Great new car buying experience! I visited several dealerships prior to my purchase and they simply can't compete with Sloan's knowledge, attention and service. The final price for my I visited several dealerships prior to my purchase and they simply can't compete with Sloan's knowledge, attention and service. The final price for my car could not be equaled anywhere else. My sales associate, Toan, was highly competent and considerate of where I was in the buying process. No pressure, just very informative! Managers, Dave and Steve listened to me and worked with me. Excellent experience! More

We reside in the suburbs, where public transportation is not easily accessible and my husband works in New York. He drives 25 miles (30 minutes) to the train station from our home in order to get to a transportation hub. We purchased the vehicle from Sloane and not from a personal seller because we wanted to go with a well known dealer which had a good reputation and in the event of any issues, we were under the impression they would back up the quality of their vehicle. We purchased the vehicle they Sloane because we needed a reliable and safe car so we decided to go with a Subaru because of the safety ratings for our family of five. > > There was an expectation of customer service and satisfaction to be held on the dealer that was not properly dealt with from the onset of our issues. We felt after the car was purchased, all and every thing was pushed around and customer expectations were not met. > > We purchased the 2010 Subaru right before Christmas and issues arose shortly thereafter, but due to scheduling conflicts, holidays with family, and prior engagements planned, we were unable to take the car in immediately until well after New Year’s to Sloane. > > My husband had to take time off of work to take the car into Sloane to have the car diagnosed by Sloan; however, they were unable to diagnose the issue nor to even make an attempt at duplicating the issue and immediately sent us to a Subaru dealer. It was firmly specified that the specific issue was occurring while driving on the highway over 45 miles per hour and the Sloane Service technician did not even make the effort nor attempt to duplicate the conditions we specified over the phone prior to making our trip over an hour away to have the vehicle diagnosed. > > Their reason being was because there were no highways for the tech to drive speeds up to 45-55 MPH by their location in order to duplicate that issue. Again, we specified prior to scheduling an appointment that it occurred on a highway environment over a certain speed. It already was frustrating as we had to plan ahead for this trip, took time off work, made arrangements for the family, and wasted practically an entire day of driving, tolls, gas, let alone useless time spent waiting to be seen, only to pass the buck along. > > At the time it was understandable because Sloane mostly serviced Toyotas and we would prefer to have a manufacture mechanic make the diagnosis; however, it could be seen how easily Sloane seems to avoid responsibility and the onset of passing it on. > > We should at least have someone contact us and offer a full refund. This car is not safe for my family period. To date no one at Sloane has reached out to address our concerns and the message is, we don’t care. Sale is made. Thank you, we will not be coming again nor referring our friends, family, neighbors, and anyone that wishes to purchase a vehicle. > > Long story shorter, we ultimately got the transmission replaced; however, just our luck another problem arose and the car was thrusting and jerking, stalling and so on. We didn’t even drive it back to the Subaru dealer to fix it, we towed it. Sloane did at the very least of being decent, chopped in for the towing but not 100% of it. > > Ultimately, the diagnosis was to have a part replaced (body valve or valve body) and the warantee company refused to do so for their reasons, which is probably a $1,200 part. Upon picking up the vehicle, the service people made us sign a waiver that they do not recommend driving the vehicle without replacing the part as they do not want to be responsible. Therefore we were risking ourselves and my family potentially...Sloane stood by that decision not to assist nor follow up with us after we contacted them. > > Side note: My kids were in the car and I have posted the video on their Facebook of how the car was thrusting — my 4 year old is scared of the car and will not get back in it. She’s a smart girl and let’s hope someone will own up to this for the long haul and fix this. I am shocked and surprised at what determined the warantee company to allow us to drive a vehicle deemed unsafe to drive. More

A Concern Taken Care Of For the past three years I have been with Sloan Toyota of Philadelphia. I leased a car, and then when the lease was up I returned the lease and bought For the past three years I have been with Sloan Toyota of Philadelphia. I leased a car, and then when the lease was up I returned the lease and bought a new car. I was concerned about the process because car-buying is usually a difficult and time-consuming one. However, they took care of me throughout the whole process and made the process of trading in the lease and transferring to a new car very smooth. They spelled out all the fees very explicitly. Steve Barsky, their general sales manager, was responsive and supportive throughout the transfer process. Finally, I recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a great lease, a great car-buying experience, or a good quality car. More

I have poor to fair credit so I went in with low expectations. Somehow Steve Barsky worked some magic and I drove out in a brand new truck, nicer than I expected with payments lower than my budget going in. You better believe I will be bringing back everybody I know that's in the market for a new or used vehicle. More
