I was visiting Rhinebeck from out of town when my battery died. I got a jump and brought the car to Ruge's on a busy day and without an appointment to get a new battery. They tested the battery and found out died. I got a jump and brought the car to Ruge's on a busy day and without an appointment to get a new battery. They tested the battery and found out it was fine - we somehow had kicked the cargo light on while removing luggage and drained it ourselves. They got us on the road again and didn't charge us a thing for the visit. They could easily have sold me a battery or they could have charged for the service visit. They showed a lot of integrity.

Every visit here shows me more of a great operation. My most recent trip here for a problem with the A/C, they determined the compressor needed to be replaced then said it was covered under my extended My most recent trip here for a problem with the A/C, they determined the compressor needed to be replaced then said it was covered under my extended coverage warranty. The only charge was for a worn serpentine belt and the labor to do that work. $141. the A/C replacement would have cost me over $1,000. Needless to say, I'm delighted. More

I came in for a routine transmission service because it seemed my transmission was becoming louder overtime. Leo the lead mechanic gave it a test drive and said the transmission was slipping. I have never seemed my transmission was becoming louder overtime. Leo the lead mechanic gave it a test drive and said the transmission was slipping. I have never experienced this before and had no other issues but the louder than normal sound coming from the transmission. I was told by Leo that I needed a new transmission which I was quoted over $7000. He would not even perform a basic transmission service or check fluids. Very dissatisfied with the service here. And could not talk to a mechanic only the nice lady at the reception desk. I cannot trust this type of service it seems they just want to sell me a new vehicle. More

The team at Ruges Subaru is probably the most honest people around. I have purchased 3 Subaru's from Sam who is absolutely wonderful to work with. The service department is by far the most pleasant, h people around. I have purchased 3 Subaru's from Sam who is absolutely wonderful to work with.

I would recommend everyone who is looking to buy or service their Subaru to this dealership. Thanks again to all the great people at Ruge's!! More

I have had bad experiences with the SERVICE Department, I will NEVER EVER bring my car back to RUGE'S in Rhinebeck again or BUY another Subaru from this dealership. they treat women like they have no brains. will NEVER EVER bring my car back to RUGE'S in Rhinebeck again or BUY another Subaru from this dealership. they treat women like they have no brains. when I recently went there, the two MEN in the service department. were so RUDE and Nasty to me, I can't begin to tell you how I felt. I even called Subaru Head quarters. probably to no avail. .The first service man said in the very least of amount of words he could possibly say to me was so nasty. my husband said "he's a mechanic" I will not ever "suck up" to any Male so they will be NICE to ME!!

Stopped in on a whim after getting stood up at another dealership. My daughter was looking for a newer more reliable vehicle. We were assisted by Chris Petersen, who made this one of our easiest car purch dealership. My daughter was looking for a newer more reliable vehicle. We were assisted by Chris Petersen, who made this one of our easiest car purchases my wife and I had would ever experienced and a great first time dealership interaction for my daughter. Had a small unfortunate issue with the vehicle at delivery that was unexpected, however it was addressed and worked on first thing in the morning. Again Chris and the rest of the crew were excellent and professional getting us the best deal possible. If looking for a Subaru you can’t beat Ruges. More

B and S (bait and switch) Contrary to what I was told on the phone, they offered me a lower trade in value on my 2007 Volvo: initially I was told I would receive $3,000 - but w Contrary to what I was told on the phone, they offered me a lower trade in value on my 2007 Volvo: initially I was told I would receive $3,000 - but when I got there, they told me $2,500 due the scratch on door WHICH I HAD DISCLOSED TO THEM BEFOREHAND. Although, during our discussions, I told them the car was in "Very Good" condition, apparently the salesman told the manager it was in "immaculate" condition. I had to laugh and asked if they had ever seen a 13-year old car in "immaculate" condition - unless it had been kept in a museum. The funniest part was that, after a 10 minute call to re-confirm numbers, I immediately drove to another dealer I had been speaking with (Brewster Subaru) who offered me $3,500!! Two hours after that , I drove our new Subaru off the lot (of the Brewster dealer) - not only with a better trade-in value, but WITH A LOWER MONTHLY PAYMENT ON MY LEASE!!! Stay away from dishonest dealers who attempt the Bait and Switch - and go to Brewster Subaru (who were very nice and did exactly what they said they would do). More

Sneaky and underhanded sales tactics with smoke and mirrors, throwing numbers and charts to try to confuse over email then lying about it when called out. Avoid a sales rep named Christopher Petersen. mirrors, throwing numbers and charts to try to confuse over email then lying about it when called out. Avoid a sales rep named Christopher Petersen. Felt like I was dealing with a snake oil salesman. THE definition of a manipulative car dealer. More
