We told him the specific details of what we were interested in buying. He immediately showed us what we were looking for, described all the features, had us take a ride in the car and gave us a quote.. He was enthusiastic, polite and knowledgeable but not pushy. As far as my wife and I are concerned, he was the best car salesman we have ever met and I am 90.. Through no fault of his, we purchased a different brand vehicle since it met our needs better. Jake still is the best car salesperson we have ever talked to. We had purchased a new vehicle from Findlay in 2014, which we still have, so we are familiar with the dealership. More

It had started to use oil about 6 months ago and has progressively become worse to a point I became very concerned. The last oil change I performed it used a quart within 900-1000 miles. I have worked in the Automotive Industry for 33 years and know a previous Manufacturer that considered that "normal usage". I disagree. After taking the car to Findlay, Robert took the car in and did an oil change free and conducted an oil usage test. Sure enough, within 1100 miles it used up over a quart of oil. I took it back in and they verified it and ordered a new motor. I'd like to thank Subaru, Findlay and especially Robert for "doing the right thing"! It may have cost Subaru $4300 to replace it, but they have a happy customer and that will speak volumes! More
A+ Customer Service Purchased a used Toyota Corolla at Findlay today after test-driving the car yesterday. Jake was my contact guy. He was courteous, friendly, knowledg Purchased a used Toyota Corolla at Findlay today after test-driving the car yesterday. Jake was my contact guy. He was courteous, friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. He was present through the entire process and dropped the car at the house shortly after the sale was complete. The Findlay dealership was low-pressure and reasonable to negotiate. I enjoyed conversations with several other associates while there and everyone seemed to enjoy their work. Overall an excellent experience. More
Rude service rep After making an online service appointment for 7am, I waited at the entrance gate past 7am for someone to unlock the gate, which finally occurred at 7 After making an online service appointment for 7am, I waited at the entrance gate past 7am for someone to unlock the gate, which finally occurred at 7:02. When I checked in with the service attendant, I was informed that they didn't begin service until 7:30am, even though the online appointments start at 7. When I told him that should be made clear online, he became very rude. I went inside to the service desk, explained my discontent, and was cheerfully told - again - that services don't begin until 7:30. I suggested that changes be made to the online appointment calendar, and the gentleman said he would try to do that, but I could tell by his manner that he was only humoring me. Since I am waiting for the service, that's 1/2 half extra that I had to sit around. But what bothers me most is the attitude of the service reps. Neither one took me seriously - can you guess, I'm a woman. They were both condescending, and the first one rude and outright irritable. I can tolerate many things, even waiting an extra half hour for service, but lmpoliteness to a customer is a deal changer. I will go elsewhere for my service. More
Greatest Customer EVER!!! Mark was the Sales Manager on duty when I went on the lot to "look" at an Outback. Ahamed approached me and was a Gentleman, rather than a typical S Mark was the Sales Manager on duty when I went on the lot to "look" at an Outback. Ahamed approached me and was a Gentleman, rather than a typical Salesman. As I developed some questions, Ahamed and Mark sought to make sure that I had the information I needed. They were both helpful, and generous with their time and attention without being pushy or abrupt. Typically if a Salesman judges that I will not buy a car from them THAT DAY, they lose interest in helping me gather information. This was not the case. I encourage Women not to feel intimidated about even stepping on the Car Lot. This one is different. Mark and Ahamed made all the difference. Ahamed gave me many technical points that made the Outback seem easier to use. I think that because he is an Engineering Student, the technical info came easier to him, and he was good at explaining everything in the detail I needed. This is one of the best Car Buying experiences that I have ever experienced. All that I can say is THANK YOU. S More
Best deal all around! We have made many new car purchases in our lives but this recent trade for a new Subaru Forester was all around the best experience we have ever had. We have made many new car purchases in our lives but this recent trade for a new Subaru Forester was all around the best experience we have ever had. From first being greeted by Zack Kastler and his trainee Jake Nelson, to being shown all the cool new features on the 2017 Forester by another great Tim's Subaru guy, we cannot say enough good about this dealership, our new Forester and the employees. Speaking of employees; the two young men, Zack Kastler and Jake Nelson, that took us through this process from start to finish are both extremely courteous, friendly, very knowledgeable about the cars and so patient with two old people. If I was their mother I could not be more proud of their work ethic. We hope the management at Tim's appreciates them as much as we do. Let's not forget Jason Jenkins who made the final deal with us. You are great! Thank you Tim's Subaru. More
