Subaru for Life! I love my new Impreza. Dominique did not rush me as I test drove about 5 vehicles trying to decide new or used and SUV, Sedan, or something sporty. I love my new Impreza. Dominique did not rush me as I test drove about 5 vehicles trying to decide new or used and SUV, Sedan, or something sporty. I fell in love with the Impreza. Working with Dominique, Stewart, and Robbie from Sales was a breeze. Cliff from Service made sure my car was washed and detailed and ready to go when I was finished with my paperwork. I will definitely be back to Subaru of OP when I need service and will refer my friends and family as well. More
I feel conned. I feel conned and wish I had read the reviews before venturing to this dealership. I spent the last few weeks doing all my research on the car I wan I feel conned and wish I had read the reviews before venturing to this dealership. I spent the last few weeks doing all my research on the car I wanted (Mini Cooper S 2012) when I came across the exact one I wanted at this dealership only to be disappointed that it was over my budget. None the less I kept my eye on it and seeing that after a few weeks of being on their lot it had not sold I thought nothing ventured, nothing gained and decided to email an offer. I immediately received an email back stating "Your offer doesn't seem unattainable as long as you like everything about the vehicle." I took this statement to mean that my offer was within reach/not too difficult to achieve and immediately texted them I would be coming to look at the vehicle and jumped in my car to make the two hour drive to their location. Upon arrival the salesman acknowledged my email, was informed that it was a good offer, and asked if I wanted to test drive it. After the test drive I did mention to the salesman that the windshield was cracked and was told that I would have to buy the car as is and make an insurance claim myself. Other than that, the car was everything I wanted so we proceeded to the office where I was completely blindsided when the manager comes back telling me that the original price was as low as he could go and my offer was never even being considered. Clearly integrity is "unattainable" for this dealership. More
Happy Impreza Girl I can't speak much for the rest of the staff, but I will say that Sean Kelley went above and beyond to make a deal work for me on my 2015 Impreza I ha I can't speak much for the rest of the staff, but I will say that Sean Kelley went above and beyond to make a deal work for me on my 2015 Impreza I had my eye on for about a month. I'm from Charleston SC and he bent over backwards to negotiate with Terry exact numbers of exactly what I would be paying for the car before I showed up in Florida to drive it off the lot. Which turned out to be almost a month process at the end of the day. Compared to other Subaru salesman nearby where i live, he was the only one who kept checking in to make sure everything was going as planned to make it a deal that works for me. When we finally agreed and I traveled down to get it, he personally picked me up from the train station (which is a significant distance from the dealership) so I didn't have to pay for a cab. When I showed up, he had my car detailed and had all his homework done on explaining every single in and out detail of the car which made the final decision very easy for me especially since we had already agreed to my numbers on what I could afford so there wasn't any wasted time haggling, which in my experience makes the car purchasing process very unpleasant when it should be exciting! He was very honest and made me feel very comfortable and not pressured at all. Given the rest of the reviews on here and a couple other people I encountered, I'm a little concerned about the other post-processes such as title and registration going smoothly especially since I live so far away, but there's no doubt in my mind that Sean is just a phone call away to help me out even though the sale is already done. Definitely a genuine guy who cares about his customers. Thanks Sean and Subaru of orange park! For getting me into the perfect car for me :) More
Awful experience. Awful Used car manager. If I could rate it a 0 stars I would. On Sunday I made an appointment to see a vehicle at 4:00pm on Monday with the sales manager Terrance, I came in If I could rate it a 0 stars I would. On Sunday I made an appointment to see a vehicle at 4:00pm on Monday with the sales manager Terrance, I came in at 2:30pm because I finished my obligation early and Terrance informed me that a family was coming in to buy the vehicle that I had made the appointment too see... he said they called and made an appointment that morning...so I said, well I made the appointment and I am here... and he shook my hand and replied, "You have nothing to worry about, you made the appointment first so you will have first shot at the vehicle, that's how we do things here at Subaru of Orange Park." So as he is saying this the family walks in and sits in the cubicle right next to me. Which was extremely awkward and unprofessional. So the guy helping me ( not Terrance) was really nice, and we went for a test drive, got back to the cubicle and worked the numbers out, while we are doing this the other sales person who was helping the family comes over and takes the keys so that the family can test drive it. So we worked the numbers up, and I said ok let me step outside and call my wife and make sure she is ok with this purchase, and if she's cool with it then we will do it. So while I am on the phone the family comes back from the test drive, walks in and sits down at the cubicle, and my sales guy who was helping me comes out and says, "they bought it." (while I am on the phone with my wife)... I said.. excuse me, Terrance told me that I had first option, and if I didn't want the vehicle, then the family would get to decide if they wanted it... he said sorry, they just told me it was sold and to come out and tell you. So I walk in and surprise, surprise Terrace is no where to be found, and didn't answer my phone calls when I tried to call him after I left. I will never do business there again, and my friends and family wont either... I suggest you stay away.. extremely shady and don't care about the customer at all. More

