TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS PLEASE. I pride myself on my impartiality so the review you are about to read will highlight the positive and negative experience I had with this dealership. I pride myself on my impartiality so the review you are about to read will highlight the positive and negative experience I had with this dealership. After spending about 18 months searching, and saving, for the vehicle I wanted, I found that Garavel Subaru had the vehicle I wanted. I was extremely apprehensive as I am weary of the stereotypical car salesman out to get the best of me. I was in contact with Dave Novik via e-mail and he did a great job of easing my fear. He was straightforward and friendly. After a few e-mails we agreed upon a sales price. He adapted to my busy schedule and came in on his day off to delivery my vehicle. The dealership is easy to get to but parking is a nightmare. Be careful where you park or your risk being towed. After a brief test drive, we sat down to sign the paperwork. The finance guy was very pushy. I told him at the outset that I wasn't interested in any extended warranties etc. He told me that I had endure his sales pitch..( I thought I was the customer here). My salesman also took me on a tour of the dealership. It soaked up time I didn't have but I understand that its kind of a "welcome to our family" thing so I'm ok with that. The overall delivery process was a bit long and I think my salesman keyed in on that and kept his explanation of the vehicle features to an appropriate length. Here's where the experience becomes less than satisfying. Prior to delivery, I e-mailed my sales representative on two separate instances asking telling him I didn't want any front license plate on my vehicle. I requested this because I didn't want any extra holes in my front bumper. During the delivery process, I went to the restroom and upon returning I saw that a license plate had been screwed into the front bumper of my brand new $30,000 vehicle. It wasn't the end of the world. After taking delivery, Dave e-mailed me for a follow up and I told him about the holes in the front bumper. He admitted that he had made a mistake and offered to send me his commission check to offset the repair. I e-mailed back and requested that he check with his peers at the dealership to determine if there was a solution that didn't entail him forfeiting his commission check. I never heard back from him. I followed up a few times with e-mails and phone calls but got nothing in return. I was disappointed that customer service had ended at the sale of the vehicle. I was disappointed that despite being offered assistance in resolution, I never heard back from the dealership. After posting my review on Dealerrater.com, I suddenly heard back from the sales rep and also the sales manager. Apparently they had never received my e-mails. I corresponded with them via e-mail a few times and, miraculously, there were no issues with them receiving my messages. The sales manager I spoke with feigned sincerity and concern and stated that he would send me the proceeds of my sales representatives commission. Apparently being a sales representative isn't very lucrative and all commissions are pinned at exactly $100.00 because that's all they all they said they would send me. So for $100.00 I now get to stare at two holes in the bumper of my $30,000 car that I asked not be put there on two separate occasions. I will stop short before saying this is a stereotypical car dealer looking to get the best of you. I will say that this dealership has a bit of an integrity issue. Not sure if this will persuade or dissuade you from purchasing a vehicle from this dealership but at the very least makes you a more aware buyer. More
