I recently bought a XC40 at Valentine Volvo and had the pleasure of working with Allan, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. He demonstrated a perfect blend of professionalism and genuine enthusiasm throughout the entire car-buying process.
I really felt that Allan was went above and beyond to address any concerns. He was never pushy and truly understood my needs, working toward my preferences and budget. He made the entire process went smoothly
I did visit other Car dealers, Allan's sincerity and customer service truly set him apart. Even though the other Volvo dealership is closer to where I live, I don't mind traveling a bit farther to have Allen take care of the business.
Very much enjoyed the whole buying experience, I highly recommend Allan!
Lastly but not least, thanks very much to Mila, showing me all the high tech details in the car, as I am not very techy on that. Thanks for her patience. Very good experience in Valentine Volvo!
The service is great at this dealership. Always been accomodated with a shuttle when I requiered it. Thanks to Dany and Sebastien at the service who are always helpfull. Two thumbs up!
My wife and I recently bought our first volvo from this dealer. The service was excellent. Our salesman Shannon was very helpful every step of the sale.
A five-star rating for both Paul (owner) and Richard (sales), equating to a 10-star review for Valentine Volvo. When an issue arose (the first in 10 years of owning my XC-60), it was addressed IMMEDIATELY. Their responses and remedy were ABOVE AND BEYOND. If you're in the market for a luxury vehicle, be sure to start your search at Valentine Volvo!
Craig sold me a 2020 Volvo S60-R. Great to deal with and easy to talk to. Lots of life experience and am really glad things are working for him in Alberta. It was an enjoyable experience purchasing from here. Craig had a lot to do with that! Thanks Craig.
Shannon helped us purchase our first Volvo and we have nothing but incredible things to say both about the vehicle and him! He and the entire team were zero pressure, professional, answered all our questions and were flexible with us as we took time to find the perfect vehicle. We also had a slight detailing issue we discovered and was fixed within 24 hours - and they came to us to do it! Thanks Shannon for everything, we will be Valentine Volvo customers for a long time to come!
I just bought my first Volvo a few weeks ago from Valentine Volvo. I have always wanted an XC90. Shannon made that happen and was great to work with. He answered all of our questions and concerns. He even made himself available on off hours. His cheery and kind demeanour put me at ease while I was making this purchase. Shannon went above and beyond to make sure the car was perfect and that I was happy. There were a couple hiccups along the way, but Shannon was always there to assist even when it was out of his control. We are very pleased with our vehicle and would highly suggest Shannon and Valentine Volvo!
My hubby and I just bought our first Volvo from Valentine. I’m happy to say we’re very pleased with our experience.
We started the process in October and visited several dealerships in search of a new compact SUV. I have to say from the start Shannon was friendly and professional and tried to get to know us better so he could make recommendations catered to us. We actually came to Volvo to eliminate it from our list of contenders and it quickly jumped to the top of our list.
We were not quite ready to make a decision in the fall and really took our time to weigh out our options. Shannon kept in touch with us along the way. In late December we went back in for a second look at the XC40 and Shannon helped us choose the right model for us. He was great at communicating throughout the process and helped us make an informed decision.
We took delivery of the car this past weekend and the staff was friendly and helpful. Odessa at reception remembered us from only being there a couple of times, which I thought was good customer service. Mila was very helpful during delivery and she ensured we were comfortable with using the vehicle, especially since it’s our first Volvo.
Overall, we had a very good experience and I would recommend this dealership to family and friends.
I get my XC-90 serviced here and have consistently had great experiences. The most recent was the best. I had two sick young children with me b/c the winter weather was changing fast and they were home from school. And the service appts were booked far in advance. So I brought them with me. Sebastian was super professional and helpful and made sure my vehicle was processed ASAP. Everything was smooth. The staff overall were so helpful and kind to my circumstances. Will be forever grateful! Thanks, team at VV!
