My Volvo XC90's AC gave up right as summer hit, blowing warm air like it had personally given up on me. I brought it in and got fantastic service -- clear communication, seriously knowledgeable techs, and the car was ready exactly when promised. No upsells, no runaround, just honest, expert work. Eaven was amazing and restored faith in keeping older cars running with good old fashioned honest service. read more

Eaven and Alyssa are simply the best! Eaven knows his stuff and, when needed, he is creative in finding work arounds that don't break the bank. I have taken multiple cars to him now and they have never let me down, the cars are repaired professionally, reasonably and their communication is top notch. They even got my old '72 Porsche running again after sitting for years. I won't take my cars anywhere else. It's so comforting and reassuring to have a trusted mechanic. read more

Marcum Motors - '72 Porsche getting repaired at Marcum Motors! - Auto Repair Near Me - San Rafael, California

Evan @ Marcum did a great job on a full brake replacement. Quick and at reasonable cost.

Wow! Eaven knows cars. What strikes me most is his level of intellect. A friend of mine that is an exotic car collector recommended Eavan, but my car was my son's Mercedes C300 with a complex sensor issue. His technical skills are incredible. I highly recommend him to you and to all my friends. Thank you, Eaven for really going the extra mile. I also like the way he treated me, a woman, like a fellow intellect unlike some other automotive shops. read more

Great service, honest opinions on the work that needed to be done. Very friendly service down to earth people.

Highly recommend Evan and Marcum Motors. His experience as a mechanic and business owner along with his wife Alyssa who both showed such integrity and great customer care do the experience was wonderful . Evan spent time on the phone with me following my service at BMW San Rafael where a a few costly items were suggested that I did not feel were needed. I took the car to Marcum motors for a second opinion since Evan has years experience with BMW's and his inspection saved me lots of money. I plan to do all my service and repairs with them. We won't need a dealer for service. read more

https://marcummotorsmarin.com/ Honest. Reliable. Fair. Knowledgeable. Friendly. Customer Priority. Quality Service. Eaven was amazing! Referred by a friend, Eaven met us at his shop on his day off when the shop was actually closed to help us get our son's car back on the road while he was in town for the holidays. We had taken the car to the dealer and they upsold over $7,000 worth of work. We just didn't feel right about what we were being "sold". Eaven explained each item and carefully examined the necessity of replacing "everything they suggested" right now. Although a couple of items were necessary, most were not, and Eaven gave us peace of mind that our son's car was in good shape to drive home safely - and we'll keep an eye on a few things for later. Eaven's pricing was extremely fair - WAY less than the dealer and we left the shop with a "shout it from a mountaintop" feeling. We would HIGHLY recommend using Eaven at Marcum Motors. We have owned and run a successful car repair shop in our past and my husband was an ASE Certified Technician for many, many years. We took pride in being THAT shop that our customers would refer with confidence. Now it's time to pass the baton. Marcum Motors will not let you down. Thank you for your stellar service, Eaven!! read more

I'm so pleased I found Markum Motors when looking for a shop to service my Fiat500e. Eaven and Alyssa provided very prompt, efficient and friendly customer service. Eaven is a very knowledgeable and talented mechanic, and his rates are fair and competitive.I will be back with my BMW. Highly recommended. read more

Can't say enough good things. From setting my appointment to picking up my car, I'm glad I listened to someone's rec.

My partner and I have had several cars worked on by Markum Motors over the past six months: a 1990 Ford f250 truck, a 2016 Ford C-Max hybrid, and a 2023 BMW 325i. Three very different cars with very different issues, electrical, transmission, steering, lights, brakes.... Evan was expert in diagnosing the problems with each vehicle, was clear in his explanations and offered a range of solutions that kept our budget and schedule in mind. We felt well taken care of. I'm a former mechanic myself, and I'm super impressed with Evan's capabilities. Highly recommend him and his team read more

I've been to Marcum Motors a couple of times now, and I just have to share how great they are! So far, I've had a tow hitch installed, two oil changes, and my tires rotated, and I couldn't be happier with the service. Eaven was super easy to work with--really honest and made the whole process a breeze. The team is quick, efficient, and the pricing is very fair. Plus, there's a Starbucks just down the street where you can hang out while you wait! It's hard to find a shop you can really trust with your car, but I'll definitely be coming back to Marcum Motors for any future work! read more

Eaven at Marcum Motors recently did a masterful job making repairs on my Nissan work van. We brought it to him with an issue, and he attempted a repair to avoid "the big repair" first. Only after that did not work, he suggested "the big repair" and completed it on time and on budget. He listened to my concerns throughout the project, went above and beyond testing the vehicle to ensure my employee's safety in it, and was easy to communicate with. Bonus points that he's a local small business (who doesn't love supporting those?) He is my family's new go-to outfit. read more

I called Marcum Motors because I was having some questions about my BMW and I needed a 50,000 mile check up. Eaven asked my availability and I was able to get it right in and have the work done. He was prompt and efficient. He did to inspection and oil change and explained some other issues that I may want to keep an eye on and what it would entail to fix them down the line. He gave me a general idea of cost. I know he is a very busy realtor (I have used him for my agent on sales and purchases - excellent) and a very dedicated car mechanic (his passion). He seamlessly takes care of business, is fair and very personable. I have referred a few friends that have been very pleased with his work. read more

Excellent service! Eaven is super responsive and great to work with - he had my car fixed in 24 hours and for a great price!

Great mechanic, I've known Eaven for nearly 20 years. Does quality work, especially for European vehicles. He definitely has a passion for it, his work proves it. read more
