Consumer Comments for Volvo Cars Bellevue

Consumer from Newcastle, WA

Avoid the service department. I have an 18 year old V70R that has been serviced by Barrier, Auto Nation and now the Swickard Group. I have followed recommended maintenance service intervals and the car has been very reliable. During the last two years I have been disappointed in the number of times I have had to return my car to the service department only to have them correct a problem with something they had serviced. I have noticed a significant change in the quality of service during the last two years and I will no longer be using Volvo Cars of Bellevue or any dealer associated with the Swickard Group. Unfortunately, I will no longer consider a Volvo as my next car since this group seems to have taken over the Volvo dealerships in the Seattle area.

This was my first time to Barrier Volvo for service. They were very easy to deal with and clear on the process. Prices were high but not sure if that is due to the Volvo brand or the dealership. The ride to and from work was very nice and I had a great experience @ Barrier Volvo.
