Marin European Auto Service - Novato (CA)

Rolf Banning While you might be put off by the small shop, owner Gary McGowan brings more than 20 years of domestic and foreign auto repair including 10 years at the BMW dealer. If you want a no-nonsense, honest repair facility, you can’t go wrong here.

Igor Vale Auto Repairs is the place to go! Marvin is very honest about his work and timing. I will always take my cars to Vale Repairs. No BS just great work! Definitely recommend going here.

Brianna Gallardo Great experience with Mario squared. They were very communicated, gave a fare quote, and fixed my car up quickly. Definitely would trust them to fix any future car detail issues.

Jeff Hamilton I have nothing but GREAT things to say about Nave Motors. Kevin, the body shop manager, was amazing. I had high expectations and they were exceeded. My car actually came back to me from them BETTER than before the accident. Thank you to the entire crew at Nave.

Irene Collins Took my car in for major checkup. Work done throughly as aways. Explanations clear, and they make good recommendations, avoid having anything unnecessary.. Have taken cars here for years, and we are always sure they are in good hands. Staff is most helpful and friendly, aways make good suggestions.

Shane McCarthy Nothing but great things to say about Scott and his team over at Novato Auto Service. I had been coming to them for a few years and he has helped keep my truck in tip top shape. Incredible mechanic, honest, flexible, fairly priced and goes above and beyond doing incredible work. He has done a little bit of everything for my truck and it has never run better. Highly recommend if you are looking for a fair, reliable and honest mechanic who can fix just about anything in the Novato or Marin area. Beats the dealership by a long shot.

Lesli Fullerton-pacis My husband and I have had all of our car care here for years now. Petra is wonderful. Very honest and they kept our last cars going strong at 11 years.

Rob Schmidt Keith was knowledgeable and professional. He rebuilt my radiator with quality American parts for less than a cheap aftermarket, foreign replacement. His job re-coring my radiator was top notch and he provided excellent advice on other issues at no cost. Plus, hes a nice guy. Highly recommended for work on classic vehicles.

Tiffany Ballew Ive taken multiple cars to Kevin for the better part of 2 decades. He is not only an honest mechanic, hes a good man. Hes tuned up little things he came across while fixing the main issue, at no charge. As a woman, one can be taken for a fool by a mechanic and the next thing you know what should have been a simple fix becomes a litany of fictional issues with whatchamacallits and girlywigs. My vehicles always ran well upon leaving, at or below the quoted price. In the last 20 years I wish Id found a partner I could trust as much as I do this mechanic. Men have come and gone, but Ive been loyal to the guy who has always done right by me and my cars. This is a great local business and I wish I could give Codoni 6 stars.

Nicholas Christianson Ive been a client of J.E.V. Auto since 2018 and there are two things that stand out about Jorge and the team. 1) They are damn good mechanics. I know they are going to fix it right and fix it well the first time. 2) Customer Service and clear communication is as important to as their ability to fix my car. Im never unsure of my options and whether they explored all opportunities. Do yourself a favor and give them a call if youre car needs some love. You wont be sorry.
