***WHY should you read and consider my review? Because I worked here for a few years, and can offer…read morean honest, no-axe-to-grind insight as to prices AND what seems to be a fixation of reviewers here, the personalities you'll encounter there.*** N.E.A.R. is the best of the best if you need parts for your Euro-Heap to keep it running. Fair prices, and the best selection in the region. Now... As far as the stories about the lunatic who owns the place... They are ALL TRUE. He should probably be institutionalized for his own safety, considering the number of people he's infuriated over the years. That said, IF you can keep a sense of humor, and don't take yourself, or him, too seriously, you can get out of there with the exact parts you need, and at a reasonable price. If you are: Thin-skinned, humorless, need to be treated courteously, or with even a shred of dignity, or in a hurry, then this is NOT NOT NOT the place to go. Instead, visit Ravenna Motors, and buy your part new, pay 10 times (that's not a typo, or an exaggeration) what it would have run you at N.E.A.R. & leave with your nerves and sanity intact, and your wallet considerably lighter. This is what the British refer to as a "False Economy" which is a polite way of saying "You cheap-ass SOB, you've now spent two days docking around with this car and it STILL doesn't run the way it should (or at all) and you're no closer to fixing it. Swallow your pride, spend the money, and take your ass to the dealership, post-haste." Also, it's worth mentioning that sometimes a new part really IS necessary, and buying one off a junked car is unwise. This is because while they DO offer a "Lifetime Guarantee" on most parts sold, more often than not that represents a guarantee that you will spend a lifetime working on your car because you have mis-diagnosed the problem, OR because the used part is faulty. And, as stated, they'll happily swap it out for another, with the same caveat in place. And you will then be officially on the merry-go-round of "Guess What's Wrong With My Car", which is something I wouldn't wish on most people. A better option is to take your car (ESPECIALLY if it's pre-1992) to an independent mechanic who specializes in Volvos and get a correct diagnosis. THEN, and only then should you proceed to decide whether to buy new or used. Of course money is a factor in any decision, but chances are if you're trolling junkyards for a part, you are trying to save a buck, or are just morally offended by the idea of a $300 tail light. If money is NOT a concern, then don't fuck about. Go to the dealership closest to you, and get the part and job done correctly.

This company, and the people who work here, are AMAZING ! I can not express this enough. I have…read morebeen going here for several years now and they always provide great service for a good price, but they always find a way to go above and beyond. Here are my two standout experiences... A while back my car said it was overheating. I stopped by a Grease Monkey and they said I needed a new part that they would have to order and gave me a deadline. I was very suspicious of this . I then went to Burien Truck Repair and they told me they would look and charge me a diagnostic fee. In the end, they didn't need a new part, it just needed to be cleaned. They did that, lumped the diagnostic fee into the repair since they actually did it and saved me $200-300. They also gave me a ride to work while I waited! Next! Biggie! Things have been rough and my plate was stacked. I was pulling into the dentist last week and I suddenly heard the most horrendous noise. I was expecting to see a pipe dragging. Very flustered, I went in and the hygienist said she heard it too. I called BTR and Christy had me hold my phone out and drive back and forth a bit. She said that sounded terrible and, while they were about to close, rush over. I pulled in, getting many WTF looks. Christy ran over with another guy saying she heard it from the back. They immediately looked at it and said it wasn't safe to drive home and said they'd be on it first thing...and AGAIN gave me a ride! I got a call around 9 and...it was a rock. I drove over a rock and it wedged itself up behind my tire. The charge? $0! Wholly moly! So basically they are the best, not just in customer service and car repair, but hi just all around standout people. I can not express this enough. I would, and do, recommend them to everyone for everything. A million thanks to the whole Burien Truck Repair team!

They initially replaced the battery (at premium prices), but the car died again two days later. After towing it back, they kept it for a week with no updates, eventually charging me nearly $1,000 in labor just to "tighten cables" and drive it around town. When the issue returned again a few days later, I gave up and went to the dealership. They fixed it same-day, and it hasn't stalled since. I love supporting local shops, but save your money and go elsewhere unless you only need a basic oil change.
