Used Subaru for Sale in Livermore, CA

It does everything and is super fun to drive. Very reliable and great in all weather. Spacious as well. Would buy over and over again.

very responsive, knowledgeable, eager answer all my question

I like this vehicle except for the engine shutting off when stopped. it does have an override switch, but if I forget to set it the engine will automatically shut off. that's the only thing I don't like about this car.

Drove down from Sacramento just before closing to buy a certified 2014 Honda Odyssey...the internet salesman Jim Bautista took his time showing us the vehicle..went over everything and made sure all our questions were answered..did not pressure us on any extras and same with the finance department...best dealership experience yet...thank you for a great experience!

This car just keeps getting better. Eyesight, Appleplay, auto door locks, improved display......I thought I loved my 2017 Outback!! Subaru continuously strives to improve upon what they have instead of trying to razzle dazzle you. I will never own anything but a Subaru.

Worked with Tom Friedman, I couldn't ask for a better sales man. He help me to buy a Buick Enclave on 2014, Silverado on 2016 and just bought a 2017 Silverado two weeks ago. Tom always make sure I got what I want at the best price posible, Definitely going back to Tracy Chevrolet. OUTSTANDING SERVICE!

The rear automatic braking system kills my love for this car. If the eyesight thinks you're going to hit something (a wall, another car, etc), it sounds a brief warning, then slams on the brakes. You might just be backing into or out of a steep driveway though. It scares the daylights out of you if you're not expecting it. Literally, the brakes will lock up. There is no instant kill switch for it, and it takes a while to turn it off while holding your finger on the button. I can't back into my own driveway without this thing slamming on the brakes unless I hold up traffic while pushing and holding a button to clear. It resets every time you put the car into reverse. I hate this "feature" so badly. I wish I could permanently disable it.

Both the person who greeted me when I drove up and the Service Advisor who helped me were awesome. Everything was explained to me and they got the service done quickly. They even checked everything on my car and found a worn wiper blade but let me know it would still be ok for awhile but that I should check it again in a month and that they would install it for me for free if I came in and bought it at their parts department.

Owned many subies, Outback, Forrester, WRX but it was my first STi. Love the grip, the sound, and the thumbs up I get from other WRX's. Engine is old and the lag is there but just keep it around 4k RPM and you'll be fine.

It was so tough for my husband and me to get rid of our old faithful cars. AJ took great care us and walked us through the process of trading in our old trucks for a sleek, smart plug-in hybrid Accord. He was super attentive, upbeat and made our experience as smooth as possible. Thanks AJ :)

Have owned 2 Volvos and the company lost it's spark. Subaru has that spot in my heart now. From the 5 star crash rating (except front passenger seat is 4 star) to great reliability records and good tech stuff I am thrilled.

Friend recommended me to one of sales manager and he offered me with good price there that I thought I was lucky on that day. Their service was good that I enjoy my new car now.

I especially like the room in the back storage area, i had to use it to haul bags of leaves when i first got it and could haul 8 bags, I can put in 2 golf bags easily, and for traveling its great.

Dealer responded back immediately and answered all my questions patiently. Did not put any pressure on me to by the car.

The only concern that I had was the fact my leg room may have been less then I had hoped for. Other then that it was an outstanding auto.

The owener worked out a great price on my Glk 350 Mercedes Excellent customer service great financing .. attention to detail..

Excellent vision in all directions from the Forester. We like the no non-sense styling of the Touring 2.5i. Easy to get into and out of which matters if getting a few years on you. Very good gas mileage and handling with excellent performance. The AWD is certainly one of many key selling points. Fit and finish is excellent with very good reliability so far. We think it is a excellent SUV and would definitely purchase another Subaru SUV if needed.

Just a simple 6,000 mile service visit at 42K miles on my Outback. Best to make an appointment particularly if you plan to wait for the work to be done. Included exterior car wash at no charge. Service Advisor delivered car at front door of dealership/waiting-area in less than an hour and went through results of multi-point check (Customer waiting area is beautiful and spacious with snacks and drinks). This is a 3 story facility with shop and write-up on first floor and Customer waiting area on third floor (street level) so could be a little inconvenient for people unable to climb stairs. The recent remodel included everything except the shop (a little surprising to me). LanceM

The service department has been absolutely outstanding. So far, I've only had to do the normal service at the prescribed mileage intervals . Mine is a 2015 Outback and I'm super happy with the car and the service provided by Diablo Subaru! Every time I brought her down, the car is ready and waiting for me at the prescribed time. One time I left the dome light on and ran the battery down . I had to have it jump-started and when we did that some of the settings for some of the accessories and features. I call the service department and made an appointment and they told me that he simply had to reflash the memory to reset it. They did that for me no charge. I was a very happy camper! This is the best dealer service I have ever experienced. That's pretty high praise considering the fact that I am 80 years of age and have owned many various cars and brands over the years. Jim

Charles was awesome. Had me out of there with a rental in less than 15 minutes and provided great insight into what is required for the service of my Subaru WRX.

My 1st Forester is a 2009 turbocharged model which is still going strong with 110,000 miles. The newer Foresters offer safety and convenience features mine doesn't have so I decided to upgrade. The 2019 Forester no longer offers the turbocharged version so I opted for a certified pre-owned 2018 XT Touring which has a turbocharger. I love the vehicle but because the turbo is no longer available, the used turbo versions have become quite pricey. I am keeping the old one for hauling dogs, lawn equipment and towing my utility trailer. The new one will be just for people for now. The vehicle is just the right size. I am 6'4" and would appreciate a little more leg room and thigh support but the Forester is as comfortable as any other small SUV I checked. There is plenty of headroom. The turbo does require premium fuel and has a lower mileage rating. With the turbo and sports tuned suspension, it is a fun vehicle to drive and worth the money to me. In over 10 years, the older one left me stranded only once when a drive belt broke after 100,000 miles. Based on reviews, I expect the same reliability from the newer one.

