The guys at Europa have been spectacular. They have been consistent about going above and beyond - including the little annoying items that you may usually forget to ask about getting taken care of. They will continue to receive my business without question.

Been to Europa a couple of times. Once for front end work and a fuel pump. They are super busy so you will wait 2 weeks for an appointment. I asked them to check the front end because there is a terrible grinding noise periodically. They test drove it and everything seemed fine. I picked up the car and within 5 minutes the car was grinding again. I don’t even feel safe driving the car and bet it will be another $1000 to fix it. My dashboard looks like a Christmas tree. Super frustrated to say the least.

The technician explainedt the data specifications before the wheel alignmentr and the corrections that were made after the wheel alignment making the driving experience a great improvement! Also, the technician replaced the A/C compressor and the A/C receiver-dryer and now the A/C works like new! I have been coming to Europa for over 20 years and this is the best place for quality and honest service and repair for your Volvo.

My Volvo engine developed a couple burnt-out valves and required a whole head job. Expensive - but Al and crew did a great job. Car runs great! Also, quick fix for my car’s ‘shudder’ problem when coming to slow stops. It worked without any expensive transmission repair!Shop’s been in Bellevue since 1967 and that speaks volumes about the good work they do. Highly recommended above any dealer in my view.

Al got me in the next day after calling and had my car fixed by the same day before close. He fit me in immediately and my car AC is working great now. Everything was fast/easy/convenient for myself. Will be coming back.

Review №11

Talked to Al about changing brakes on my Infiniti QX60, following a routine service at the dealer.Al already had the parts and the car ready to perform the service, but then noticed the brake pads are actually still in good condition, and dont need a replacement!He then put the wheels back on, and did not charge me a dime for his time.Al and his team are honest people, and I cant recommend them enough.

My family and I have been bringing our cars to Europa Service for over a decade. Al and his team do a great job and charge a fair price. Even after moving to Bainbridge Island, we still go back to Europa Service in Bellevue for all our car repairs. Thats how much we trust Al!!!!

Always great service. Love the team at Europa. Have taken several of my cars there. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Review №15

I’ve been going to another shop for years for my Volvo and felt like I was always getting nickeled and dime. I found Europa with amazing reviews and they were that great and more. What another shop quoted me $4,200 they said that repair was extreme. I felt they were very honest and also fit me in last minute as well. I highly recommend them.

Review №16

I am very happy with the service provided by Al from Europa. I had this nagging engine light in my VW Tiguan and oil leak that was professionally fixed by Europa and cheaper/faster than having it fixed by VW dealer. Furthermore, when I saw a bit of oil leak after the service, I was worried that something else was wrong and will cost more. I went back to Europa to have it checked and they tightened the oil filter and did not charge me for more. This was not the case when I visited the VW dealer. I strongly recommend Europa rather than having my car service by the dealer.

Review №17

After taking my car to another shop and having continuous issues with my brakes/car shaking, I brought it to Europa and they fixed all my problems in a few short hours! Al is very kind and explained everything to me that was going on and I wish I had just come here from the start. Pricing was fair, parts ordered same day - quick and efficient and I’m so happy I get to enjoy driving my car again. Will come back to only here to get service on my vehicles!

Review №18

Ever since I have taken my car to Europa, my car runs much better than it used to when I took it to the pricey Volvo dealership. It has been great working with Al as he definitely understands what the car needs and always has a sound advice to offer with respect to running a car. I would highly recommend this place to everyone.

Review №19

Al was extremely patient in explaining issues and answering my questions regarding my Mercedes. Unfortunately it was an issue necessitating a fix by Mercedes, but for any other issues in the future that Europa can fix I wouldnt hesitate taking my car here. They are very trustworthy and helpful.

Honest, quality work, fair price. I will come back. Do not use the dealership - they are not worth your money and time. This is a far better place to work with, and the people at Europa Imported Service beat the other guys, hands down. BMW X5 2012, electrical issues - solved.

Most professional auto service used. Great attention to detail, clear explanation on why something is, or not needed. In some 15 years, I never had an issue that was not addressed correctly, across multiple car brands and models.

Back to Europa after disappointing experience with dealer under new ownership. Al diagnosed problem, provided options for repair and delivered as promised. No surprises, no fuss. Got the job done at reasonable cost. Highly recommend.

Al is very friendly, competent and realistic on maintaining our older car, recognizing that it is near end of life. Gives good advice and options without pushing anything. Also did a nice job coaching our new driver son on some maintenance issues to watch for.

