The health, well-being, and safety of Rafferty Subaru's staff, visitors, and guests is the most important thing to our family. Over the past couple of weeks, my team and I have been closely monitoring the spread of COVID-19 across the Country and, more specifically, throughout Pennsylvania and throughout neighboring counties in which we operate. While much is still unknown about the future of this virus, I am hopeful that we will soon see an end to its wide-reaching and devastating effects.
As health officials in Pennsylvania and around
the globe work tirelessly to slow the velocity of this virus, I wanted to share
with you some of the steps Rafferty Subaru is taking to ensure that staff and
visitors at our store remain safe during operation.
Our Sales Department is open for online car buying!
From trade-in value to financing, the entire car buying process can be done online at Rafferty Subaru. We've outlined the entire online car buying process here
Service and Parts Departments
In addition to actively monitoring the guidance
provided by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World
Health Organization (WHO), our store has:
Developed a non-contact drop off/pick up process.
o Utilize our nighttime drop box so you never need to come in the store
o Our advisors will call/text/email with updates along the way
o Pay your bill over the phone
o Your car will be outside locked, sanitized and awaiting your pickup without ever stepping foot in the building.
Loaner vehicles are available.
o We do require a signature for these, but of course, we are abiding by all CDC requirements and suggestions.
Posted relevant signage throughout the store which provides information about COVID-19, and critical ways to avoid being exposed to it.
Increased the number of hand sanitizer stations throughout the store, and relentlessly encouraging members of our team to wash their hands throughout the day.
Purchased additional cleaning supplies whereby every member of the Rafferty Subaru team can assist in cleaning and sanitizing high-contact areas throughout the day.
Instructed our janitorial team to ensure that cleaning and sanitizing all high-contact areas, such as door handles, desktops, railings, doorknobs, etc., on a nightly basis.
Instructed all employees who are exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 to visit a doctor immediately and will be compensated for any time missed due to this pandemic.
Any employee uncomfortable with coming to work at this time has been instructed to stay home without consequence.

Finally, I'd like to offer one parting thought:
I know that the uncertainty associated with the spread of COVID-19 is cause for
great concern. However, I ask everyone, my team and customers alike, to face
this unique challenge with great poise and courage. Let us stand united to
