TOP CUSTOMER SERVICE! We are a Subaru family for life. It is very uncommon the have issues with these vehicles and Subaru knows this. They make sure preserve the quality of their vehicles. I have owned every model.
I called Subaru in hopes to go in and look at a vehicle that I had found online and reached Allan Rivas Jr. Allan was very kind, courteous, knowledgeable and helpful. He was able to assist my husband and I with the purchase of a vehicle and I am so glad that our paths crossed. If youre in the market for a vehicle, I highly recommend that you go see Allan Rivas Jr at Gainesville Subaru.
Everyone in sales was amazing! Anthony was great. He was very nice and funny! The manager Ronnie was also friendly and went above and beyond what he had to do. As a first time buyer I would definitely would recommend this to anyone else.
The BEST service experience I have ever had. REQUEST TERRY FOR YOUR JOB! He is the absolute bomb. He took me back to the shop to explain everything that was wrong with my car and was super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. Misty, my service writer was great and super helpful it was worth every penny that It cost me to get my baby back on the road & running healthy without leaks or issues. My 2006 STI had a major overhaul. and it runs like a dream now. Timing belt, headgasket, oil seepage and boost leaks from vacuum hoses and my sloppy shifter were all addressed and taken care of and they gave me a great deal on parts and labor. Considering how this car was cobbled together from the previous owner the labor costs and parts were well worth it for someone who knows what theyre doing to start back at a baseline and ACTUAL SUBARU PARTS. I always wanted a great running and healthy hawkeye STI and now I have one. I will bring back my car for any future work needed. RUNS SWEET! See you on the streets Gainesville! :D THANK YOU!!!! ASK FOR TERRY 100% (My Subaru Mechanic/Shop Foreman) MISTY(Service Advisor) AND ANGEL(My Parts Guy)!
I and my husband went to Subaru of Gainesville bought the outback touring car. We very happy and exited about car. Anthony was very great and took his time with us. Really appreciate it!
So far, so good. Got buyers order, waiting on car to come. Sharp young salesman & manager have done well in addressing my needs & desires. When financing is done Im ready to get to the finish line.
I cannot say enough good things about their service department (Terry and also Misty). Just fantastic. The inspection of my car was professional, thorough, and helpful in making decisions moving forward. Thank you so much for taking the time with me and for going the extra mile. I would not hesitate to go back.
I’m currently shopping for a new car and have heard great things about different Subaru Gainesville and their cars so I took some time out of my day to check some of them out. Upon me getting out my car and getting ready to walk around the lot I was greeted by Allan Rivas. I immediately told him I was browsing and not purchasing a car right away but that didn’t phase him and he continued to help me and answer all my questions and even offered me test drives. The quality of service and knowledge I received from Allan were top notch and I’ve never been treated with this type of customer service at a dealership before. At no time did I feel like I was being pressured to purchase a car and make a deal right there and now. I highly recommend if your in the market for a new vehicle go see Allan at Subaru of Gainesville as there is no doubt you will be treated with exceptional customer service and knowledge.
I bought a used Expedition I love it, hassle free and quick, they know what they were doing, and no hiding fees, I was so shocked on how others try to add every little thing to make more money but they did not,, Thank you so much for a stress free buying experience,,
I cant believe I am actually saying this, but I enjoyed my visit, meeting Greg Cox the salesman and learning about Subaru options. Although their inventory is low, they can reserve a new one for me within a reasonable time. No pressure, just facts & information. I will be back.
Allan rivass is the best! He helped me out when I was looking for a car. Real professional and polite young man! Plus he knows his facts!
We purchased a used VW Beetle Convertible online from Greg Cox at Subaru of Gainesville, FL. We live in Arizona and could not check it out, test drive, etc. Greg sent us pictures, kept us updated as we went through the process and expedited all the paperwork. He also arranged to have the car shipped to us. We put a LOT of trust in the dealer and especially Greg - and they went the extra mile. The Beetle was exactly as they described and we are totally satisfied with the process - and especially with our Beetle Convertible.
Great service department, Emily was professional, The facility is clean and modern, I will be bringing my car back there
I recently traded my car for the new 2022 Outback. George Bush was my salesman. He went above and beyond for me. I would definitely recommend him and everyone at Subaru in Gainesville for your car needs!!!!! Love my new Outback!
