Volvo has long been at the forefront of safety research, introducing the first three-point seat belt, as well as padded dashboards, front and rear energy-resistant crumple zones, childproof locks, collapsible steering columns, and rear-facing child seats. Today, Volvo vehicles also offer generous amounts of style and performance. If your Volvo needs repairs, we can help you return to the road with your vehicles performance and safety intact.
At Pasadena Motor Cars, we know Volvo vehicles just as well as the Volvo dealerships. Our technicians stay up-to-date on the latest Volvo technology and features to ensure we can take care of your vehicle whether you need an oil change or engine replacement. If you live in the Pasadena area, we hope you’ll count on us to keep your Volvo performing at its best.
If any warning lights display on your Volvo vehicle, you should head to an auto repair shop as soon as possible (at a minimum within the next 600 miles). Generally, your motor oil and filter must be changed at least once a year, and this may be the culprit. However, if you’re driving in optimal conditions, your vehicle might not indicate the need for vehicle service for more than a year. At Pasadena Motor Cars, our trained technicians can accurately determine when your Volvo needs maintenance, exactly when and not before or after it’s necessary.
The brake pads on your Volvo vehicle are equipped with wear indicators that will produce a squealing noise when the brakes are almost worn out. The noise will start when there is about 2 mm of brake pad friction remaining, which is when brake pads need to be replaced. If you are hearing this noise, your brake pads should be replaced as soon as possible. (The noise may be present even when you’re not applying the brake pedal.) At Pasadena Motor Cars, we can help with all your Volvo service needs.
If you live in Pasadena, CA, Pasadena Motor Cars is here for your Volvo’s regular maintenance as well as unexpected repairs. You can trust us to service your Volvo professionally and courteously, all with the goal of putting you back behind the wheel with a smile on your face.
