The Model Garage, Inc. at 2920 Shattuck Avenue, Berkeley, California.

I first brought my car to Model Garage in July 1990, after reading an excellent review of the shop in Bay Area Consumers’ Checkbook. The shop lived up to its reviews, and I have been a faithful client ever since.

This is not the least expensive auto repair shop in the Bay Area, but the quality of their work is outstanding. Even more important…for me…is the fact that I can trust them completely. If there is a problem, they will find it and fix it; and, they will never invent work that doesn’t need to be done. The owner, Don Worth, is sincerely honest.

Trust is what has brought me back to Model Garage for 24 years, trust is what will keep me coming back for so long as this garage is owned by Don, and counts Gail and Umberto amongst its mechanics.

Three thumbs up.