Everything went smoothly when I purchased my Outback. I then had my inservice for the car by Abby and it was informative.
Bob, a salesman, is always courteous, professional and available for questions and tutorials. Bob sold us a Forester, which has been an awesome car. Love it!
What an awesome dealership! My wife and I recently just bought jeep Grand Cherokee there. They made the whole experience easy and stress free. Mitchell was our sales man and he took great care of us from start to finish. The service department was also fast and accommodated us with a rental car for the weekend when our headlight went out. I will definitely recommend this dealership to friends and will be a future customer again.
Friendly and honest staff provided fantastic service. Mitchell was great Rod was helpful. I highly recommend them.
It was great I never been treated so good so professional full of information and I have bought at least five cars before but I never been treated as well as I was at Subaru of Gainesville it was great my sell person was outstanding his name is Allen he did a very very good job I was impressed with him all day long a person full of information it was great I never been treated so well before at a car dealership it was great fantastic I will be back to buy my next vehicle . Allan deserves 101 stars for his professional service
Excellent service for our Subaru, with a quick repair and bonus recall completed in one business day. I was helped by Misty, who was incredibly attentive and kept me informed every step of the way. She was wonderful! Best experience I have had at a dealership like this, and Ill be happy to come back when its next needed.
Go see Allan. Honest, Courteous and overall nice young man. No pressure when buying from him.
The team at this dealership provides the best customer service Ive ever experienced at a dealership. I bought a used Forester here from Mitchell in November 2020 and returned many times for free carwashes and an oil change. Just today, Tracy got me in last minute for a quick car wash; he and Christian did a great job even though they were busy. Folks are always friendly. Its good vibes here and that goes a long way when it comes to dealing with cars.
Mitch was amazing with the details of my new car purchase. My first Subaru and I love it.
Been doing business here since I bought a Subaru about a year ago. The customer service is phenomenal. They quote exactly what they are going to do and are very helpful if you have any questions. Tracy the service manager is top notch, he always helps me do whats best for me and my car. I would recommend this be your go to place for subaru, or any car service.
I have nothing but good things to say about Subaru of gainesville. They made the process of acquiring my new crosstrek so easy and we’re not pushy at all. Christine Gilman helped me out and she was so friendly and knowledgeable about each car. There is a reason why everyone loves their Subaru. Their service and way they treat their customers shines through! 100% recommend.
We brought a our car in for service and Missy did an outstanding job taking care of us. We arrived a gentleman came out to see us and opened the door for us. We highly recommend their service department!!!
Subaru of Gainesville made me feel so calm and relaxed buying my first car from a dealership. I was pretty clueless and had little to work with, but they diligently worked to find me an option I felt comfortable with. Couldnt recommend highly enough! Anthony treated me like a high end customer!
Great bunch of people, promises kept, great price and no last minute surprises. Easy to do business with, resolved any questions in the customers favor. Bob Hendrickson was responsive and answered all our questions. Why did we drive 2.5 hours to a car dealer? For the hard to find Forester we wanted, at the price we wanted, at the time we wanted it, from a dealership that removed any obstacles. In over 55 years driving, this was my most pleasant car buying experience.
Couldnt recommend this place to buy a car. Tried to make a lot of money off us and would not budge off a car that was priced well above Kelly blue book retail. I would look elsewhere unless you like paying a lot more than what a car is worth.
So excited and happy with our new Subaru crosstrek. Our salesman George was very good and was very helpful and personable. Everyone was great from manager to service person.
According to my insurance company I have owned 42 cars. This was my best car buying experience ever. Noah D. handled the transaction like a champ. I bought the car over the phone and Noah delivered it to me in Tampa. Signed the paperwork before my coffee got cold. Simply an awesome experience!
Went with my daughter who was looking for a CrossTrek. The sales guy doesnt work on commission so the test drive and talking didnt involve getting shoved into a cube waiting for the sales managers tired intimidation tactics. There was no pressure which was nice for a change. They didnt have much available inventory, which cant be held against them...there arent many Subarus available anywhere.
