I had to bring in my vehicle for last-minute repairs and they were able to get me in within a reasonable amount of time and at a reasonable cost. The woman who helped me was great, too! I highly recommend this dealership and will be bringing my Subaru back to them for future repairs. More

Oil Change and Warranty Work Great I was scheduled to have some service work on my 2013 Subaru Outback this past Monday February 26, 2018. I arrived at 8 am and although I was a half h I was scheduled to have some service work on my 2013 Subaru Outback this past Monday February 26, 2018. I arrived at 8 am and although I was a half hour early for my 8:30 appointment, Jessica was happy to go ahead with my check-in. She mentioned that the work would take about 2 hours and that it was good that I arrived early so they could begin the work right away. I went to one of the customer waiting areas and at about 9:50 am she came to tell me my car was ready. Back at her service desk, she went over the work completed with me, asked if I had any questions, I signed, and went on my way. A quick in and out, great treatment by Jessica, and I'm happy about my visit. I might add that I did not bur this car from this dealership, but they have treated me like I did ever since I began taking it here earlier this year. Everyone I encountered in this dealership has always been welcoming to me on my 3 visits so far. I can highly recommend this dealership for service and friendliness. More

Oil change and nitrogen in tires I made an appointment on line and showed up at the appointed time. Paper work was ready, was told it would take about 1 hour to 1 hour, 15 minutes.

I did receive a small discount, but not enough to make up for my lost time. Coupons sent are worthless as they don't cover any of the services used. More

I will NEVER do business with Downtown Subaru again… ever. I got a call from Downtown Subaru that my 2012 Impreza was up for a recall. What was supposed to be a FREE 3hr repair took 1 week and cost me $880 I got a call from Downtown Subaru that my 2012 Impreza was up for a recall. What was supposed to be a FREE 3hr repair took 1 week and cost me $880. ——— FULL STORY My first 2 interactions with Downtown Subaru weren’t great either but I chalked them up to the car dealership stigma and moved on. I got a call a week ago that there was an active recall on my Impreza and was told that it should only be a 3 hr repair. I made an appointment and brought it in on Wednesday Nov 29th at 10:30am. When I dropped the car off the agent checking me in let me know that the car wouldn’t be done until later that afternoon because they couldn’t get to it for at least 3 hrs… I don’t know what the point of having an appointment is then… but moving on. At 5pm I still have yet to hear anything and I know they close at 6pm so I give them a call. The agent says that the tech didn’t realize I had heated seats and cut the wires off in the wrong place so they needed to order a part but it should be in on Friday and they’ll get the car done first thing. I let them know that this is a huge inconvenience for me because I have meetings I have to drive to the next day so they offer to put me in a loaner. Fantastic… So I head down to the dealer to pick up the loaner. I always do an inspection when I get rentals and for whatever reason… probably just my annoyance I didn’t this time… bad on me. The agent when I was checking out the car said there was a tire pressure warning and not to worry about it. Okay whatever… Then I get in the car and notice that the front passenger side tire is at 45psi and the rest are at 35. I go through Thursday just fine and don’t hear anything from the dealer. On my way home on Friday I hit a pothole, it was a doozy, and sure enough that front passenger tire blows out. Luckily, I’m only a few blocks from my house so I just drive it back and park it on the curb. When I get out to inspect there’s a pretty big gash out of the sidewall of the front AND rear tire. I don’t remember hitting the back tire as well but I’m willing to concede it’s possible. So I pop the trunk to get out the spare… when I see that they’ve put wheel locks on the rims. ugh… so I crank the lugs off and when I get to the wheel lock the thing just strips out and now the tire is stuck on the car and I’m not getting it off. So I call the dealer to let them know that I can’t get the flat off and get an update on my car. Unfortunately, the part “just got in” and they haven’t gotten to my car yet. They tell me to call the roadside assistance number on the window and they’ll tow the car back to the dealer and get me in another vehicle since my car still isn’t done. I remind them that it’s 4:30pm on a Friday, it’s pretty unlikely that the tow truck driver is going to get here and get me over to the dealer by 6pm. I’m assured that they’ll make it work for me and stay as late as needed to get me back on the road. 7pm rolls around and after multiple calls back and forth with Roadside Assistance the tow-truck driver finally shows up. I call the dealer to let them know I’m on the way when I get an agent who informs me that they don’t have any other cars to put me in… so just give the key to the driver and he can drop it in the box. This is literally the thing I told them would happen but at this point I’m so burnt out that I just say fine, I’m just going to go without a car for Saturday. They say that they’ll call me tomorrow when my car is done. Sat no call Sun no call Mon no call I call in Monday and I’m told that the tech who was working on my car had to leave but no worries they’ll get someone else to work on it. At this point I’m passing the line of annoyed… Tuesday at 5pm I get a call that my car is done and ready for pick up. I let them know that there’s no way I’m driving across town at 5pm so I just say I’ll pick it up in the morning. Get to the dealer Wed morning exactly 1 week after dropping it off. I’m greeted by the agent who says “ here you go no charge for the repair” I half mumble “recall”… He then says…. “About the “damage” to the rental.” I say “damage”? I got a flat tire. He asks if I looked at it… “yeah I did…. It looked like there were 2 chunks out of the sidewall” He then says that the rims we’re damaged two… I agree they we’re gouged from the pothole but it was just the outer bit of the rim… the trunk (which I did happen to point out when I picked up the car) looked like it was backed into a light pole. I can see where this is going so I ask how much they want to charge me for the “damage” $880 I attempt to hold back a laugh… I fail The agent then says basically it’s $280 per tire and $160 per rim to repair. Eye-roll He asks if I want to get my insurance company involved… I inform him that my car insurance doesn’t cover road hazards. that’s why I get the hazard insurance when I buy my tires. He says “yeah but you didn’t buy these tires there”… Wow. really… I digress. Needless to say I push back and forth with him and he leaves a couple times to go talk to his manager and at the end of it all it’s a “well, sorry… you’re responsible” situation. So I threw down my credit card and bite the bullet and ask where the service managers desk is…. When I walk into the service managers office, my sarcasm and eye-rolling has turned to a red face and quivering voice and it’s all I can do to hold it together enough to tell him that I am EXTREMELY disappointed with the way this situation was handled and will NEVER EVER EVER bring my car in for service at his dealer again. He somewhat shrugs and says sorry that I feel that way and he’ll look into it. It’s been 3 days and I haven’t heard a thing. When I hit that pothole they had a chance to turn around the really crappy experience I was having… but instead they chose to ding me again. And for what $880? The last time I had my car worked on there it was almost $2,500. I promise you they will never see another dollar from me. I will never buy a car from them and I will make it my mission to tell everyone I know with a Subaru to take their car somewhere else. More