Buyer Beware This dealer has lots of tricks to pad the deal in their favor. If you go online, you can get close to invoice BUT watch the "plus dealer add ons." 1. This dealer has lots of tricks to pad the deal in their favor. If you go online, you can get close to invoice BUT watch the "plus dealer add ons." 1. Up front they add on the typical window tint and paint protection neither of which you need even in Arizona. 2. They back load the deal with a $549 charge for doc fees which is excessive AND $299.95 for "theft registration" which is pre-printed onto the sales contract and is non-negotiable. Finally - absolutely terrible on trade-in. I am surprised the attorney general has not gone after dealers with "value your trade-in" on their website. You will NEVER get close to what your car is worth. If you have a car to trade, sell it first. Even with the tax break you get on trading, you will never get close to a true trade-in value with this dealer. More
Phone calls not returned Tim's Auto Group represents a dealership with poor customer service simply because they don't return phone calls, and/or no one is available to answer Tim's Auto Group represents a dealership with poor customer service simply because they don't return phone calls, and/or no one is available to answer calls. Even after writing a letter to Mr Coury, the owner of Tim's, regarding phone calls not being returned from the Loan Department, Sales Manager, and Robby Hinshaw no follow-up letter has ever been received from Mr. Coury. Very sad considering that Tim's is a dealership in a fairly small town and customer service should be a huge priority. Word is spread easily in small towns regarding good vs. poor service. Poor service results in the customer seeking a better relationship with a business, and thus I highly recommend avoiding Tim's and purchasing a car in the Phoenix or Flagstaff marketplace. More
Missing parts after car serviced I had my car serviced at Tim's Subaru, they were prompt to get me in the door which was great. The last dealership to work on my vehicle had done a po I had my car serviced at Tim's Subaru, they were prompt to get me in the door which was great. The last dealership to work on my vehicle had done a poor job and was responsible for my fix, so I went back to Prescott to retrieve my car while I worked things out and I told Tim's Subaru to keep my car dismantled. Upon returning home my mechanic casually noticed the radiator missing, they promptly found the radiator and my washer fluid reservoir and sent them to me. Several months later I was able to get my car fixed and a new long block installed, while my mechanic was putting everything together he found many missing parts, which totaled to over $400 in new parts I had to buy, including belts, and covers, and a battery, etc. Because Tim's Subaru had failed to put all my parts into my car for some reason. When I called and told Mike, the service manager he told me to send him a list of the parts and he would take a look. He never got back to me after I sent him the list and I told him to please just send me a check. He didn't. Months later when I had time again I sent him an email and he called me and told me there was nothing he could do, that the parts "should" have been put back in my car. Sorry buddy, but the parts were never put back in my car because your guys were being incompetent. I would like for them to please send me my check I requested because it is not right that I have to pay for parts that were on my engine when I brought it to them and then those parts went missing when I picked up my vehicle. My vehicle was always locked always, except at the Tim's Subaru dealership, the car was left in the lot with the window rolled down because they had pulled the battery, I had to take and put jumper cables on my battery terminals before I could trailer it home so I could roll the window up, and no one would come and steal some very specific parts out of my car.

What a disaster! I had work done on my car by CERTIFIED SUBARU TECHNICIANS. Recently, I took my car to the dealer back home in California.

They were amazed that this car was serviced by someone certified by Subaru. I had work done on my timing belt cover. They used the wrong sealant! Because of this, internal components became cracked and are now leaking as a result. The repairs to make up for their mistake would have cost me twice of what the initial job should have cost. Luckily, the work was done under warranty and Subaru Pacific took care of me. Not only did they botch work on my ENGINE, the also used the wrong OIL FILTER and probably wrong oil too. I thought these guys were friendly and convenient. Truth is, they're a bankrupt dealership and will cut corners anywhere they can. I will happily drive to Phoenix next time I need service on my car. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. More
