Our Story
A Family-Run Shop, Built on Honesty
A & M Foreign Car Services has spent decades earning New Haven’s trust one honest diagnosis at a time. Customers who’ve been coming here for over 20 years still talk about the same thing: a shop that tells you the truth about your car, even when the truth costs them a sale.
The shop’s specialty is Volvos and other import makes — the kind of cars that leave a lot of general mechanics guessing. Here, they’re not guessing. Between keeping vintage Volvos running for two decades and getting drivers back on I-95 the same day after a breakdown, this is a team that has genuinely seen it all.
Customers know the people behind the counter by name — regulars have thanked “Van & Kim” directly for keeping their cars (and their bumpers) in one piece. It’s that kind of place: personal, straightforward, and more interested in being right than being fast to upsell.
“No one I’ve ever met at a repair shop has ever been transparent and honest about their assessment of my car… my recommendation was, ‘Your vehicle is fine. Just keep driving as usual. There’s nothing to worry.’”
