their safety. He has done a 120K service and multiple repairs for me. All were done quickly, professionally, and with a focus on his client. As an example, when Dean replaces brakes, he does not use Volvo brakes but another product he's found which lasts longer. Given that Volvo brakes are notorious for wearing out, this costs him money but makes his clients happy. read more

Brought in my daughter's 2002 V70 2.4T for service recently - it has to be dependable while she's off at college. Since she recently bought it, the history was unknown, however the timing belt had never been changed, an oil leak was coming from somewhere, and the transmission was acting as if it were psychotic... I wasn't convinced this was car was a wise investment for reliable transportation. However Dean fixed everything up. Rebuilt the the transmission servos, fixed the leaking power steering, replace the timing belt, the water pump, cleared the codes... nearly everything that was possibly wrong with the car... its's like a TOTALLY DIFFERENT CAR! I drove it around to "test it" afterwards, and I was stunned at the difference. She just drove it back down to the university today, and is really happy with it as well. Definitely going back to Dean if we have any issues - brilliant service and reasonably priced. read more

I've been taking my car to Bravo Motors for years and have never been disappointed with the level of service that Dean and Dar provided. I had to take my Volvo in last week because it kept turning off. As usual, Dean got it fixed when he said he would and also fixed a few other minor things on the car. When I picked up my car, it had even been detailed!! My car was waiting for me when I pulled in with the AC already on (it was a very hot day) Thanks Dar!! and thanks again Dean! You guys are awesome!! read more

I accidentally found the best Volvo mechanic after a terrible experience at Bill Pierce Volvo in Reno. BP had my car for (5) weeks, were unresponsive and charged over 3k (new tires, check up, headlight- etc. They couldn't find the shake/vibration I felt intermittently AND charged ME $300 diagnosis!!! The day after I picked up car it started shaking so much I pulled over and yelped "Volvo mechanic". UP popped BRAVO MOTORS only a few miles away in Roseville, Ca. I called and owner Dean (from a pedigree Volvo family) said he'd take a look. He test drove it, made some minor adjustments, removed a mouse nest from the engine and charged me $157. Thanks Dean! You are a true professional and a pleasure to work with. read more

My family has been coming to Dean for years and he's the best and most honest volvo mechanic around. I live in Davis now, but I'll still drive all the way back to Roseville just to go to Bravo Motors. They always have the best prices and very clearly care about their customers. I 100% trust them with my Volvo and wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

I bought my Land Rover off of Dar, he is very easy going non pressuring, and very accommodating for a busy family schedule. Lots of other dealers talk up there cars, Dar was honest and very forthright. read more

Bravo Motors - Auto Repair Near Me - Roseville, California

My husband and I were recommended to Bravo Motors. We had a fantastic experience test driving and picking the car we liked. The very experienced mechanic and trustworthy owner won me over. Since owning our Volvo now for 6mos, we had a couple of things that we noticed could be fixed. The owner told us to bring it in to the shop and his mechanic fixed everything for free. We now plan on getting another car from Bravo soon. KUDOS to BRAVO. Sincerely, the Ehrhardts' read more

OMG...this is the BEST Volvo shop in and around the Sacramento metroplex!! Had previously tried a few places and got totally ripped-off...Dean is the mechanic everyone dreams of finding. Honest, thorough, and knows Volvos inside and out. I wouldn't trust my s80 to anyone else. read more

I went over to Bravo because my car was having a strange noise after it was driven from Roseville to Berkeley. Dean came out to check the car. After checking it, he found that the tire was coming loose. He fixed it immediately. My car is running great now. I could recommend any one that has a Volvo to go to Dean to have it service. His price is reasonable and he is very knowledge about Volvo. By the way, this is the third time I went to Bravo to have my car service. Dean does a great job every time. Regards, Johnny read more

Whenever I need goods and services, I always try to use a Roseville Chamber member first. I am so glad to have met the owner of Bravo Motors at a mixer. My transmission was acting up, so I thought I was looking at a several thousand dollar replacement. Dean is so knowledgeable when it comes to Volvo, he was describing symptoms to be as soon as I started talking about the problems my car was having. He fixed the problem for less than 1/3 of what I was expecting to have to spend. Not only that, but he went bumper to bumper and gave me a prioritized list of some other things my car needed. I never felt like he was pushing a service on me or trying to sell me something I didn't need. One thing I thought would be an urgent repair, he said just sounds worse than it is and there was rush to do it right away. If you own a Volvo, don't take you car anywhere else...EVER. The pricing is fair, the work is outstanding and these guys are honest. read more

Bravo Motors was recommended by a friend-of-a-friend who has been taking her Volvo here for years. I have never had such an easy, stress-free tuneup and repair experience as I have with this shop. Very fair charges, honest and reliable work, and always able to get me an appointment in a timely manner. If I knew any other Volvo owners, I would recommend them to Dean. read more

Dean, one of the partners who runs the business, is great. He's very friendly and hospitable. He actually makes sure his customers are comfortable while they are waiting for the car to be fixed. He includes you in the process by showing you the parts and the places that are wrong so you aren't left in the dark. He also checks up on you by phone call to make sure the work he has done is still working properly. Overall, amazing service and I highly recommend this business if you have a Volvo that needs to be worked on or even just looked at. read more

Found the place I will always take my car. I have had all great experiences with this shop. Dean is very helpful and knows what he's talking about. They clearly inform you on whats going on, you can see the old parts when work is completed, they double check the cars working properly before you take home. No run around about how you need this and that when you don't. (they do tell you what you need but also show you proof). Car has always been ready on time and in great condition. Glad to have found this place. Honest hard working people. Volvo's only! though sorry. read more

So I am from Roseville and have been living in Salt Lake City Ut for the past three years. Before moving back my Volvo XC70 Cross Country started having shifting problems and the Big O tires in SLC said that it was most likely the throttle body and would have to be replaced costing a minimum of $1200 with labor. So deciding to fix it in Cali we took it to a Big O here in Roseville but they said it was a transmission problem and to take it to a transmission specialist. Luckily before we did that we looked on yelp and found Bravo Motors. The ratings were high so I decided to give them a call and leave a message. I only stating the year, make, model, and a small description of what was wrong. They called me back shortly and they were very knowledgeable of what they thought/knew was wrong. They broke it down to the specific problem that goes with this specific year and model. I got a quote and brought it in the next day. They checked it out and ran a diagnostic and it matched exactly what they said. I asked if it would be possible to have it done that same day even though it was a transmission fix because my gf had a job interview the very next morning in Sonoma. I was very happy and very thankful that they got it done in less than five hours. Not only did they fix the problem, they let me know that my AC needed a charge (it hasn't worked since last summer) I told them I couldn't afford it at the moment because of the move but when I picked up my car they let me know they gave it a half charge and to not worry about the cost. I can only assume that they didn't want us to handle a hot California summer with no AC and for me, it was very conciderate and above and beyond customer service. All in all out the door I payed less than the original $1200 SLC quoted me for the wrong fix and they were very pleasant to work with. I will be moving to the East Bay but i will be driving back to Roseville just for the oil changes and/or any type of fix this car needs just because of this first experience. Thank you for being such a great crew! Ill see you in 300 miles. read more

I took my Volvo wagon in. Dean provided the best customer service of any of the shops I've been to--EVER!. He took a genuine concern in my car's well-being and was honest, friendly, reliable and a man of his word. I absolutely recommend this shop to anyone looking to have their Volvos worked on. You won't be disappointed. Mechanics like Dean are a rare breed. Bravo Motors is 100% A+ read more
