  I am a new service customer to Ruges Subaru this was my second visit where I had a NYS Inspection and oil change performed. I was very impressed with their state of the art service center and all the excellent technology that they have to offer. My very kind and knowledgeable Service Advisor name is JT he had assisted me on my first visit and I asked if he could help me this time too and he was more than happy to…

  oblige. He is great! Kept me updated on my service and fully explained what the technician recommended as well as the prices. Thank you so very much JT your kindness and knowledge is so greatly appreciated! My visit went great very happy with my service at Ruges Subaru.

  Response from the owner · June 8, 2026: Thanks, Debbie! We appreciate your kind words and your business!

  At Ruge’s Subaru, the entire service experience was excellent. The coordination between the towing company and the service department when the car arrived was handled very smoothly. They helped with the maintenance work, replacement of the missing oil cap, engine bay cleaning, and other service items professionally and efficiently. Mr. Joseph provided outstanding customer service from beginning to end. He was…

  attentive, patient, friendly, and very thorough. The text message communication system was especially thoughtful and convenient. He always answered our questions patiently and never seemed bothered no matter how many questions we had. We picked up the car on the third day, the lady who arranged the loaner vehicle for us was also extremely warm and helpful. The whole team truly made us feel welcome and cared for, almost like being at home. The entire process was convenient, efficient, and stress-free. We are very satisfied with the service and truly appreciate the professionalism and kindness of everyone at Ruge’s Subaru Roland

  Response from the owner · May 30, 2026: You're welcome, Roland! Glad we could be of service!

  Sean has helped me multiple times and is courteous and knowledgeable. Although they text all work details, Sean still called and explained the work they were proposing. The facility is state of the art. Most impressively, they found a recall that another Subaru place in CT said they installed but didn’t.

  Response from the owner · July 28, 2026: Thanks, Jason! We appreciate your kind words and glad we could be of service!

  Every time I come to Ruge’s new service center in Rhinebeck, it’s a painless experience. They have a comfortable waiting area with amenities and a shuttle into the village. Staff are always super friendly and helpful. Service is expensive, but no more than any other dealer or major service center, so if I’m paying for the convenience of someone else doing my oil changes, I’d rather it be Ruge’s. I’ve never had a bad…

  experience and I’ll definitely be back!

  Response from the owner · April 20, 2026: Thanks, Brenden! We appreciate your kind words and your business!

  Took my car up there for a recall, oil change and inspection. They called and sent a bunch of pictures, rubber around transmission had a small leak and I approved the 3,000 repair price. Went to pick up car, got home wipers weren’t working, had to go back up bc wrong size blades were put on causing wipers to get stuck. Next time drove car oil light came on, oil was low on dip stick. Took car back up there and have…

  multiple recorded phone calls saying it would be free to fix. They now want 170 to diagnose car. Oil light never came on in all the years I’ve had this car never had this burning smell either. Left them a perfectly fine car, gave them 3 grand and have been unable to drive my car the past 4 weeks. Sick to my stomach that they couldn’t even put the correct wiper blades on the car so I’m sure they put incorrect fluid levels or damaged something because now car smells like burning in front end, since they did all that work. This is not how you treat people in life. Be accountable, do better. Treat people how you expect to be treated. Front desk assistant could not explain anything to me, thought I was there to fix the recall they already did because their computer had it marked as never done???? Was it actually done? No communication between staff and even worse communication with customers. Untrustworthy management. Attitude was they don’t care to explain anything, leaving me out 3 grand and gave me back an unsafe non working car. It’s an absolute nightmare. You couldn’t even put the correct wipers on the car and expect me to just believe you didn’t damage my transmission! I have had no car for a month now! And Subaru could care less because they already got their 3 grand. The more people I talk to, I now know this does happen at dealerships, big mistakes, unfortunately Rugees doesn’t care that they gave me back a car that is now unsafe to drive. Once again do better and never treat another person like this.