Picked up my new XC40 yesterday and loving every bit of it. Thank you Shannon for making this such a smooth transaction for me. From going through my car options to actually taking one home with me. I’m very satisfied.
We immensely disliked the car-buying process. Valentine Volvo was a breath of fresh air. Shannon made us feel like we were a team. He worked very hard to help us understand options and the car’s overall suitability for us. He was immensely patient. Mila helped us learn about our new purchase and Rebecca in the business office was fun to work with. A very strong team.
There were still many challenges with the process and it was very hard to decide on trim packages based on a name on an excel spreadsheet and small pictures on the web. There many other challenges but Shannon, Mila and Rebecca made it much better.thanks team!
Had great experience of getting our 2nd Volvo here! Shannon and Yuan and other staff we have met are so helpful, friendly and professional. I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone who's interested in Volovo.
Always a great experience with Valentine! Shannon was awesome, answered all of our questions and helped us along our new car lease experience with absolutely zero pressure. We ended up with a beautiful XC90! Thanks again!
I have great experience with Greg and Yuan when purchasing my new car. They provide me with accurate information and timeline and deliver as promised. Thank you!
Absolutely the best experience with a brand dealer I've EVER had! Everything from the word go was hands down a 5 star experience. Chose the used vehicle we were after, and they had the entire process wrapped up in 2 days. Amazed at the accessories pricing, the roof racks I wanted were 340 dollars cheaper at Volvo, than the CapIt Thule dealer. Also our salesman Trevor threw in some pretty nice extras. Barely used winter Michelin tires, and a completely new set of rims with quality tires. I've always been a fan of Volvo and now I will be a customer as long as I'm driving vehicles. Thank-you to Trevor, and everyone else who helped us into our dream car.
Best dealership I've ever dealt with, Craig made everything so easy and quick. We drove 12 hours to get here and they were so accommodating. Very happy with our purchase and the service.
I don’t typically leave reviews however Valentine Volvo gave me some of the best customer service of my life! My (older) Volvo broke down in Calgary, it ended up needing a gigantic repair. After getting quotes from different mechanics, here was the most affordable. Their cooperation with working with me while from a different city was top notch. To say it was a seamless, FAST and thoroughly well done job would be an understatement! Thank you Valentine Volvo and Devon for everything:)
Got the plug-in hybrid 2022 SUV from these guys around a week ago, was shopping for a new vehicle for around four weeks, and decided on Volvo because of decent rates and value-to-price ratio, but what really supported our choice is the attitude and expertise of salesperson. Thank you, Shannon, for your prompt, professional (non-pushy) approach and for answering all our meticulous questions.
We bought a pre-owned vehicle at Valentine from Greg with help from Rebecca in the business office. The entire process from start to finish was exceptional. We are looking at a second car in the near future and will be going back to Valentine without hesitation.
We bought our first Volvo from Shannon McDonald at Valentine Volvo. He listened first, and gave us a tour through the Volvo lineup, patiently answered all of our questions and helped us understand the cost of each option. He showed genuine pride in the brand and the dealership itself. When it came to buy he facilitated the processes smoothly with considerable attention to details. Service was clearly important to him throughout. We are now proud owners of the XC60, and grateful to Shannon and all the staff at Valentine Volvo. Thanks for a great experience!
We recently purchased a vehicle from Valentine Volvo and were very pleased with the entire experience. Shannon McDonald was fantastic to deal with from the start.he helped us select the right model, navigated all the paper work for us, and kept us abreast of timing and all developments. Thank you Shannon for making the process seamless!
And a big shout out to Richard, the business office, and the rest of the team!
Craig made me feel welcome and respected. He answered all my questions, introduced me to the whole team and went out of his way to be sure I had all the info I needed to make my choice. All the staff made me feel welcome and at ease. It was a positive experience all around. I highly recommend them!
Update to my previous review, Paul reached out to me to see what my concerns were and addressed them right away. Very prompt and helpful. After the follow up service I can see why this dealership gets good reviews, it clearly has some great people in it who take things serious and care to actually help. Thank you for the great service Paul.
