  • Beware of Dishonest Sales Practices at Timmons Subaru

    1 out of 5 starsby SubaruOwner on 09/07/2024

    I had a very stressful experience with Timmons Subaru, specifically with a salesman Henry Park. I purchased a car that turned out to be defective, and I believe Henry knew about the issues but sold it to me anyway. This caused me months of stress and inconvenience. I find this level of dishonesty unacceptable and want to warn others to be cautious when dealing with this dealership. I would not recommend buying from Timmons Subaru.
  • Indoor Side panel repair

    4 out of 5 starsby Quality on 12/12/2023

    We had both of our indoor side panels near our front windshield coming off. The service department at Timmons was able to order the clips for the side panels. The ordering process and scheduling to get the panels fixed were seamless. However, the interior panels were replaced and left with fingerprint smudges. Overall, the work order was all taken care of in a timely manner. It helped that all parts were still under warranty. As for the smudges, hopefully a little soap and water will do the trick.
  • Outback Wilderness

    4 out of 5 starsby Dan from OC on 11/08/2023

    Everything okay, except I asked for the dealer installed trailer towing hardware and they haven’t updated me about when they will be ready to do it.
  • replacement of radio

    4 out of 5 starsby Claire P on 10/21/2023

    The staff who took in my appointment and took in my car the day of were very professional and very helpful. They explained how long the service might take and offered a courtesy shuttle if needed.
  • Check up on control panel

    5 out of 5 starsby Michael A on 08/22/2023

    I was treated like a star from the minute I arrived. Loaner car was excellent and service representative kept me updated every few hours.
  • I'll Drive Far for Quality, Respectful Service

    4 out of 5 starsby Luissimo on 07/11/2023

    As I indicated to the Service Engineers, I live far from Long Beach, but I will fight through the L.A. traffic rather than take a chance at a new place. They've been taking care of my car's needs efficiently and respectfully. I didn't give them a 5 Star Rating because I didn't get a return phone call the previous day, when I was trying to book an appointment.

  • Second purchase with Timmons

    5 out of 5 starsby Ximena G. on 12/28/2022

    This was my second purchase with Timmons and I’m glad I returned. Jeff Sollee was amazing from start to finish, and RC and Mario also provided the best experience. Shopping for a new car can be stressful, but I never felt pressured with Jeff. He was straightforward and easy going. Timmons has a solid team, I would highly recommend Timmons to anyone in the market for a Subaru.
  • SELLER BEWARE

    1 out of 5 starsby GT on 05/11/2019

    Timmons gave me a written quote to purchase my car for $1,975. They stated the quote was good for 7 days. They were very cordial. Five days later, I returned to sell my car. They refused to buy my car for the quote price, indicating that mechanical issues caused them to change their quote. When I asked what issues, they would not provide any specifics. They became very cold and told me they did not need my car and I could take their offer or walk away. Yikes. Naturally, I was not happy and told them so. They then kept me waiting 2.5 hours before the paperwork (2 pages) was ready to sign. They told me I had to wait in their waiting area or run the risk that it would take longer for the paperwork to be completed. I am a senior citizen and feel like this felt like they would easily take advantage of me. DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS OUTFIT. THEY ARE NOT ETHICAL.
  • Timmons Subaru Service

    1 out of 5 starsby Dissatisfied on 01/13/2018

    My experience with Timmons Subaru service of my 2008 Subaru Outback took five diagnostic checks over a period of three weeks from DEC 2017 to JAN 2018 to resolve a problem. The automobile was completely out of service during the three week period. The service was excessively time consuming, overly costly and was ultimately solved by Subaru Tech Line NOT by the Timmons Subaru mechanics. In addition, sensors and parts were replaced which when tested independently proved NOT to be faulty.
  • Cynthia is the Best

    5 out of 5 starsby LTS1986 on 01/10/2017

    Cynthia at Timmons was wonderful to work with. She made sure to answer all of questions and to get me a great deal. If you are wanting a Subaru, go and see her!
  • THIS DEALERSHIP DOES NOT CARE ABOUT COMBAT VETERANS!