Great knowledge and caring! Chris Knapp was my sales rep. He was both knowledgeable and caring. There was no pressure at all instead I was given education on what my Outback offe Chris Knapp was my sales rep. He was both knowledgeable and caring. There was no pressure at all instead I was given education on what my Outback offered - very enjoyable experience. Everyone at this dealership was helpful and easy going. I had difficulty deciding on a vehicle and color and Chris was patient with me and wanted to make sure I got the right vehicle for me. He spent time with me regarding all my concerns. This was the most enjoyable experience I have had in purchasing a vehicle. Thank you Chris and to all the Nashville Downtown Subaru staff. More

It was the best car buying experience because of the sales person I dealt with, Mr. Rahim Ashari. There were no misleading statements or false promises. He was very sensitive to the boundaries I set, and very respectable space. There were no surprises or gimmicks after all was done. More

Good technical work, lack of organization I have taken my subaru in several times for maintenance and part changes, and the technical service itself is high quality. As for management and the I have taken my subaru in several times for maintenance and part changes, and the technical service itself is high quality. As for management and the experience leading to the service, it lacks organization. They committed to have my parts in two days, I went back in as we agreed, and the parts had not arrived yet. I did not get a call or any sort of notification about this. They tell me to come back in two more days. They did give me a discount for the troubles. Another issue is their customer service on the phone. You call, they transfer you from department to department, the information does not match from person to person, and it just becomes a cluster.

They told me it would take 4 hours to fix. 4.5 hours later, they told me it would be another hour. I went to dinner with a friend while I waited for a phone call... Nothing through closing that night. The next day, I went there in a friend's car (they never offered a loaner). As I was parking, a gentleman approached me so I explained the situation. He told me he would check on my car and be right back. NEVER returned! While I waited for him, I called the dealership and they told me my car was not ready. When I asked how long it would take, they told me they'd have to do some research and would let me know. Never got a call back that day. The next day was Sunday, so they were closed. I called on Monday from work, and the lady told me my car had been ready since Friday! What?! When I arrived to pick my car up, all I got was $40 off the alternator belt I had agreed to let them fix. NEVER AGAIN. More