Sales, finance and service truly went above and beyond our expectations for the purchase of our new car. Hands down, this was the best car-buying experience we've ever had. I would highly recommend this dealership.
I have bought 4 cars in a row from Valentine Volvo and will buy more. I trust the people, the products and the service. I feel welcomed and valued there. A vehicle purchase is a big expenditure, and I believe Valentine Volvo takes that investment as seriously as I do. And I feel comfortable and confident in my XC60.
Shannon was wonderful to work with. He made sure we were 100% happy with all things related to our purchase before signing the paperwork. We couldn't have asked for a better person to help select our new vehicle. Such a great experience thanks to Shannon!
The level of professionalism, commitment and dedication to ensure a sensational experience was astounding. Regardless of the situation, Valentine Volvo's staff were there for support, and I felt like more than just a customer, more like part of the family. Great service, great vehicles and I'm excited to drive my new VOLVO XC60!
I don't write reviews often, but when I do, there's probably a good reason why. Recently, my family moved - out of Canada. We had purchased a Volvo XC90 back in 2014, and since it was our favorite car (and has performed admirably all these years), we didn't see any reason why we shouldn't bring it with us. That being said, bringing a car across the border requires a bit of paperwork, some of which was stuck in a moving van, the whereabouts of which were unknown. While I thought it was a long shot, I gave Valentine a call and asked if they could help me with some ancient paperwork. Much to my surprise, they were glad to do so - keep in mind that the odds of me spending another dime at Valentine is virtually zero, and despite this, they were more than willing to help out. If you are looking for a bit of "extra mile service", you have found it at Valentine!
Excellent service. Well talking about the parts department, they helped me out without asking cause they understood my situation. Big tumbs up, tks Oscar!
One word comes to mind: greed. I called to inquire / get a quote about replacing a water pump (as preventive maintenance I should point out!) on our daughter's S60. The lady that answered the phone after selecting "Service" said that would cost "about $900" (Did the same on our Mazda last week at 213k, cost was $275 plus GST for the labour with my own pump purchased from Amazon, I have the bill to prove it). Here's the sad part: Being mechanically literate, I ask the lady over the phone: "During the water pump replacement process, the secondary belt has to be removed, correct? ". She agreed. Then I said: "Then, what if instead putting back the old one (i.e. Secondary belt") I'll give you guys a new one (purchased from a Volvo dealership) and you put the new one instead? (the amount of work is literally the same). She said: "If you want us to put a new belt back, we will have to charge you an extra $400 for the labour". Wow! What labour? That removing and putting back that particular belt is part of the changing water pump process, it doesn't matter from a labour perspective whether the belt to be reinstalled is the existing used one or a new one! Why do I let others know about this? Because, I asked Kramer Mazda the same thing when they changed my water pump last week, and the lady (Anne-Lynn, super-nice in comparison to the Volvo person) said, "Of course, you are 100% correct, if you buy a new belt, we'll put that one back instead of the old one, at no extra cost - which can be proven by the bill I have). It's a shame that Valentine Volvo want (a lot of) money for something that other manufacturer dealerships do for free! So disappointed. I anticipate that their reply to my post will be something along the lines of "Mazdas have timing chain and Volvos have timing belt, etc" Yes, but both of those are not touched during the water pump replacement, so don't buy that. Also, pulley tensioner is the same concept on both cars, so no hiding behind that either. The only difference.see my first line!
Shannon (yes the same name as me) was very helpful and friendly and made sure all my questions were answered. I felt everything was transparent and there was no hidden fee's etc when I purchased. My first Volvo and so happy I went to Valentine Volvo to get mine. Also, the car is amazing.
We recently purchased an XC40 from Valentine Volvo and our experience was amazing. Our sales associate Shannon was very helpful, patient and informative. He made the purchase of our new vehicle very enjoyable and stress free. I would highly recommend both Valentine Volvo and Shannon for your next new car purchase!
