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.

Fantastic dealership Smythe Volvo is the reason we purchased our 3rd Volvo since 1999. They have gone above and beyond on all our cars. Kevin and the sales department se Smythe Volvo is the reason we purchased our 3rd Volvo since 1999. They have gone above and beyond on all our cars. Kevin and the sales department searched the eastern seaboard to find our new S60 to obtain the maximum sales incentives. The service department is phenomenal and attentive. The new facility is great and spacious. More

Exceptional service Chris dedicated himself to find the exact car I wanted before the deadline for a Volvo promotion. The car was delivered on time at an excellent price. Chris dedicated himself to find the exact car I wanted before the deadline for a Volvo promotion. The car was delivered on time at an excellent price. Always patient and knowledgeable in answering my questions. This was the second Volvo we bought from Chris and won't be the last. The new showroom and service area was spotless and very comfortable. Doug has overseen the routine serving of our 2010 S80 in the most professional manner - never a problem. More

Great Service that keeps my XC70 going Strong! Sure my Volvo is 10 yrs old and running strong. The reason is the service folks at Smythe who are the ongoing face of the dealership. Doug, Tom, Tony, Sure my Volvo is 10 yrs old and running strong. The reason is the service folks at Smythe who are the ongoing face of the dealership. Doug, Tom, Tony, and Nick do a great job explaining the Why's and What' if's. "Why" this should be done and and the questions I always ask "what if" I don't take care of this now. I always leave with a feeling if you've spent your money, it was for a reason..The service folks are always respectful and accommodating. Smythe, always a class act, and their service dept is second to none!! More

Used Car Service Visit Although my family has been buying cars from Smythe for years, I am a new customer. I recently purchased a 2010 Volvo C30 from the dealership. I purch Although my family has been buying cars from Smythe for years, I am a new customer. I recently purchased a 2010 Volvo C30 from the dealership. I purchased my car directly from the owner, Kevin Flanagan. Kevin was very helpful and always available throughout the buying process. I felt comfortable relying on him. Most importantly, I feel like the member of a new community. That's one of the obvious benefits of dealing with a family-owned company, like Smythe. Doug MacAdam, my service adviser, has been instrumental in this process. He is very knowledgeable and professional. He has also been working with my family for years. Overall, I have had a great experience with Smythe, and I will surely recommend them to my friends and other family. More

Service with No Surprises, No Hassles Doug MacAdam and his team really goes the extra mile. I have stayed with Smythe for service of my older Volvo (w/ 135K miles!) even though I could sa Doug MacAdam and his team really goes the extra mile. I have stayed with Smythe for service of my older Volvo (w/ 135K miles!) even though I could save $$ going to an independent mechanic. The reason why I stay is the great customer service Doug provides. He also just saved me a trip in - my Check Engine Light went on, and he went through a list of items that could have caused it. And bingo, one of them was a loose gas cap...how easy of a fix that was...and I didn't have to bring my car into the shop. Doug always calls me back in a prompt manner to answer questions/concerns like this; hence why I continue to use Smythe for service. Hopefully soon I'll be able to trade-in my 7 year old Volvo for a new one...I'll be sure to get it serviced at Smythe...even if I don't buy it there! Thanks Doug! More
