⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Excellent mechanical service and spare parts sales. I brought my Volvo XC90 for a check-up and was very satisfied. Richard Jr is friendly, professional, and honest. Highly recommended!
A bit late but I would like to thank these wonderful people for their service and kindness during the time my daughter had her old Volvo. You left a lasting impression of professionalism and great customer service. We will never forget all you did for us. Thank you very much!
Great Volvo repair station in Gainesville! Very nice owner with his son, very polite. We had some issues with our Volvo and they checked it carefully and took their time - and even did not ask for a payment. It is really worth to buy a Volvo, when you have such a shop around. 5 stars!
The only mechanic I’ve been to that doesn’t try to upsell on unnecessary maintenance and repairs. RJ took extra time to thoroughly answer any questions I had about my car. Great prices and high quality work with volvo parts!!!
Master Volvo mechanics unparalleled in experience and knowledge. This father and son team is amazing , the best in the state of Florida .
Ive never seen anything like this shop in my 76 years, If you are within 100 miles of their location you are lucky. I have to drive 8 hrs RT to get here and back. Its worth it . Richard and Richard TY
We had our 2019 Volvo XC40 serviced at Richard's Import Store and had a good experience. Service was performed as requested and we met both Richard and RJ (father and son). Everybody is very friendly and relaxed. Price was very reasonable and no attempt was made to sell extra services. A breath of fresh air!
We live out of state and gave our daughter our 10 year old Volvo to drive while at UF. I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't found this place. He has taken such good care of this car, which has had a few issues in its old age. He's honest and reliable. I feel so much better knowing that this garage is close by!
Everything the reviews say are true, honest and hard working family who will let you leave with some money in your pocket. without the worries of what did they do to my car! Above and beyond
I recently relocated to Gainesville and had the good fortune to learn of these guys. They do top notch work and are extremely honest, friendly and reasonably priced. Further, they clearly explain whatever work is needed. These guys truly care about your car. Very highly recommended!!
My go to mechanic for my 04 S60. Consistently honest and ready to explain service (which I really appreciate). Run by personable and genuine people. Highly recommend
These guys are the best! They are honest, go above and beyond to be helpful, their prices are very reasonable! We are super thankful we found them! We are going to buy another Volvo because of them!
Great service, quick, honest, highly recommend. 2008 XC-90 check eng light and sputtering, Richard knew what the problem was over the phone. Diagnostic confirmed bad coil, had it that plus a few more issues done in a day. Thanks!
We won't have anyone else work on our two Volvos. Richard and his sons are truly Volvo experts and have decades of experience serving Volvos. They are honest, friendly, and their services are reasonably priced.
I’ve owned 240 Volvos for three decades. There are not many mechanics left who will even take them in for work. I did a ton of research to find this shop and drive a hundred miles to get there. These are THE Volvo guys. Shops like this are a slowly disappearing. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.
I won't take my Volvo anywhere else. These guys are honest, friendly, and great at what they do. If you live in Gainesville and drive a Volvo - take your car here!!!
I drive an hour to take my car to RJ. It’s a first rate business. The quality is excellent. The prices are affordable. But best of all the honesty and knowledge is refreshing and rare. I trust this business completely.
I love taking my car to Richard's Volvo. They are honest, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. Even if I move away from Gainesville, I will probably keep bringing my car here because it's just the best around!!
These guys are outstanding. Very knowledgeable better than any Volvo dealership. I trust them with my Volvo s60 hole heartedly. As long as they are in business I will drive a Volvo.
These guys are great. I recently purchased a newer model used Volvo and brought it to them to look over and make sure I wasn't buying someone else's problem. They let me bring it right in, gave me their opinion and even spent some extra time showing me some of the "good to knows" about my particular model. It's good to know these guys are around and ill be coming back for my future service.
Richard and his boys always take care of us! Volvo specialists... Knowledgeable, more than willing to help you understand the entire width and breath of repair or maintenance work. Recommend this place and these guys! Never have let us down.
Richards is the ONLY place to take your Volvo for repairs. They are great, honest people who do a wonderful job. If they can’t do something (very unusual) they tell you so. I have gone to them for almost 20 years (here and previous location) and I cannot think of one bad thing to say about them.
As always, RIS was superb. The best Volvo service I have experienced within the upper/central Florida area. Or anywhere. Family owned, seriously knowledgeable, amazing service. I will never take my Volvo anywhere else.