We bought our second Volvo from Valentine Volvo and, once again, had a great experience. We worked with Shannon on purchasing a new XC90 and he made the process very smooth and easy. Overall, the Valentine Volvo dealership has been great to work with.
Just purchased our first Volvo here and couldn't be happier with the experience. Shannon was a first rate brand ambassador, helped us figure out the car that would work for our family and answered our many questions, both on and off hours. Yuan in finance was very helpful and knowledgable as well. We will definitely be back when it's time to upgrade.
My husband an I took our daughter to the dealership over the weekend, as we are looking to replace my current SUV for a V60 or XC60 within the next 12 months. We expressed this when we were greeted at the door as we did not want to take anyone's time when we aren't looking to buy right away. We were originally only looking to see the vehicles get an idea of cargo space, size, and how car seats would fit inside the vehicle.
We had the most attentive service from both Trever and Savannah, not only did they walk us through all of the features and functions they took the time to figure out exactly what packages we would like and would need to narrow down exactly what trim level with specific options to suit our lifestyle. Trevor even walked the lot with us to show us the different paint colors and show us units that had paint protection.
Overall the best car shopping experience I have personally ever received. - Valentine just earned themselves a life long customer. Thank you again Trevor and Savannah, we all greatly appreciate all of the time you spent with us.
After a disappointing experience with another brand's dealership, I popped into Valentine Volvo to have a look at leasing a new XC60. I was paired up with Savannah Pearce and it was easily the best car buying experience that I could have asked for. I explained to her what had happened and what I was looking for, and she immediately sent me off on a test drive, telling me to be gone as long as I wanted, and to really check out the car.
Once I came back, we chatted more, and it felt more like talking with an old friend rather than a sales transaction. We looked through the inventory and she found me exactly what I was looking for, on order, headed to their dealership in a few weeks.
She coordinated the trade-in of my old lease (different luxury brand), and matched the buyout value I had been offered before, and got me into the new car, for lower payments than I had been tempted with by the other dealership. Within an hour of arriving at the dealership, we had a signed deal. There was no stress, the negotiations were beyond easy, it was almost too pleasant! Haha
She was warm, friendly, easy to communicate with and kept me in the loop the whole way through as I waited for the arrival of my new car. I've already referred a couple of good friends her way, as I've never had a car buying experience quite like this in all 8 vehicles I've bought/leased over the years.
Great experience purchasing our first new Volvo at this dealership. Shannon is excellent to deal with. He is professional and friendly. All our negotiations were dealt with in a transparent manner. He was willing to answer all questions and we didn’t ever feel pressurized to make a decision to purchase a vehicle. He kept us updated by sending videos of the progress on the vehicle after we purchased it. This was an awesome touch! All the support staff are equally great to deal with. Thank you Shannon, we love our new Volvo!
I am a Volvo owner not only because the car itself is safe and luxurious, but mainly because the staff in sales and service have taken such good care of us over the past 17 years. I always know that Kevin in service will be honest about work needed on the car and will check in with me to make sure that my questions are answered. The technicians have always done a great job. My loyalty to Volvo cars is only because of the many people that make up Valentine Volvo.
Buying a car from Valentine Volvo was the easiest and smoothest car buying experience we have ever had. Shannon was outstanding. He was quick to respond to my initial inquiry over the online chat regarding inventory. He had the car we were interested in ready to test drive, after a quick introduction of himself and the car we took it out. Shannon answered any questions we had, helped us pick out a few add ons and gave us a fair price. Shannon was even able to get the car ready for a quick possession which made everyone happy.
