Hello, Not Happy...thank you for taking the time to leave feedback on your experience. You'll have to forgive me for not being able to figure out who you are given the name and description of your issue, but you didn't give me a lot to go on, so I'll have to respond less specifically than I'd like to! We do have security cameras throughout our property, both inside of our facilities and out. Depending on the type of damage we're looking for (door ding, scratch, etc.), the security camera recordings can be inconclusive. In such a case, we'll review the recording and follow a car from the time a customer drives it onto our property, through the service process, until the customer drives it away, looking for a cause of the damage that a customer has brought to our attention (many times, parking lot damage is caused by other customers!). In this case, it sounds like Bob did not agree that the damage occurred while your car was in our care but went ahead and fixed it anyway. That being the case, I'm guessing you're someone we see regularly, as Bob has been known to do that for our good customers on a goodwill basis. Finally, I'd like to address the most disturbing part of your comments. Your statement that "Bob is a liar & not to be trusted" is very serious. His track record over the past 38 years at Liberty Subaru would indicate otherwise. Many of our repeat customers are repeat customers because of Bob and his Service Department...if your characterization were accurate, this would never be the case. I feel badly that you disagreed with Bob's assessment of your claim and his goodwill repair of the damage you brought to his attention, but to defame him (or anyone) from behind the curtain of anonymity that the internet provides is unacceptable. I see you also gave Ed (who presumably sold you your car) and Tom (who presumably prepared your paperwork when you purchased your car) poor ratings. Your review doesn't make clear how they're connected at all with the situation described in your review, or why they deserve low marks. In this case, it's clear that we fell short of your expectations, and I feel badly about that...we take these reviews very seriously. Each time we fail to meet a customer's expectations, we use it as an opportunity to grow, but that only happens when customers take the time to let us know, so I appreciate the fact that you took the time to do so.

You will never get a loaner unless you wait two weeks They advertise giving loaners cars but in reality, there is always a two-week wait for a loaners cars as the supply is not matched to demand. So the c More

Hello, Lloyd...thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. As you can imagine, our fleet of free loaner cars is very popular with our customers, and we do recommend that loaners be reserved when you make your appointment. When our service department is especially busy, it's possible that our loaner cars are booked a few days out. In such a case, we're happy to provide free local shuttle service to and from work, the mall, etc., and in case of an emergency, Subaru will often cover the cost of a rental vehicle. It sounds like you caught us during an especially busy period, and I apologize for the fact that we were unable to meet your expectations in this case. Rick De Silva, Jr. General Manager Liberty Subaru
