  • LIthia Reno Subaru Crosstrek buying experience

    Best car buying experience ever, can't say enough about how helpful the sales team was. Clear, straightforward communication and 110% fulfillment of expectations.
  • Unethical Service Employees, Incompetent Technicians, Hands-Off Management

    1 out of 5 starsby Justin S on 01/19/2022

    Inexperienced and/or incompetent service technicians that fail to identify safety issues and deceptive sales practices. Since August 2021, I have taken my 2016 WRX in 3 times. The first for a routine oil change and inspection, the 2nd time to correct a loose lug nut that Lithia Reno Subaru failed to torque correctly on the previous visit, as well as to replace rear brake pads which were in fact at 3mm and in the "replace immediately" range despite Lithia Reno Subaru indicating them at 6mm and in the "green" range during the previous visit. On the 3rd visit, I was charged nearly 50% more than first quoted for a 60k mile service due to the service advisor taking it upon himself to recommend services himself that Subaru of America does not recommend. At no point was it indicated these were personal recommendations or Lithia Reno Subaru recommendations, not Subaru of America recommendations. I did not find this out until after the fact from doing my own research. Going to get your car serviced, you need to be able to have peace of mind that your car is in good mechanical condition after getting scheduled maintenance and inspections done. You should also have confidence in the ethics of the service advisors you do business with. In my experience, you won't find either at Lithia Reno Subaru's service department. Following a complaint to Lithia corporate, Lithia Reno Subaru finally reached out to me on January 11th. They offered no resolution and instead offered a generic apology for the inconvenience and stated they believe everything was represented fairly. Moral of the story: Potential customers do not be fooled by any responses by the owner posted by Randy Goldman the GM suggesting he is a problem solver who cares about resolving customer concerns. I can tell you firsthand he is equally unwilling to resolve complaints about his dealership and is hands-off in the process. As a result, he defers to his department managers who evidently condone unethical behavior exhibited by their employees. Save yourself the headache and go to a local automotive shop or Michael Hohl Subaru in Carson City.
  • The incompetence is astonishing

    2 out of 5 starsby Disappointedcustomer933 on 02/16/2021

    The incompetence is astonishing! I scheduled my service appointment online. then four days Later I called to confirm my appointment and confirm that it could be done in one day and I was told that it could be done in one hour. So, I took the day off work, I showed up to my appointment 20 minutes early and when I was finally helped I was informed that my car cannot be fixed today and they would be happy to reschedule. every time I go there to get my car serviced, they have never been able to do what they promised, in the timeframe they promise.

    5 out of 5 starsby mason_c on 11/18/2019

    Calin made the car buying experience very smooth and enjoyable. I told him what I was looking for he gave me recommendations based on my best interest which I appreciated. I'd send anyone going to that dealership to calin.

  • Satisfactory

    3 out of 5 starsby Renee89511. on 08/03/2019

    I went in with a preapproved auto loan, however they still required me to run a credit check for “security purposes.” I was completely unhappy because it dinged my credit again, and it took over two hours just for the process! However, I did end up with a lower APR and payment, so I can’t fuss about that. I’m happy with the vehicle I purchased (2014 Subaru Impreza), unfortunately I expected to leave with a semi detailed vehicle and a full tank of gas, but instead, I left with a dusty vehicle with half a tank. Where is the top customer service?

    I want to personally commend John Drake who always takes care of me when i visit Lithia Subaru, this is also why I have purchased 3 vehicles from this dealership. This particular visit was a last minute decision to have my car serviced and was finished in a fast manner.
  • Amazing!!!

    5 out of 5 starsby Amazing on 07/22/2019

    Tom Verdin was absolutely amazing! He took time with us to help us find exactly what we needed, and even cane in on his days off to help us! He wasn’t just a salesman, he felt like family. He wasn’t pushy and let us take our time making our decision. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

  • LITHIA

    4 out of 5 starsby RAY on 06/13/2019

    I am very satisfied with my purchase. I wanted a small economy car around 6 to 700-. JD found a good car and Jesse found financing for it which I know was a challenge due to age and mileage, and my credit rating too. there were some glitches but they were all worked out. Thanks again to JD and Jesse

  • Evan is awesome

    5 out of 5 starsby Mason on 05/16/2019

    My experience at Lithia Subaru was great. I came in knowing I wanted a crosstrek but Evan totally helped me figure out all the specifics accessories that I wanted. He did a great job and went above and beyond to get me into that car that day.