Best experience at Valentine Volvo. We recently purchased a XC90 after test driving multiple different brands of SUVs on the market. We are beyond thrilled with our choice based off of multiple things. First and foremost is the Volvo brand. Safe, luxurious, dependable and comfortable. Secondly, the dealership and its choices offered, and thirdly, Shannon. When we first came in, we were paired up with Shannon to help us test drive some vehicles - not once did we ever feel pressured or pushed to purchasing. Not once did it feel like a sleazy sales tactic by any of the employees at Valentine. They stand by their brand and it speaks volumes when you let the product speak for itself. We were that annoying couple that test drove about 5 different models and not once did Shannon come off as annoyed or bothered by all of our questions. He actually was more inclined to help or suggest other options that would work for us. He really suggested we take the cars for a drive and never rushed us through anything. The whole process itself was easy, inviting and transparent. We haven’t had to do any servicing yet and expect the same type of service (not pushy or over-selling) when it comes to that. I appreciate the way Valentine Volvo does its business and look forward to purchasing other future Volvos from here. Thank you for making our experience a very positive one.
I wonder if i could have the option of giving zero stars to valentine volvo. Only sweet talks to the customer won’t be keeping you your customers forever. There has to be strong work ethics and honesty as well. Saturday 17th July 2021 we had appointment for maintenance. We gave good tires and rims and believed that we were in good hands but when we got our vehicle back and 15-20mins later saw tear in our tire and rim that were scratched and called them immediately. But now they blame us for making that happen to our tires which is ridiculous. How can i cut the interior part of my tire and scratch my rim without making the outer part of my tire undamaged? That too in 15 mins of appointment was over. We are asking honesty in your part. Such is the manager Teressa and we got attended by Oscar. We are so unhappy because we paid so big fat bill for maintenance but the place we trusted for maintenance has made our tires and rims worse. What kind of service is this? I am never returning to this place again. Disloyalty is not going to gain anybody anything on my part and Valentine volvo’s part as well. I know we are honest and this has happened when the vehicle was under your super worker’s surveillance. Just be honest and admit it on your part. I wish to talk to the person who is willing to listen not the people I have already talked with and those not willing to listen. Very very unhappy and unsatisfied.
I recently purchased my XC40 from Valentine Volvo. All staffs were super friendly and supportive, I highly recommend looking for Craig if you are planning on buying a Volvo. He is very professional about the cars, and worked hard to find the perfect car for me. Overall, it was a wonderful experience! The whole process was comfortable without being pressured. Thank you Valentine Volvo for providing amazing services!
The service I received In the Valentine Volvo parts department was nothing short of miraculous. I was trying to source a hard to find part for my aging Volvo and the parts dept at Valentine found my part after I tried every other major Volvo dealer in Canada and the US. Five stars isn't enough to show my gratitude to the Valentine Volvo parts dept. Thanks Oscar!
Wonderful buying experience. Not only were their prices competitive, the customer service was top notch. I dealt with Trevor who was professional and courteous and went the extra mile and delivered my vehicle to me, approx 2.5 hrs out of Calgary. Highly recommend this dealership.
My wife and I recently bought an XC60 at Valentine, and it was a terrific experience. I generally hate car dealerships, and their salespeople, but Craig R was hands down the best; his laid back attitude and willingness to allow us to say what we wanted, rather than being told was exactly what we needed. After my experiences with buying cars, my next purchase will be from this man, and this dealership. 5 stars doesn’t begin to express how impressed I was with this entirely non stressful experience.
Friendly staff and service, clean environment. Easy to find and get to location. Cars are available to sit in and check out which is great! I know it is the only Volvo game in town but they seem to still care enough to make the shopping experience enjoyable.
I purchased my Volvo from Valentine Volvo on 2/20/2021. This was my second Volvo XC60, but first purchase from Valentine. I had not been expecting to need a new car, and some unfortunate incident had me looking suddenly for a new one.
I was lucky enough to be paired up with salesperson Craig R. He was so great to deal with. Personable, kind, not pushy at all, and just overall a very pleasant person. Craig did everything he said he would, and made the experience smooth and as enjoyable as buying a new car can be. Craig also ensured that my car was perfect for me at the time of pickup. Yuan was great, and got the me financing I was hoping for. Claudia did a wonderful job with the delivery appointment, and explaining all of the new technology in my car to me. She even reached out the next week to address any questions I might have.
