Pine Belt Subaru...A Different Way to Subaru!
Treatment:
Webster's Dictionary defines the word "Treatment" as:
1a: the act or manner or an instance of treating someone or something :handling, usage
the star requires careful treatment
b: the techniques or actions customarily applied in a specified situation
2a: a substance or technique used in treating
Here at Pine Belt, we agree with this definition. When our Founder Leon Sickel first opened Pine Belt in 1937, he had one very clear vision: "I always want to treat people the way I would want to be treated, with respect and honesty while never forgetting to give everyone the best price possible that is always lower than our competition." Eighty years later, Pine Belt in Lakewood remains welded to the vision of our Founder, and proudly remains committed to making sure everyone who buys from Pine Belt receives our very best in Treatment.

I had a very disappointing experience at Pine Belt Subaru. Before visiting the dealership, I had a detailed email thread with one of their sales representatives clearly outlining all portions of th Subaru. Before visiting the dealership, I had a detailed email thread with one of their sales representatives clearly outlining all portions of the deal. We went back and forth to make sure everything was transparent and agreed upon. Based on that communication, I scheduled an appointment and came in expecting a smooth process. When I arrived, I was told the sales rep I had been working with wasn’t there — despite the fact that I had a confirmed appointment. Even worse, no one at the dealership seemed to know anything about my appointment or the deal we had discussed. Another representative stepped in and kept me there for about an hour asking a series of irrelevant questions, even though all the details had already been negotiated via email. After waiting an additional 45 minutes, he returned with information miraculously found and informed me that the deal was “not final” and would now cost an additional $38 per month. I do not like to feel manipulated. I would have appreciated a straightforward answer from the beginning — even if that meant being told there was a mistake and the dealership could not accommodate the deal. Instead, another hour of my time was wasted. After all of that, I was simply told there was nothing they could do and “thank you for stopping by.” This experience felt disorganized, unprofessional, and misleading. If you negotiate terms ahead of time, don’t expect them to be honored when you arrive. I would not recommend Pine Belt Subaru based on my experience. Ilya B. More

My 2016 Crosstrek was and probably is still a great car. I always brought it to PineBelt for service and never had a problem with it except for a starting problem that one of the service managers picked up I always brought it to PineBelt for service and never had a problem with it except for a starting problem that one of the service managers picked up on a test drive with me. I was the problem! The staff all seem to know what they're doing. I knew I was going to stick with Pine Belt when I decided to get a more fuel responsible car. So far I'm enjoying every learning moment with my new Hybrid Crosstrek! More
