Before joining the New Motors team he sold and delivered hand crafted hardwood furniture at The Amish Buggy. He chose to start a career selling Subarus because of the great experience his wife had buying a 2009 Legacy at New Motors. In his free time you can find him out on a golf course chasing around the little white ball, riding his bicycle around Presque Isle state park or working in his garden planting seeds and pulling weeds.

New Motors Subaru in Erie is a fabulous dealership. I have purchased four cars over the years from them including this newest one, and been extremely pleased with all my purchases. This time Stephen I have purchased four cars over the years from them including this newest one, and been extremely pleased with all my purchases. This time Stephen Kolenda took a great deal of time helping me since I had to ensure this vehicle would be suitable to drive my 88 year old mother and fit her walker in the trunk correctly. He took time with my mother and me and I could not have been more pleased. I always purchase Subaru for safety as well as their great service. More
