When I returned, I met Debbie who was very pleasant., I believe Dbbie is the Hostess. We had a great conversation and before I knew my car was ready to go. I was given a free car wash and was on my way home. Thanks Johnson Subaru! More

They always make sure their customers don't have long waits and are always up-front about our vehicle and what it needs. They seem to know their business. No one here has tried to put a "hard sell" on us. Frank Rees waited on us yesterday and seems to be a pro in every aspect of the business. More

Excellent experience I did research online for the make and model I wanted. I saw the online price and decided to call the dealership.

I went for a test drive, and because I wasn't purchasing the car that day I had to put down a refundable deposit. I was skeptical about this at first, but then I realized it was because someone else was interested in the car, and offered to buy it from me right there on the spot. I declined of course, and came back first thing the next day to make the final purchase. Michael Kelly my sales person was very helpful and professional. More

The finance gentleman, Joshua, while helpful on the day of the sale, did not respond to my call or emails after the sale. I contacted Shayan, who immediately followed up and resolved my issue. I have had negative experiences with your finance team in the past, too. The sales team has been consistently professional! Donna More

A GREAT car-buying experience My wife and I have purchased two Subaru Outback's from Johnson Subaru in Cary and have had nothing but great experiences, both times. We were the old My wife and I have purchased two Subaru Outback's from Johnson Subaru in Cary and have had nothing but great experiences, both times. We were the old-fashioned type of customers who, after visiting almost every new-car dealer in town, just walked in without an appointment and requested a test-drive. The sales person put absolutely no pressure on us to buy but, in both cases, we ended up WANTING to do business with him. When we took one of the cars in for a recall notice, they loaned us a car (a high-priced AUDI) which we kept overnight. I have never had better buying experiences then with Johnston Subaru and certainly plan to buy, again. More

Happy to sell, won't stand behind warranty for repairs I purchased my 2013 Legacy off the Johnson Subaru showroom floor and it consumes so much oil that the emergency oil light in the dash comes on between I purchased my 2013 Legacy off the Johnson Subaru showroom floor and it consumes so much oil that the emergency oil light in the dash comes on between every oil change. My wife and kids have been stuck on the side of the highway with the oil light on fearing that driving any further would result in catastrophic engine failure due to low engine oil levels. The car was not engineered to use this much oil during ordinary driving conditions and Subaru and Johnson Subaru are simply passing along the future costs of engine repairs to consumers by holding steadfast to their claims that the oil consumption I and many others are experiencing is "normal." I purchased the car on September 15, 2013 and 4 days later (September 19, 2013) Subaru issued TSB Number 02-143-13R which has since been revised with additional recommendations for repairs. The TSB acknowledges an issue with oil consumption in the 2.5L FB engine which is in my vehicle. The repair protocols outlined in the TSB were obviously not the result of a 4 day investigation into the problem. The problem existed for many months in the 2013 model year Legacy I own, and the same problem has existed for years in previous Forester models. There is a problem in either the quality control or in design which is a manufacturing defect and the TSB states the fix is extensive, which translates into "expensive" and Subaru is more than happy to pass that expense along to me by holding fast to false statements that the oil consumption I'm experiencing is "normal." I seek to purchase vehicles that last. I feel like the car and reputation of Subaru quality has been misrepresented...I'd go so far as to say I have been lied to. Further, I am getting the run around from Johnson Subaru and obviously customer service is not a priority because they could care less. The Service Manager called me twice, once asking me if I'd like a new engine put in my car, to which I replied, "yes." He said he'd be happy to do that if he could find a way for Subaru to pay for it. I asked him to get back to me by the end of the week with an update and I never heard back from him again. I am completely dissatisfied with my vehicle and the response from Subaru and Johnson Subaru. There is nothing normal about the oil consumption I am experiencing and the issued TSB tells me that Subaru recognizes there to be a manufacturing defect for which they are unwilling to take any responsibility due to the expensive nature of repairs. I have been contacted by the attorney's leading the class action lawsuit against Subaru for this exact problem, but at this time, do not wish to extend the hassles and frustration I have already experienced. While I like driving the car, Subaru has already missed the mark with me due to their inability to come clean and make the necessary repairs - it's dishonest and I'm tired of the hassle. The car has lost value due to the known oil consumption issues (TSB) which will show up in a CARFAX if I try to sell the vehicle. It would also be unethical for me to sell the vehicle without disclosing the problem to the purchaser. I will not do to another consumer what Subaru has done to me...it's just wrong! Therefore I am left with only one viable option right now, which is to sell the car back to Subaru at a fair market price. I will let consumers know if Johnson Subaru or Subaru America agree to this solution. More