Review №37

I have consistently used this shop for my car maintenance for over 2- years. Their cost is very fair considering that specialize in European and Japanese imports. I have my SAAB 9-3 and my Mistsubishi Lander both worked on here The guys running this shop are more experienced, older gentlemen with prob 50+ of mechanical knowledge between them along with 1 or 2 younger techs. They are very meticulous as well as easy to communicate with and will call you to let you know what options there are if there is more costly work needed.

Review №38

I brought my car here because of the reviews. At first I thought the prices would “match” the great reviews (meaning expensive) but they were really honest about the charges and didn’t charge me a dime over. The really interesting part was that we had fixed some things that needed to be fixed but once I got the car back there was a previous small issue that was still present. They said that since they misdiagnosed the issue they would just fix it and eat the cost. I honestly didn’t expect that.

Review №39

60K maintenance on my car. The staff seem honest, friendly and I felt like they are not about over charging or adding on what you don’t need. I received a quote for the same maintenance at the BMW dealership and the price was almost double. I’ll definitely be back.

Review №41

Had an issue where someone accidently put regular gas in my diesel only vehicle. I called many places and it seems they were salivating to charge me enormous amounts, before even checking the car out. Al at Europa calmly walked me through steps needed to get the problem figured out and resolved. Result; problem fixed much less than others were looking to charge. Im very grateful and they have a new customer!

Al and his partner are some of the best people that I have done work with, they treated myself and my Volvo with a super experience overall and we couldnt be happier. When I went looking for a shop to service our Volvo I wanted a place that not only could repair it correctly but would treat us as a customer should be treated. Mission accomplished, we will take our car here going forward for all service and repair work..Thanks guys..

First time at Europa. I was referred by a long time customer. Al was absolutely great. Scheduled to fix my timing belt and then my steering rod broke. Was going to be out a car for several days. He sensed my distress and got my car finished extra fast. Great service and good work! Will definitely be back. Plus cheaper than the Honda dealership

By far the best place I have ever taken a car for service. I am not one for writing reviews, but Al and his team deserved it! They did an amazing job with my daughters VW. And not only was Al courteous, he was personable and very helpful in giving us all the info we need to help prevent clutch issues in the future. A defininte 5 stars!

Al and his crew always take care our beloved Volvo S80 until it was completely broken down. Now we have a MINI, which was inspected by Al right after the purchase (we didnt have the option to do the pre-inspection) and thank god it is fine. Ill keep sending my MINI to Europa for services because I trust Al and his team would take care of my car.

Review №78

Europa was awesome! I was nervous because I thought it would be expensive for a repair on my daughters old Honda that lost an axle on her front right tire (lucky she was not hurt). And I thought it would probably take a week to get fixed. To my utter delight! AL, the owner, gave me a fair price, got it done in a day and also fixed some other things to make sure my sweet Jodi would be safe driving her old car. Thank you the Colin Mariani for the referral to Eurpoa! What a great find!

I have been a customer for 20 years. Al and the rest are the best. He actually saves me money and grief by prioritizing repairs and using common sense (politely). Through three Volvos, an old Saab, and now my Hondas, Europa is the go to guy for service, repairs, and those arcane problems which every car experiences. Hes also a good source for a used car for your kids.

Review №90

I have had two Saabs and Europa has performed all the services needed on both for over twelve years. We are down to one Saab 93 convertible, and we live in Spokane now, but I still bring it to Al at Europa for any mechanical repairs. Years ago I had to have the head gasket replaced by another shop while we were on a road trip, and they made a mess of the job. We constantly had oil leaks, so bad I finally put it on a car trailer and towed to Europa. Al called me at the end of the day with an estimate to fix the oil leaks. I gave the go ahead for repairs, and the work was done the next day. I picked the car up and drove it back to Spokane and have not had any leaks at all. Al is very friendly and knowledgeable with repairs, I would highly recommend Europa for any of your car repairs. Definitely 5 star service.

Took my 2005 V70 in before a cross country trip and couldnt be happier. They did all of the repairs needed (timing belt, breaks, etc.) in a tight timeline for the trip and the car performed flawlessly.

These guys are great, for about $160 I had a car from a dealership pre-inspected by them and they ended up finding some fixes that would have costed me a thousand dollars! That now the dealership is going to handle for me, thanks to the proof of the pre-inspection. They are nice, honest; and are quick!