Truly made us feel like family
Even though I ended up not buying a Subaru, my experience here was entirely positive.George Bush was the sales representative that assisted us, and I recommend him without reservation. He was knowledgeable, courteous and most importantly to me forthcoming.
I bought my first brand new car from here and they were great. Explained everything, went through the features of the car, and gave me a great deal. I would highly recommend them!!
Tracy James is the best service advisor that Ive dealt with in years. Knows how to make a customer feel appreciated.
Nice dealership with friendly staff. Emily our Service Advisor was very helpful. The car wash at the end of service is a very nice touch.
Best dealership ever! See Bob Hendrickson if you go there!
I was in the market for a reliable used car for my daughter within my budget, and I found one at one of the Duval dealerships affiliated with Subaru of Gainesville. I called Noah Daigen, and he made the deal happen. He was honest, respectful, and gave me an excellent deal (I had been looking for months). He was true to his word throughout the entire process. He had the vehicle on the lot in Gainesville for me to test drive within a day, and the vehicle exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Noah Daigen at Subaru of Gainesville if you are in the market for a new/used car. You wont be disappointed!
My first ever 5 star rating for a dealership. The service was top shelf. Emily was very personable and professional the entire process of having my car serviced . Kept me in the loop, time wise as to what was happening behind the scenes. Everyone I came in contact with was pleasant and helpful. I was also happy to have a choice of waiting inside or outside since Im cold natured. I will no doubt be returning to this dealership for everything my Subaru Outback needs.
This has to be the worst parts department Ive ever dealt with in my entire life. One person sitting at the counter that apparently does nothing and if you need to speak with somebody she tells you to ring the bell. The person whos not the manager apparently knows nothing and doesnt know where any parts are. They cant find your order they cant figure out where your stuff is. Apparently theres only one person in the whole building that knows where the ordered online and shipped to store parts are. I will never darken the door of their parts department ever again. Ill either order online or go to Jacksonville.
I had a nail in my tire and I totally did a very poor plug job and felt stupid. The always-cordial technicians and very accommodating service advisor helped me at short-notice and did a perfect job. Yeah, it might be just a little more at the dealership, but Ive never had a bad experience with this group. I highly recommend them.
Terry was the absolute man. The service staff at this location makes you feel like family. And the music they play at the service desk is top notch! Keep up the good work Subaru of Gainesville.
Visited this dealership yesterday. Although I didnt end up purchasinga vehicle there, I was so impressed with the salesman that worked withme. Hoah Daigen was very professional and answered all my questionswithout hesitation. You couldnt go wrong dealing with him. He was SUPER.
Everyone was wonderful! Super experience here!
Got my car serviced recently. Excellent Covid related precautions. Minimal contact. No paperwork. All records electronic.
My wife needed a new car because she finally needed a change from her 2010 ford focus. We went with subaru because of their quality and the trade in was competitive. Greg and Ronnie were great, and we are very happy with our purchase.
Traveling from Sarasota, Fl to Savannah my Outback’s check engine light came on. We immediately found the closest Suburu dealer and feel so fortunate that it was this one. Mitsy and the entire staff were helpful, friendly, and had us out the door and on our way in no time with the problem fixed. I would highly recommend Suburu of Gainesville.
Quick and helpful, able to get me into an appointment same day and work on alot of warranty issues for me as well. Brought me home and picked me up so I wouldnt have to wait at dealership. All in all great, fast, and friendly service.
Great salesman. Answered all my questions
Just bought a new 2017 Subaru BRZ Series. Yellow from Steven M. He and the staff are willing to work with the customer to make sure everyone is happy. Even though the sales manager, Jimmy, is quiet, he made the experience pleasant by adding equipment to the car that I wanted. One item they paid for the rest were at cost.Sean was great and helpful when my wife purchased a used Outback a few months ago. Sean made sure that the trade-in price for her old car was fair.Service Dept: first of all, sometimes I show up there too much for random parts. Everyone in the service department is like family. Wes, gave my 3 year old a free Subaru hat. Car is either finished on time or early and I always arrive to a clean car.
