Buyer beware. We bought this A/C machine in 2023 and because our fleet is still mostly R134 we’ve used it 4 times. On the 5th time the O2 sensor needs to be replaced. It’s plastic, about the size of a C battery. It’s $700. I’d avoid Bosch/Robinair - the customer service is horrible.

🎀 Help Fill Her Bow! 🎀

We’re kicking off a fundraiser to support Shelby's daughter Kallie as she heads into her second year of cheer, and we couldn’t be more excited! She absolutely fell in love with it last season, and we’re so proud of how much she’s grown and how hard she works.

To help with costs for uniforms, competitions, and more, we’re doing a “Fill My Bow” fundraiser. Each section represents a donation amount, every little bit truly helps and means so much to us!

💗 Ways to donate: Add your name to the comment:
• Cash
• Apple Pay
• Cash App $shelb430
• Zelle [email protected]

If you’d like to support her journey, just comment, message Shelby, or pick an amount from the bow! Thank you so much for your love and support it truly means everything to us.

✨ Let’s fill this bow together! ✨

Wishing a Happy Birthday to the one who keeps this whole place running, our amazing office manager, Shelby! 🎉

From juggling schedules to keeping all the guys in line (which is no small task 😅), you handle it all with strength, patience, and just the right amount of sass (sometimes). We truly don’t know what we’d do without you holding everything together behind the scenes.

We appreciate everything you do more than words can say, and today we celebrate YOU! Hope your day is filled with laughter, appreciation, and maybe a little break from keeping everyone in check 😉

Cheers to another year!🥳

🎉 Happy Birthday, Paul! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating one of the best in the shop, our technician, Paul! From diagnosing the tough ones to keeping our customers safely on the road, your hard work and dedication don’t go unnoticed.

We appreciate everything you do here at Swedish Garage and are lucky to have you on the team. Hope your day is filled with good food, great company, and maybe a break from turning wrenches (just for today 😉).

Drop a comment below to wish Paul a happy birthday! 🎂🎈

Holiday shipping aside, FedEx needs to get it together. Every day this week our NextDay AM orders are arriving at the end of the day. Can’t do business like this.

Happy Birthday to this guy. Peter is irreplacable and does his job very well. Everyone wish Peter aka StinkEye aka Mr. Burns a happy birthday. Couldn’t do what we do without him.
