I started here at Smythe Volvo at the age of 18 as a porter. Over the last 30 years I became an Apprentice Mechanic, Mechanic, Sales Consultant, Sales Manager, General Manager, Owner then President/CEO. My favorite aspect of working at Smythe Volvo is the interaction with our customers. It's a pleasure to get to know them personally and to see them happy with our level of service. My favorite Volvo model is the 1965 P1800. It's a sporty and extremely durable vehicle that signifies the heritage of Volvo. It's silhouette can be seen in the Smythe Volvo logo. Outside of work my complete focus is on my wonderful wife and six children.

I have a 2003 Volvo that is long past warranty. I took the vehicle to a local garage and was advised that the turbo charger was blown and I had to replace it. He further advised that he could do the job More

Wow, Mike that is a stellar review! Thank you. This is not a fluke; rather, it is what we do every day. Honesty is one of the best tools we have to earn repeat business. You bring up a point that we battle against frequently. Many people think that a dealership is more likely to take advantage of a customer. That is not the case at Smythe Volvo. We see our customers and their children come into the shop time after time through the years. Its sounds cliché but we really do have a family atmosphere and relationship with our customers. We are fortunate to enjoy such loyalty and we treat that loyalty a precious commodity. See you at your next service.

This ended up being a service call with Doug that moved easily into a sales conversation with Kevin and ultimately Steve. I say "easily" because the service that has been performed since 2006 on our XC90, More

What a great Volvo story. We have quite a few Volvo families. Because of safety and reliability, it is a great car to hand down to new drivers. Many times we get to know these young drivers and be a part of their life from their early driving days to when they are handing their Volvos to their children. It is very rewarding. Thank you for taking the time to post your positive experience.