Best car buying experience, ever! I have never owned a subaru, never been to this dealer before, first time for both. I have to say this has been the smoothest, most pleasurable experience for me. Mitchell Scaglione was the best sales consultant I have ever worked with in purchasing a car. Very professional, courteous and informative. Even took my call on his day off to answer all my questions and concerns, who does that?? Not your typical car buying experience. He also found the answers I needed and always followed-up with me and never left me hanging. I further worked with Freddy Gonzalez, the sales manager and he was also very considerate of all my needs. I am picky and I question everything and he wanted to make sure my questions were answered and that I was happy with the car I purchased and the deal we made. He was more concerned with making me happy than me purchasing a car I would not be happy with. Most car dealerships and sales managers push cars on you and try to sell you what their needs are to meet their numbers. Not here! They care about their customers and take pride in the professionalism of the clientele they serve. I also had a very pleasant experience with the Finance Manager, Chad Batchelor, at most dealerships finance tries to force you to purchase an additional warranty and add -ons to increase their individual profit and numbers. Chad was professional, courteous and very informative of all the products and never pushy, he explained everything and answered my questions with honesty and made me feel proud of the decision I made with my purchase. I have had so many bad car buying experiences in my life but this by far has redeemed my faith in car dealerships. I walked away with a great deal, my needs met and a good feeling that I, the person mattered, not the car deal to them. This dealership also offers many amazing perks when purchasing unlike other dealerships where you buy the car and thats it, if you come back for service great but if you dont, see ya later. This dealership offers tons of detailed services such as complimentary first service experience, free tire repair for the life of the car not the tire, its nice to know that if I run over a nail, they will repair my tire at no cost. They also provide free diagnostic which can be very costly to learn what the problem is with your car. I also will utilize the free car wash program. I also respect they are closed on Sundays to observe time with their families and honor Gods day of rest. I dont know if that is why they are closed but I am Christian and I feel that is a wonderful quality which also shows in how they treat people. I recommend this car dealership highly to anyone who needs to feel they matter first and not the car deal.
Ive love my Outback from Subaru of Gainesville and have all my service performed there. I wouldnt think of going anywhere else. They are the most chill car dealership, which is perfect.
I had a GREAT experience at Subaru of Gainesville. Noah and the rest of the Preowned Inventory staff really helped me get the car I wanted, at the price I wanted. I highly recommend Subaru of Gainesville.
We bought our new (to us) truck today. Christine handled our purchase. This was the most painless car buying experience weve ever had. We are happy with the deal we got. We wouldnt hesitate to recommend this dealership and Christine in particular.
I made my vehicle selection online as there website is accurate and up-to-date on the models they have in stock. I called a salesperson because I had a trade-in and she quickly sent me a worksheet with trade-in price and new vehicle price. This dealership is now considered a non-negotiating dealership which is perfect for me--Id rather not spend a whole day haggling. So, you pay what there asking and for me, start to finish took about 2 hours. It was a pleasant experience to say the least.
This Picture is of our 3rd and 4th car we bought from Subaru of Gainesville. The best car buying experience bar none!!!! My wife and I are always treated with kindness and respect. If you are looking to buy your next new or used vehicle. I recommend Subaru of Gainesville. The entire team is top notch From the Top Down. From the GM to the Service Department their Sales staff (Bradley Searles). We are looking to buy our son his first car and the only place I will look is Subaru of Gainesville.
A great all around experience.
Always friendly!
Great service department!
Tracy has great customer service and knows how to communicate with prospects. Very nice gentleman. Took great care of my car!!
Knowledgeable and courteous staff helped me change my mind to a Subaru.
Worst experience ever!!! My wife and I are from KY. I’m deployed, my wife drove all the way down to the dealership for an agreed upon price. When she got down there they attempted to change the price on her. Thank god she kept all the email traffic. We did end of getting the vehicle and are happy with it. However, my wife again had to go out of her way to resend insurance information multiple times to them.Furthermore, my our county clerk will not release our title work to us because they say we owe tax’s. We paid the tax’s at the dealership!! This has been nothing but a nightmare dealingwith this dealership. We will be contacting the BBB and Subaru Corporate.Update: GM contacted my wife and got the title stuff fix and also refunded an extended warranty. We do appreciate the GM resolving the issue. I do feel the issue should never had gotten to this point. This was more of a culmination of events that caused this. I truly hope no one else has these types of issues but I have faith they will be resolved if they do.
