I have over forty years of service here at Smythe Volvo. The complete level of comfort in knowing all the employees and customers very well is definitely the best part about working here. My favorite Volvo is the Cross Country Wagon. It's an AWD utility vehicle but still more like a car than a truck. It also has a good track record mechanically, performs and handles well. When I'm away from work, spending time with my family is my number one priority, especially with my two grandsons.

Two Recent Repairs I have had to bring in two different cars for two different reasons in the past week or so. I purchased both cars at Smythe and continue to service t I have had to bring in two different cars for two different reasons in the past week or so. I purchased both cars at Smythe and continue to service them there. In fact, we purchased our first car from them in 1993 and have been loyal customers since that time. Given the amount of choices we have in the area, I have to say that Smythe goes the extra mile (no pun intended) and really earns our business. I am continually impressed by the personnel there and their deep interest in doing what is right and making sure we have the best experience possible. I like the new dealership and enjoy the waiting time in the new lounge area. My most recent experience was today when I had a new set of tires installed and a brake pad replacement. Both were done as promised and it is amazing what a new set of tires feel like compared to the old ones. Nick did a great job advising me about the tires (I had come in to have one repaired) and for also seeing that the brakes needed attention. My trust in the team gave me confidence that the new set of tires was appropriate and confirmed a suspicion that I had. While I was there, I was also able to order a part for one of my cars and Scott did a great job locating it and ordering it for me. I also recognize some of the others who helped me on my last visit (Tom, Tina and Doug). Tony continues to be a big help in making sure I am well taken care of. Thanks to the team! More

It's a b When you're sick, do you go to a veterinarian? Of course not. You need a highly trained & specialized Doctor. Same thing w/ your Volvo. It's a better value to have a Smythe Volvo Factory Trained Technician diagnose your issue correctly & complete a flawless repair the 1st time w/ the same high quality parts the car came with (not cheap aftermarket parts that fail early), than gamble with a local mechanic who doesn't specialize in Volvo, is not Factory Trained, & doesn't install genuine Volvo parts on your car. There's an old adage "Jack of all trades is master of none." Go where the knowledge is. I'm listened to, heard, and get valuable advise from my Service Advisor Doug. They've a new comfortable customer lounge. Work is done right the 1st time. Whether it's commuting, summer vacation, or cross country road trip, I value having the confidence that my car is completely serviced. No drama-never had a car break down & plan to keep it that way. I value my time, & so do they. Thanks Doug, Brad, Scott, Greg, & the good folks at Smythe Volvo. More

Pleasant to work with Recently purchased a Volvo XC60, a used 2013 model. The car buying experience was pleasant, professional and comfortable. I felt confident that my sal Recently purchased a Volvo XC60, a used 2013 model. The car buying experience was pleasant, professional and comfortable. I felt confident that my sales representative understood the vehicles and took the time to understand my needs in a vehicle. I would recommend the dealership. In addition, I had a tow hitch installed and the service department was very interested in making the service experience as pleasant, comfortable and professional as the buying experience. I worked with Kristian to purchase the vehicle and Doug for the tow hitch install. Thank you both. More

They are truly a family business and treat you like family! Kevin Flanagan, following in his father's footsteps, heads up an incredibly patient, kind, and knowledgeable sales team. The service department if fabulous - Nick, Tony, Doug & Tom know my name whenever I stop in and have gone above and beyond for me on several occasions. DO NOT even shop around - you will never find honesty, integrity, and such high service standards at any other dealership!!! More

Emergency repair of S80. We have been with Smythe Volvo for over ten years. We currently own two older Volvos, a 2004 Volvo XC-90 and a 2008 S80. We can think of no other plac We have been with Smythe Volvo for over ten years. We currently own two older Volvos, a 2004 Volvo XC-90 and a 2008 S80. We can think of no other place to have the servicing of these vehicles. Every time we had an issue the service department has come through with flying colors. This time was no exception. Even though I did not have a scheduled appointment, Doug and Tony got the S80 checked out and repaired. I thought I was going to miss an important meeting but their diligence and hard work allowed the car to be repaired and back on the road in plenty of time. They are truly the best. More
