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.

This dealership is as honest as they can possibly be. I worked with Kevin Flanigan over a 2 week period and he was fantastic. He always responded to my calls and e mails immediatley. The lease price i got worked with Kevin Flanigan over a 2 week period and he was fantastic. He always responded to my calls and e mails immediatley. The lease price i got was the best deal around and he stood by his word and did everything he said he would. Kevin is a family guy that owns the dealership and he takes great pride in what he does. I also had the pleasure of meeting his finance manager Alex, he is also a great honest guy with NO hidden agendas. THIS DEALERSHIP IS LIKE NO OTHER, That is why i gave them 5 stars across the board.Sincerely, Gerry More

I purchased my first Volvo from Smythe. And it was the first of many satisfying experiences. I kept the first Volvo for more than 20 years and always had it serviced at Smythe. They kept it running i first of many satisfying experiences. I kept the first Volvo for more than 20 years and always had it serviced at Smythe. They kept it running in top notched condition for in excess of 500 thousand miles. The service was always excellent and the team of mechanics were dependable, reliable, informative and very professional and above all, always courteous. My second, third and fourth Volvo I also purchased from Smythe, all three were serviced at Smythe. I have had a total of 5 Volvos—1979 DL, 1988 240, 1994 940, 2000 S80, 2006 S80, all of which were serviced at Smythe. I still own three of the five (the 1988, 2000 an the 2006) with 500, 200, and 66 thousand miles respectively. Infrequently, I have had at least one of the Volvos I owned serviced at other Volvo dealerships, but for some reason I always feel the need to go back to Smythe, probably because of the quality of work and the attentiveness of the Team of mechanics at Smythe—I feel that I can unquestionably depend on them to do the highest quality work the first time around—and that has always been the case for the last 30 years or more of my experience with them. I have never been dissatisfied or unhappy with the quality of work performed at Smythe. And mainly because of the friendliness and quality of work produce by the Volvo Team—Sean, Kevin, Nick, Tony, Doug, Tom, Gary and all the floor mechanics, I have and will continue to very highly recommend Smythe Volvo to anyone who plans to purchase or have a Volvo serviced.

Smythe Volvo is what a car dealership should be. That is, a collection of talented individuals working together for your benefit. They have successfully found the formula that leaves you the customer with th a collection of talented individuals working together for your benefit. They have successfully found the formula that leaves you the customer with the feeling that they won’t rest until your concerns or problems have been successfully dealt with. This past week, I was once again reminded why I have purchased or leased all 4 of the Volvos I’ve driven over the past 30 plus years from Smythe. My current lease is almost up on my 2010 XC60, and I had an inspection by the leasing bank’s representative scheduled for Monday 3/12. It was Thursday morning 3/8 and I had just become aware the evening before that my sunroof wouldn’t open. I called the Service Department and spoke to Doug to see if they could just sneak me in on Friday, so that someone could take a look at the sunroof so that I had a story for the inspector on Monday. Not only did they get me in, but they were also able to perform a scheduled 30,000 mile service and do some other previously unknown warranty work, in preparation for my inspection. They were also able to provide me with a loaner car at such short notice. I cannot say enough about the entire Smythe Volvo family. The Service Department is top notch. But it doesn’t stop there. Smythe Volvo stands behind the product that they sell. In fact, when we took possession of our 2010 XC60 three years ago, we had some issues. The model was brand new and had some growing pains. We had the vehicle in and out of the shop on a few occasions early on and the Service Dept determined that there were some software problems that were just beginning to surface in the model line and did their best to solve them. Unrequested, Sean Flanagan & Craig Melquist arranged to replace our vehicle with a new one. To this day, I’m still impressed that their pride in their product drove them to do the right thing, without even being asked. I currently am driving a 2006 S40 with over 100,000 miles. I am confident that Smythe Volvo will help me to keep my car on the road and provide me with another pleasant purchasing experience once I decide to trade up. More