Dealership willing to take care of their most vocal detractors.
The team at Subaru of Gainesville made my car buying experience the best I could of imagined. Teddy and Noah where very professional and extremely nice during the whole buying process. Along with Freddy in sales and Chad in the financial I am very satisfied with their customer service. This dealership I would highly recommend if you are looking to buy a vehicle new or used. Thanks Subaru of Gainesville I appreciate you all.
Great service. Daylight robbery, even when I asked for an itemised receipt
Unfortunately I was unable to purchase a vehicle from Subaru of Gainesville through no fault of their own (personal circumstances got in the way at the last moment). Throughout the buying process they were accommodating and professional, remained great with communication, and were gracious when I was unable to purchase the vehicle they went out of their way to get for me. Would absolutely go back to them in the future for a purchase and to recommend to my friends and family in Gainesville.
The place is spotless. Their used car inventory isnt huge, but the quality is worth it if youre in the market for a used vehicle. Brad is by far the best car salesman Ive ever had the pleasure of working with as well as all of his support system. They were very open and honest with everything they were doing and timely. I would definitely go back.
Best dealer service Ive ever had!! I went for a recall and I was treated like royalty. Misty was extremely helpful and courteous. Like I said Ive never experienced excellent customer service in a dealer even when purchasing a car. I highly recommend Subaru of Gainesville 👍🏽
Best car buying experience Ive ever had. Noah in Sales and Chad in Finance really took care of me.Noah: From the minute I walked in the door, Noah was friendly, helpful and patient. Noah is not your typical salesman, he seems genuine, he really listens and takes the time to make sure you are getting what you want and that youre comfortable. He gave me his personal cell to follow up, never made me feel guilty for checking in and bugging him. He truly made the experience. Hes just a really nice guy. I would send every person I know to him.Chad: I had a great experience with Chad when he assisted my mother in buying her vehicle and then again for mine. He worked with me and consistently came up with options to help me get to a number I was comfortable with. He made signing the papers much less terrifying.I already loved Subaru but SOG made that much more of an impression. Thank you guys!
This concerns the service department only. Noah in sales is wonderful. BEWARE OF SERVICE DEPARTMENT UPSELLING! I took my Outback in for oil change etc service and there were not problems listed on their checklist. A few months later I go in for a recall and come away with a list of necessary repairs for $1250.00!!! This confused me, so I later called my previous service writer and left a message with the person who answered. I never received a return call.
Great sales team. Very friendly and knowledgeable. They make you feel like friend or family NOT a customer. Love my car. Definitely would recommend this place!!
My check engine light came on so I went over to the dealership. As soon as I arrived they were kind and attentive. They were timely and checked the codes on my car to make sure that it was safe for me to drive. They answered all my questions throughly and completely and didnt make me feel like I asked stupid questions like some other car mechanics would!
This dealership is great. The sales & service folks treat you like family. I have bought 4 Outbacks from here. They do not mind you stopping buy to check on if you can afford a car. They will run the numbers with no pressure to buy.
So wonderful. The staff is are genuine and reasonable. Sales woman Christine Gilman was incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and really listened to my needs.
Came in super stressed because my car was having electrical problems to where my windshield whipers weren’t working in the pouring rain. Tracy at the service desk calmed me down and assured me they could take care of the issue for a relatively low price with my warranty. I’m so happy he was able to help me. Thank you Tracy and Subaru team! You’re the best.
Great experience, friendly service
I had such a great experience! One of the best things was that the salespeople aren’t paid on commission, so I didn’t feel pressured by the salespeople who just wanted to make a sale. Everyone was so knowledgeable, and Nicholas and Ari were great! There were a few bumps in the process simply due to my bank and previous car loan, but Nico and Ari made sure that I ended up with the car I wanted. I am so, so happy with my car and the whole experience! Thank you guys again!
Tracy was so helpful and I felt well taken care of
From beginning to end, the best car buying experience I’ve ever had. Our salesman Brad was amazing. He was up front and truthful about everything. Took extra time to go over everything with us. I can’t say enough about how this dealership operates and does business. I will always return to this dealership no matter where I move to in the future. The general sales manager Ronnie was also amazing. He took the time to personal welcome us in and sat with us several times during the paperwork process to help lighten the mood. Told us several jokes and also stories about the dealership. A great way to relax us during the stress of financing and paperwork. Thank you again to Brad and Ronnie for making us apart of the family!