I wanted to buy a WRX STI Limited 2018 (WR Blue) and i couldn't find in any dealer in Bay area and i did a lot of research online, asked a lot of people on how to negotiate a better deal, visited several dealers and lastly i end up with Carlsen Subaru, met a Sales man called Richard and i told him what i wanted, i remember it was April this year, Instead of him pushing for other Wrx's they had or pushing me to press an order immediately he advice me to wait a few more months for a new version of it and promised to let me know once they are ready for ordering, two months later he texted me "The 2019 wrx sti limited is open for orders now," I went to his office and it didn't take me more than an hr to Finalize everything, and it was the best deal compared to what i was expecting, I am now driving my new WRX STI Limited 2019 and its more than a car, its exactly what i wanted, Thanx Richard and Carlsen Subaru for making my dream lively

Has a very comfortable ride. Sets up high enough to give you great visibility. Interior has less road noise than others. Good gas mileage for the size of the car and all wheel drive

My service advisor had warned me that my tires were worn out about 6 weeks ago. Then my tire pressure alert came on two days ago. Yesterday, I called Toyota 101 at 8 AM. They had me in at 10:45 AM and out on the road with four new affordable Goodyears within 90 minutes. Fast turnaround, plus a deal: October special got me 4 tires for the price of 3 + $1. Everyone I dealt with on the phone and in person was awesome. Definitely coming back here for my service and tire needs in the future!

Its sleek, sexy, fun to drive! However 2in of snow will cripple this car! So for 46 weeks of the year, I cant believe I have this car, the other 8 weeks I cant believe I have this car!!!

This is the first vehicle that I have ever purchased from Carlsen Subaru. Bret McElroy is an amazing person to work with. He answered all my questions promptly and was very friendly to speak with.I can honestly say that he made my experience painless and helped me out so much when I was looking for my 2019 Subaru Outback. Super great guy and I would highly recommend him to all my friends and family. Everyone I came in contact with at Carlsen Subaru was very friendly and outgoing. All around great experience. Thank you!! I love my new Subaru Outback.

Got me home during the biggest snow storms of the year. People were even stuck in standard trucks and we still got through without any issues.

I went in there a week ago to purchase a used vehicle. I usually dread the buying process due to the length of time, the sleaziness of the salesman, and the fear that I might be taken advantage of. None of these were the case for Carlsen Subaru. Alan showed us the Subaru I came to look at. He was friendly, genuine, and informative. When it came to purchasing the car, we were in and out in less than two hours. I never felt taken advantage of. As a woman, some salespeople think they can hoodwink us, but that was not the case at all for Carlsen Subaru. What we discussed made it into the final contract. Even though I live in Oakland, when I'm ready to purchase a new car, I'll make the trek all the way to San Carlos to see them. Thanks Carlsen Subaru!!!

This is a great vehicle and we're so glad that we purchased one. We've had a couple of minor things go wrong that should not have such as the drivers side visor starting to squeak loudly. All said we are very happy with this car. On the down side there is now standard technology out there that is not available. Automatic wipers are missing and items like remote start and subaru's safety and security package are extra when Honda includes them both free. But my biggest issue is not the car it's that there is no convenient dealersl or service anywhere near me. The nearest service is 45 minutes away. The next car will have to be available locally.

Second Subaru Outback. Love the car. Wish the electronics were simpler to program and use. Had to have a Service Tech program the clock and there appears to be no way to not have the radio come on when you start the car, go figure.

To be honest, the car is great. It looks and feels great in and out. The seats are stylish and the dash is sleek and has a large touch screen (mines a Sport model). However, there are downsides. I love how cool the screen is, but not having buttons feels dangerous. I have to look down too much to hit the buttons since I can’t feel then like a regular radio/whatever. Secondly, whoever thought it was a good idea not to make he cup holders round is crazy. Half is curved, but then it’s straightens out to look like a short bullet shape. What this means is that no cup is secure and the drinks bounce around and when you learn about it it’s from spilling coffee all over in your brand new car cuz you went over train tracks. Third, the transmissions jerks sometimes when you let off the accelerator. When it downshifts you can feel the car since back as the transmission starts to stop the car when it should be saving energy by coasting. These I’m told are normal traits in the car. Lastly, the 28mpg city rating is false. I get 20 in the city driving like a grandpa. Apparently these things suck when the engine is could and my 2 miles commute sees the worst efficiency I can imagine for a brand new 4 cylinder with such a good rating. All in all though, I like it and it’s a sexy car.

I love Carlen Subaru (Redwood City( - this is the second Subaru I have purchased through them and they continue to be professional and a great organization!

The 2019 Subaru Outback 3.6R Limited is a Fantastic car! It has an excellent six cylinder engine/CVT trans. Lots of power whenever you need it. The Outback Limited is loaded with all the latest technical wizardry you could want. The Outback has a great ride and very good handling. Plenty of room inside for people and cargo. No need for an SUV when you can drive an Outback.

Nice, clean facility. Pleasant and knowledgeable staff. Repairs done right and on time.

Looking forward to driving it for a long time and enjoying the great gas mileage and great comfort. Also love the all wheel drive for bad weather.