    1 out of 5 starsby kiaalualaw on 01/03/2016

    Worst experience in my 25 plus years of serving our great country. THIS DEALERSHIP DOES NOT CARE ABOUT COMBAT VETERANS. Their website depicts treatment for HEROES (Military, Police, Fire, Education)” At Timmons Subaru, we believe that the brave men and women who make a difference deserve just a little bit more.” However, this is by far false advertising, the salesperson Mitch spoke to me in detail about the service to our country, and terrorism, giving me the impression he was going to go assist me the best he can in order to try and purchase and or lease a vehicle, yet we spoke once on the phone (31 Dec 15), he told me he would call me back and when I asked if the news was good or bad, he related good, yet, he never returned my call. I made an attempt to call him on 1 Jan 16, in regards to a vehicle, left a detailed message, and he never returned my call, nor an e-mail I sent. I then called and left a message to a sales manager named April, left her a detailed message as well, and never received a call back. I then called on 2 Jan 15, and asked to speak to a General Manager, the reception then asked me what department...I then paused for a moment, and repeated myself, she was lost, she told me a business manager would be in on Monday, I then paused again, shaking my head. I then asked how about a sales manager, she transferred me to an individual who did not give have a name listed on his recording machine, another detailed message left, and again no call back. I just do not understand as to why nobody returned my calls, or followed up with me in regards to the sale or lease of a vehicle, negative news should be treated the same as positive, communicated immediately. I highly do not recommend this dealership. After deploying and fighting for our country in two separate wars, the least someone could do is acknowledge me and return my calls.
  • Great buying experience!

    5 out of 5 starsby kaloygti168 on 05/04/2015

    I bought a 2015 Outback about a month ago and am very happy about it. Very solid SUV. I was able to get an appointment at night, 8pm. And was delayed 30 minutes due to another dealership. The salesperson (Russell) still waited for me and the car was clean and ready when we got there. I was even amazed that a finance manager was waiting also. I thought they would sell something and assume I would not get a car that night, but I was wrong. They were very pleasant, and patient with me. they never rushed me or anything that's why I would recommend this dealership and Russell (salesperson). After the deal was done (signed the paperwork for financing) and it was very late at night already, Russell still took his time in discussing all the parts, accessories, and functionalities of the car. I have already told my friends and family about it. Bottom line is I love the car, loved the purchase experience too.
  • 2 Words "False Hopes"

    1 out of 5 starsby hjc985 on 02/16/2015

    I am appalled Timmons Subaru of Long Beach has a 4 star rating. All I have to say is DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE BUYING A CAR AT TIMMONS. I honestly believe Timmon's uses price gouging tactics. They list the used vehicles at a hyper inflated rate and try to rip you off. The dealer list one of the used vehicle for around $25,995 while TRUECar has that same vehicle brand new for $26,776. KBB has the used vehicle for Sell to a Private Party @ $23,747 and they want to sell me the used car for almost the same cost as the new one. Deal [non-permissible content removed]. I WOULD AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST, and save your money and time for another dealer that will actually give you a real deal. It is a shame Timmons wants to be greedy, or we could have made a deal. I do not write reviews, but I was so disappointed at this place that other people need to be aware. They will say anything to get you in and give false hopes at the end. I wish I could add photos for proof of sources. If your curious the vehicle was for a Used Subaru Forester XT Premium and the figures are current numbers from TRUECar, KBB, and Timmons Site as of February 15, 2015.
  • Above and beyond expectations

    5 out of 5 starsby abe20 on 06/15/2014

    This is actually my second review. I was so happy with our experience that I felt compelled to write directly to the dealership to express satisfaction. We were contacted by Russell C. after requesting a quote from the edmunds website. Russell was professional, knowledgeable, and went far beyond the call of duty to accommodate us. Throughout the whole process (which was lightening fast and easy) we felt important and well taken care of. I can't imagine a better experience. Wait...we could have been served champagne and strawberries....
  • WRX SUBY

    4.4 out of 5 starsby majlis on 10/14/2010

    Bought my 3rd WRX from Timmons last month. The WRX is a amazing car as any car lover knows. Cant beat the price for this type of performance. The staff at Timmons is great. I've worked with 2 different sales people and they both were knowledgeable. The service dept is awesome. Super easy in and out when I go for service. I like the straight to the point experience and thats what I got. So in short its a pretty cool place as far as car dealers go.
  • Watch out for "Slick" Cy

    1 out of 5 starsby omwaafounder on 05/07/2010

    First of all if you read 2 of the reviews on here they seem pre fabricated if you ask me. listing how amazing every part of the experience was. I have a hard time believing it. Anyways I bought a new Subaru and a week after I bought it "slick" Cy calls me and tries to tell me I have to put more money down! He never mentioned anything until a week after I bought it. He's a slimy [violative content deleted] beware.