Overall, I had as good of an experience as I could have hoped for. Top notch place and staff. Thank you.
i have been on the hunt for a nice car with my father for a few weeks now, and we had the pleasure to stop at valentine volvo for a brief look at cars last week.although we have not been able to come to a conclusion regarding our purchase, we immediately felt like family once we entered the store. Kate was very welcoming at reception and was available & ensured our needs were met until a salesman was available, unfortunately i do not remember his name but he was great and knowledgeable.it was truly a delight being in this dealership, if good feelings were our priority we would've bought a new car on spot!
I just purchased a new XC60 and the entire experience was fantastic! I never felt any pressure from my very helpful sales rep (Trevor), and all the other staff were very accommodating. The vehicle itself is absolutely amazing and I couldn't be more happy. Highly recommend this dealership!
We were very impressed by the way we were treated at this dealership. Craig offered us multiple opportunities to test drive the vehicle we were hoping to buy. His approach to sales made us feel comfortable, and not once did I feel the pressure to buy. I appreciated the service we received, and I look forward to driving our Volvo!
Had a great buying experience at Valentine Volvo. I highly recommend you visit them if you're in the market for a new vehicle. Justin on the sales team, as well as the rest of the team, were great throughout the whole process!
Can't say enough great things about Valentine Volvo. I am so happy that I made the decision to go with Volvo and Trevor Gunderson was such an amazing sales consultant. He was patient and really listened to what I wanted and needed. He worked with me to get the best deal and went above and beyond what most sales consultants would be willing to do. I am really happy and keep raving about Volvo to my friends and family. I wish I had bought a Volvo sooner.
Valentine Volvo's staff are all warm and welcoming. I must thank Yuan for dealing with the closing and paperwork. Claudia for an excellent delivery experience and taking the time with me to explain everything and to answer all my questions. Last but definitely not least Sara at the front desk thank you for being so nice and jolly.
Thank you again to all the staff at Volvo most especially to Trevor Gunderson for an awesome experience.
Went to Valentine Volvo to check out their XC40 that we have in mind to most likely buy on October 10th. Johnston C.was our assigned sales guy. He is friendly, amiable and discussed with us the details of the vehicle that we were interested in. We had a wonderful experience dealing with Johnston. His service is a step ahead of the game, he made us feel like a long time friend, really personal without being pushy and I like that in a customer service perspective. Way to go, J! The moment we stepped in the dealership, we were courteously greeted by the ladies in the reception that led us of course, to Johnston. We went back again the following weekend to finalize our purchase and Yuan was a thumbs up to deal with. (2 thumbs up) This is my first ever Volvo car and a shoutout to Claudia, our delivery specialist who was very patient and really helpful in showing to us the endless gadgets of the car. It's a beauty in itself. Thank you Valentine Volvo for the wonderful experience we had with your team!
My wife and I recently leased an XC60, my first ever Volvo. A key factor in this decision and moving from our previous lessor of over 12 years was the excellent and professional service provided by Craig and Yuan. Craig provided us with all the information in a courteous and professional manner and always returned our calls promptly. Yuan was very patient in dealing with the buyout of our previous lease (not from Valentine). Overall a very professional service from this team who I have no hesitation in recommending.
Hello! I wanted to take a minute to thank Valentine Volvo, specifically Savannah Pearce and Rebecca Kotyk. The entire experience was flawless and the team at Volvo is fantastic; however, these two ladies made the process fun and enjoyable and went out of their way to make us feel welcome and our business wanted. I would not hesitate in the slightest to recommend Valentine and their fabulous employees to assist you with your purchase. They will ensure that you are happy and drive away as part of the family. Job well done ladies and gentlemen! We are in love with our new ride and the services that you provide. Your professionalism and warmth were very much appreciated! We're lifers now:) Sincerely, Dorianne.