Looking for a Subaru Outback, Orange Park Fl sent out a blast email with the 110 % price guarantee. Presented written offer from Jax Subaru to Heath the internet manager and he came back with "can't touch that". Asked about the 110 % and he said nothing!! This is a bait and switch!!! Will never shop there again!! I went straight back to Jax Subaru and purchased a 2016 outback limited. More

Outstanding Service! My Subaru Forester needed its 60,000 mile maintenance service, requiring me to drop off the car for more than 5 hours. I am a caregiver for my husban My Subaru Forester needed its 60,000 mile maintenance service, requiring me to drop off the car for more than 5 hours. I am a caregiver for my husband who was recently in an accident and also pick my grandchildren up each day from school. I have a very limited window of time that I can be without my car and away from home. Daniel Carter at Subaru of Orange Park went above and beyond the call of duty by setting a service appointment that worked with my schedule, arranging for a loaner car for me while my car was being serviced, and staying after hours on the service date to ensure the work was completed as promised. It is rare these days to find people in business who do what they say they are going to do and I am so appreciative of Daniel Carter for doing exactly what he promised. He and his team are a great asset to Subaru of Orange Park. They are friendly, honest and great to work with, and I recommend them highly. More

Awful Lies over Lies We found a car online and made an appointment to drive an hour away to see it based on its availability. The car was gone when we got there and was in We found a car online and made an appointment to drive an hour away to see it based on its availability. The car was gone when we got there and was informed that it had been traded to another dealership. They had another much higher ($10,000) priced version of the one we wanted. We asked them to search the inventory of the local dealership to our house and was told they did not have any and if we wanted one we would have to wait 8 weeks to order one, drive to Bradenton FL or buy the only one they had on sight. We were asked for our trade pay off by the salesman before they took a look at our like new condition vehicle with new tires and zero damage. They offered us exactly $2000 below its fair market dealer trade value. I asked why and was given a million excuses. I asked for proof of this document and after nearly 30 minutes I was handed some type of photoshopped document claiming that our vehicle was in "Rough" shape. Next we asked about special financing and was told that there is no special financing on this car because its an easy seller for them. Up to this point everything that has happened was basically a lie or a cheat to manipulate our purchase making decisions. We end up buying the car that had for $36,000 at a rate of 3.44% @ 84 months. The next day I found the exact car we originally wanted at Subaru of Jacksonville in the same color we asked for and they were offering it at 1.9% for 72 months, which is the same interest rate we were already paying with a credit score of 783. I reached out to Jack Hanania, the owner of Subaru and heard nothing. I left multiple messages with the sales manager and heard nothing. So finally I called Subaru Customer Care and they started a file regarding everything. Eventually I was contacted by the General Manger and we exchanged several emails and phone calls outlining the problems, concerns and exactly what I wanted to be fixed. This turned into several weeks now of a run around. At one point after reviewing the information the GM called and offered me free oil changes for a year which has a value of less than $100. Mind you you have been overcharged now in high interest to the amount of nearly $2500. Next he starts telling me that his guys are good and that one of them has been distracted because he has cancer and that it was not intentional. Seriously??? Why is that my business and why is he using that as an excuse for his sales team lying to us? In the end I would say this was the worst car buying experience we have had and I have personally owned 6 new cars in my life. My last communication from the GM was a response to an email I sent warning them to take me seriously or I would report them. The GM's response was that I was a hostel person and that he was now going to revoke any offers he had previously made and he would be turning me over to his legal team. Just to be clear I asked them specifically for three things. 1st I requested that they give us a fair offer for our trade based on its real condition. 2nd I wanted them to give us the proper interest rate. 3rd I wanted them to discount the $2000 extended 100,000 mile warranty that we purchased as compensation for the now 20 days of arguing and time wasted. To this day, none of these things have happened. Sincerely, Paul G. More
