Vollans Automotive

Extremely helpful and caring!!!
They were the nicest shop I have ever been to. They agreed to look at my car when I came in at 4:50 and they closed at 5. They explained everything in full detail and they even took me under the car to show me what was going on.
They had a delightful attitude the entire time and seemed to genuinely care about us.
I would come back here in an instant. :)

Last Friday night I had the unfortunate experience of overheating on highway 20, about 90 miles from civilization, and with no cell phone service. After hitch hiking into the lovely Mazama, WA and spending the night, I got a tow back to Sedro Woolley. Carl (from Carl’s towing) helped set me up with Brenda (service advisor) from Vollans when we got in cell range, and even though they were closing at 2pm (on a saturday) and our expected arrival was 1pm, they agreed to get me in.
When I arrived Chris (the owner) was smiles and took me in straight away. He was very forthcoming and said «it all comes down to parts if we can get you done today». I *absolutely* appreciate any business owner being forthcoming — it’s a sign of a good place to be.
We waited about 10 minutes for the diagnosis, and indeed my radiator decided to split right open after 205k miles. Lucky for me my 1999 infiniti I30t is the same car as the 1999 maxima, and the part was in stock, and we could be fixed in about an hour. He sent us off the the super Mestizo Mexican restaurant to kill some time and watch a world cup match… and maybe have a margarita :-)
Even though he was due to close at 2pm, he personally assisted his main tech and wrapped up at 230pm and had us back on the road.
I cannot recommend this shop enough: Great smiles, excellent pricing, and willing to go the extra mile when it counted. Thank you Chris and Brenda for getting us home!

After having service done at many shops in Sedro-​Woolley I’m confident in saying that Vollans has been my best mechanic experience in Skagit County. The service manager, Tim, is the best service manager I’ve encountered at any auto shop anywhere. I’ve observed the technicians getting along really well and in positive, happy spirits during all of my visits. I’ve noticed that Chris, the owner, is well-​liked and respected by his customers. The prices are very fair. The estimates are fair and realistic, not padded. The shop is clean. The service is friendly. The location is super convenient, right on Metcalf. Thank goodness, I finally found «my» auto shop.

Super friendly. Got the work done quick with extremely fair prices. If I lived close to Vollans Automotive, they would be my go-​to for everything car related!

I was dropping my son off at his trade school on a Sunday night, after his weekend visit at home, when our car over heated and I had to leave it over night in this town. We didn’t want to rent a tow-​dolly and tow it all the way home, so I looked up auto shops in this town on the net and on Unilocal.After reading reviews and info about some of the shops here, I chose this shop and called them first thing Monday morning. They were more than happy to have a look at our car. We live about an hour and a half away from Sedro Woolley, so it was late morning before we could get the car to this shop. They are very nice people and they took great care of us. They replaced the radiator and cooling lines. They could have had it ready for us to pick up on Tues, but we weren’t able to trek back out there until Thurs.
We recommend this shop for the good work, friendly service, and decent prices. They really know how to treat people right and are very fair and honest.
We would definitely have these guys be our regular shop, IF we lived closer to them.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, Vollans Automotive!

Unfortunately, Vollans has changed ownership and Kevin the office manager is no longer employed there. The new owner tried to charge my teenage son for an excessive amount of shop time. I was astounded that he would try to rob a young kid. I had to step in and let him know that he was acting fraudelent. In the end, I feel that we were still way overcharged for the installation of headlights. At first the owner was trying to charge my son $ 262 and I called him out on the actual amount of time they spent on my sons car. I ended up paying $ 185 in shop time which I still believe was a total rip off. I will never do business there again and I will no longer send my clients to them for repairs.
