Good service, but the wait is ridiculous. This is the second time I've taken my car in for a simple oil change and waited forever for a service rep to come in process the paperwork. Both time This is the second time I've taken my car in for a simple oil change and waited forever for a service rep to come in process the paperwork. Both times I've had an appointment, but it didn't make any difference. This last time I sat in my car for 30 minutes waiting for a service advisor. They're building new workstations for service advisors, so I'll try them one more time to see if they've gotten their act together, and then I'm going someplace else. More

I My husband and I took my Subaru in for service after noticing a single click-like sound which seemed to occur immediately after starting the engine. It appeared to be related to the AC. When we arrived for our am appt. Jesse had Antonio come out to our car and listen. Antonio knew exactly what it was. Antonio explained to both my husband and I some of the technical workings of the engine and the AC in a very easy to understand fashion. Thank you Jesse and Antonio. We are once again very happy with the wonderful service Subaru has provided us. More

2nd Poor experience in the same week. Please course correct. My recent experience with Tucson Subaru’s service department was again disappointing, and also again only highlighted by Marcos Rodriguez’s ability to My recent experience with Tucson Subaru’s service department was again disappointing, and also again only highlighted by Marcos Rodriguez’s ability to quickly assess, contain, and provide a best-course of action to navigate out of a problem caused a sensor failure. I contacted the service department at 4:00pm and spoke to Chris Valencia, I explained my issue, he asked if I’d please hold so he could ask another service technician who might know more about my issue, after several minutes holding, the system hung up on my call. I had to call back. I again reached Chris, he said the technician was busy at the moment and offered me a callback. I confirmed my name and number with Chris and asked for a time estimate, he replied “within 10 minutes”. A half hour had passed and I received no callback, during that time I had “check engine, hill assist disabled, and an eye sight failure” alerts appear when starting my vehicle without any apparent cause, so I chose to head straight to the dealership. This was my 2nd visit to the service department in the same week, and 6 days earlier my car was returned to me and had passed all diagnostics. I went straight to Marcos when I got to the dealership, showed him the alerts I was receiving and he asked for time to take it into the technician that had last worked on my car. I also let Marcos know I had been in contact with Chris and he’d failed his commitment to return my call for an hour so far, I asked Marcos to please let Chris know I was at the dealer and wanted to speak with him. Thirty minutes later, Marcos came to update me on the faulty sensor that had been identified, explained the estimate to repair, and I approved him to move forward. I again asked to speak to Chris, Marcos said he was busy with the Director. Another thirty minutes later, Chris came to find me waiting in the lobby and said he was asked to come speak to me. I recapped our 4pm call, then recapped the 2nd call when he gave a 10 minute call back commit, and then the fact that I had asked for him when I arrived at 4:45pm and now an hour had passed before he could find the time to come speak with me. Chris offered no explanation for the failed commitment or the exhaustive delay. I explained that it’s very frustrating as a customer when the service staff fails on simple commitments they’ve given, has no apparent sense of urgency to try to fix the mistake, and that Chris had left a customer waiting in the lobby to speak to him with zero communication for over an hour. During my long wait in the lobby, I saw Scott Gregg pass through at least two times. Makes me question if Chris was ever really busy with the Director in the first place? I just don’t get it. I am aware that Subaru has recently come under criticism for declining quality standards and various recalls. Previous to these recent events, I believed the Tucson Subaru dealer to be proud of maintaining higher standards, being customer focused, and taking accountability to deliver on what they commit. I understand that electronic component and production quality is out of the scope of the Tucson Subaru’s ability to influence. But the quality of treatment and respect given to customers with problematic vehicles is absolutely within the control of the service department staff at the dealership. This experience was a huge miss from my perspective, and there is no excuse for this level of communication breakdown that I’ve seen twice now in one week’s time. I have no recourse with exception that moving forward, I believe it’s best for me to go directly to Marcos for any further issues. More
Best Vehicle for My Family I have never had a car buying experience to come close to the stellar performance of all the staff of Tucson Subaru. While waiting for my Forester to I have never had a car buying experience to come close to the stellar performance of all the staff of Tucson Subaru. While waiting for my Forester to be serviced I was looking around the showroom and especially the new Ascent. Since my family size was doubling soon I felt the need for a vehicle that would accommodate more seating and still proximate the economy of my Forester. CJ Nichols pointed out the advantage of the lease program and I ended up taking home a new Ascent that I am very proud of. He didn't SELL me he educated me and Helped me reach a reasonable decision. He even pointed out options that I know would have decreased his commission had I chose to go with them . I chose to go with the Ascent and I'm glad I did. Long story short I couldn't have been better served. This is my third Subaru from Tucson Subaru and I can honestly say that I cannot see myself ever choosing another brand or another dealership. More
Breakdown and Recovery On Saturday my 2015 Subaru had unexpectedly given me multiple check engine and warning lights without any trigger I could identify. I contacted Tucso On Saturday my 2015 Subaru had unexpectedly given me multiple check engine and warning lights without any trigger I could identify. I contacted Tucson Subaru to arrange service to be performed, I explained my observations, and the service technician told me I was welcome to come in to drop off my vehicle. I came into the location for drop off, explained my observations again, agreed to bundle my upcoming oil change service along with the diagnostic, and was given a loaner vehicle to leave with that evening. The next day I had received no call throughout the entire business day regarding status, after finishing my work day I called Tucson Subaru on my way home to try to find out what was going on. The service technician had difficulty finding status on my vehicle, then later told me my vehicle was ready to go and I could come pick it up. I arrived at the location, again my vehicle status could not be found and wasn't ready, eventually Marcos Rodriguez met me to walk me through the services performed and my invoice. Marcos outlined the completed services, and there was quickly a very apparent breakdown in communication from the previous day. The primary reason I had brought my vehicle in was for the check engine, disabled hill assist, and eye sight warnings I was receiving, and after speaking with Marcos, it was clear that that part of the assignment was completely missed. I do not believe Marcos was directly responsible because he was not the agent who handled the intake of my car the previous day, he was simply trying to deliver the summary to me. Scott Gregg was the service technician who helped with my intake, he was not available the day I came to pick up. Marcos was very understanding of my frustrations and took responsibility for reconciling the problem the communication breakdown had caused. He asked to keep my vehicle and use the loaner for one more day to allow him time to fix things. I returned the next day, Marcos was ready to address all of the concerns I had with the diagnostic findings, answered my questions, and assured me my vehicle now had a clean bill of health. He did not have to, but very kindly took full responsibility for the breakdown and made the process very smooth to conclusion. Thanks Marcos for turning around a very frustrating experience into a successful one. Greatly appreciated. Bill T. More

"Going above and beyond" When we took our Dodge Journey that we bought at the Subaru dealership in for service we expected another $200 visit to fix a problem nobody has been When we took our Dodge Journey that we bought at the Subaru dealership in for service we expected another $200 visit to fix a problem nobody has been able to diagnose much less fix. Marcos not only facilitated getting our vehicle looked at by the right people but also went behind the scenes and pulled our maintenance history where he saw that we had brought our vehicle in before for the same issues. He took this to his managers and not only was the problem fixed but due to the multiple appointments they waved all the maintenance fees. Marcos didn't have to do anything beyond the professional customer service he provided at the service desk. It was due to his dedication to serving the customer that our continued loyalty to Subaru has been ensured. This is someone who cares about what they do and not just about collecting a paycheck. Thank you Marcos you are a true Professional! More
