Volvo - any service location alternates to dealership?

Can anyone recommend a good mechanic for a Volvo XC-90? I'm trying to find an alternate for my mother who keeps taking it to the dealership and getting charged $. I searched this forum and nothing came up, should I just google or find a Volvo car enthusiast forum? The specific problems are an anti-skid warning coming up on warning computer and water under the passenger's side floor.

I take my V40 to Nordic Motors in San Carlos: http://nordicmotors.com/

Carl is very straightforward and helpful.

The Bay Area isn't very specific when describing where you live...