I just purchased a Subaru from Noah Daigen at Gainesville Subaru. Noah was genuinely caring, knowledgeable and found me the exact car I needed. The entire experience was enjoyable as it should be. In the past I have dreaded purchasing a vehicle but Noah made it great again! Thank you Noah and Gainesville Subaru.
Thanks to Noah for getting me into my first car, answering my many questions, and making the process so smooth!
No haggle sales policy was stress free. Bob was attentive, knowledgeable, and no pressure. He got the car we wanted transferred from another dealership for us. We love our new Outback! The best part is that, because of a great interest rate special from Subaru, it came out to the same payments as a used car with a lower price tag would have with credit union interest rates.
This review particularly pertains to their service department. If the time it takes to work on your vehicle is of considerable length they offer to shuttle you home/pick you back up. They also are upfront with cost/time. They don’t overbook their mechanics. They also realized a billing error on a previous service and offered to make it up to me. They run a tight ship over here.
Best dealership I’ve been to! Go see Brad. He is honest and very fair. Tells it like it is! Funny guy too! Sure to get a great deal and thoroughly enjoy your experience.
The people here from the salesman, who sold me the car over 2 years, to Emily in the service department. I have had an excellent experience! I love my 2017 Subaru Forester and Subaru of Gainesville! I do feel like part of a family! Thank you!
Best dealership ever. Awesome staff, they wash and vacuum your car. Quality snacks, coffee bar, comfortable reception area for while you wait service.
People at Subaru put the clients need before everything. They are great!
I came from Ft Lauderdale all the way up to Gainesville to buy my new Forester because the Gainesville crew is so much nicer to work with — honest, straight forward and fair. It was well worth the trip. They made it easy, were so accommodating, and took great care of me. This is the second car I’ve bought from them and it probably won’t be the last. Thanks Chris and Noah for a very pleasant and carefree buying experience.
This was the best experience ever buying a car! Greg Cox was attentive the entire time, always helpful answering questions. The staff at Gainesville Subaru is excellent. My new Outback is wonderful with so many safety features and a really smooth ride. This is the place!
If youve never experienced quality service you havent been to a Subaru dealer. As well as a quality car you will enjoy excellent service a friendly helpful staff and experienced auto mechanic.
I just started looking for a new Subaru and thankfully had the good fortune to have Bradley Searles help me in my quest. No pressure, really knowledgeable and just the nicest man. He was honest and forthcoming with my questions and super patient. Probably the best experience I ever had with a salesman. Ask for him when you go to get your vehicle!
We visited this dealership several times to test drive and review the Subaru Forrester. Bradley Searles was extremely knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions. They did not have the one I wanted, but found one very quickly. Definitely need to visit if you are looking for a Subaru.
Buying a used car from the Subaru dealership was the best. They were very attuned to my needs and were extremely pleasant. They didnt rush me and let me know upfront what deals they could help me get. Literally no headache and they were NEVER pushy about a vehicle. I will definitely get my next car from them again. Chris Lopez was amazing!
After searching for weeks and visiting at least 5 different dealerships I ended up going to Subaru of all places, to buy my Toyota Corolla. One dealership tried to sell me a frame damaged car. I was expecting the same treatment I’d received at other dealerships, but was pleasantly surprised. My sales person was George, who was very patient and knowledgeable. He took the time to talk to me about everything Subaru offers and even had one of his tall coworkers squeeze into my Corolla to show me how well taller people fit. I took my new car to my mechanic and everything was perfect. Thank you so much Subaru team, I absolutely love my car!
Bradley was very professional, genuinely straight forward, and was such a pleasure to work with! Chad was extremely helpful in giving us multiple options for financing that we were not aware of. This dealership wants the best for their customers. They have more than earned my business!
By far the best car buying experience ever! Noah and the finance team got us into a wonderful car and we could not be happier, thanks again y’all!!
I love my Subaru and I love the service. I was kept informed all the way through. There is a comfortable, clean place to sit with free latte! Best car and best service ever.
