WHO WE ARE

Swickard Auto Group is a hospitality company that happens to sell and service cars. We believe the best guest experiences start with the best employee experiences. That's why we've grown to 40+ rooftops across the West Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii while maintaining a culture built on one simple idea: do right by people, every time.

At BMW of Lynnwood, every vehicle that leaves our operation reflects the standard of the brand -- and the Detail Technician is the person who makes that standard visible. Whether it's a new BMW headed to a first-time owner or a service vehicle being returned to a loyal guest, the presentation has to be right every time.
