This car was purchased during the Covid19 outbreak. We were comfortable in going through with the transaction given the steps Reynolds took to minimize contact between all parties. We have dealt with Reynolds before and we were able to quickly come to a compromise on the terms of the transaction. Nora and her team are professionals and they delivered what they promised. There was an unusual service issue after delivery and Nora and Sandy provided excellent customer service- someone came to the house with a new loaner and brought back our new car to address the issue. Nora followed up to make sure the issue was addressed and promised complimentary service during our first maintenance visit. We would highly recommend Reynolds to anyone who wants to purchase a SubaruJoanne W. 5/15/20
Friendly, courteous. Great waiting area, outside and in. My favorite dealership. My only dealership. 
I would definitely recommend Reynolds.

Service was fantastic. Just drive up , get out of your vehicle and tell them who you are and what you need, 
then they walk your over to the waiting area 
that has everything from snacks to coffee (free) and 40 Min. late your driving away. Who could ask for more.....

I am never disappointed going to Reynolds Subaru in Old Lime The ride there just relaxes me-so scenic The service is 
great-never any problems ALL customer service is super and I KNOW that my car is i
n good hands I also love the commercials of Subaru on TV From Patty D-one of your devoted customers ??

Absolutely fabulous! I was offered free pickup from my home and delivery for a routine service and a recall issue. 
When I went to back the Subaru out of the garage to leave it in the drive for collection, 
I discovered that the battery was dead. A quick call to your service department solved the problem. A mechanic arrived with a charger, took the car away, 
and everything else was dealt with efficiently over the phone. The car was returned to me later in the day, serviced, 
recall issue fixed, and with a new battery. Reynold's Garage kept me safe at this difficult time, 
minimized client contact for their mechanics, and provided top-notch customer service. Couldn't be happier.

My husband and I joined the Subaru family last week and bought a 2020 Crosstrek. The buying experience was amazing and so easy. We worked with Sandy and she was great. The car I had my eyes set on wasn't even in the state yet when we called but she worked with us to get it here. We test drove it Wednesday and Friday the hubby signed all the papers. It was a great buying experience and we would highly recommend them. I actually am sending my grandparents their way lol.
 
The car has been great so far. We are so in love. Thanks Reynolds for a great experience even with everything going on. The Birdsey Family

I BYOC (Brought My Own Chair), sat in the sun and read while my Subaru was being serviced. All transactions were done in accordance with the 'social distancing' guidelines and 
the experience was outstanding!

We don't buy cars often and the thought of walking into a large, generic, car dealer has been enough to make us want to never buy a new car again. Recently we were speaking with a friend about the possibility of buying a new Subaru and she said "You've GOT to go out to Lyme- Reynolds". This is not the closest dealer to where we live but thought we'd give it a shot, what we found was well worth the trip. This dealership is a family run business with a very long history. Upon our arrival we were not hunted down in the parking lot, but rather, we went inside and asked to meet with a sales person. That alone made a huge difference in our experience. The entire process went on in a very professional, non-pushy, manner where we found it very easy to negotiate a fair deal. Also, looking out over the CT River and getting to pet the resident Golden Retriever as we spoke with our salesperson didn't hurt! An overall, surprisingly, good experience -we highly recommend.

Good experience. Annette was exceptional. The facility was very nice and appears complete in all respects. Reynolds was not the closest Subaru dealer to me but the staff made the trip worth the extra miles.
Marlene C. 3/30/20
I am grateful for this service of pick up and drop off in these times of social distancing. 
( and a secure and safe feeling of the meticulous detail to cleaning and wiping down afterwards as well). 
It's just another example of why we have chosen to buy and service our cars through Reynolds's Subaru. You guys go above and beyond, thank you! 
Stay safe and happy,

Thanks for coming to our rescue when our battery failed in the Old Lyme Shopping Center and for speedily installing a new battery. 
Nice to know we can count on you in a pinch.

Everyone thinks that going to a Car Dealer for service is more expensive than all other garages. 
Well, I had gotten a few estimates for replacement of a head gasket and timing belt for my 2010 Forester and 
thought why don't I try Reynolds Subaru and see how much higher the cost would be. 
I got in contact with Marcia in the service department and told her what I needed. Well to my surprise, 
the estimate she gave me was $600.00 less than I was previously quoted from a garage I trusted. 
So I scheduled my service appointment, got a very nice Outback to drive while my car was being fixed. 
In the end, I used the money I saved to get a little extra work done and still came out ahead. From the time I walked into Reynolds 
I was greeted by professional staff and will be taking my car there for service in the future.

Bird watching with a friend (23 species seen) while recall service was performed on my vehicle.
Was welcomed by Nora the Manager and got hugs from my favorite sales lady Jen. Great afternoon!
Oh yeah - the service was quick. Another bonus is that the appointment was made the afternoon before.
Very accommodating

I visited on February 25th because of a recall issue with the airbags. 
This was my first visit for service as I just bought my Forester in October of 2019. I cannot say enough great things about my visit. 
From the time I walked in to the time I left my experience couldn't have been better. The people are polite and professional. 
The lounge area is clean, comfortable and the coffee and selection of goodies were something I have never had anywhere in the past. Brian was so kind to me. 
When I told him I needed a refresher on how to open the sunroof he said let's go out right now and I will show you. He did just that and asked if I had any other questions. 
We have to change the clocks again this weekend and because I don't know how to do that either I guess I will be stopping in to see my friend Brian soon!!!

We bought our new Legacy Sport on Monday. Our sales person Sandy was there helping us navigate through the selection and purchase process. What a pleasurable experience. We are very pleased with the communication, honest - straight forward dialog and recomendations we experienced with the service department in the past and now are just as pleased with the sales process. Last year I loved the warm and friendly, non - intrusive atmosphere of the sales room and sales personnel when I picked up the loaner and returned it. They do it right and keep our family coming back.
  
Thanks for the great experience!

Our salesman Chris Rooke was extraordinary in his help, thoroughness, patience etc. He was a pleasure to do business with. 
Would come back to your dealership just for him and would recommend him and the dealership to anyone I know. A
ppreciated his low key approach rather than many pushy, not sincere car salesmen I experience while shopping for a new car at many other dealerships 
in the Greater Hartford area. Lovely human being and lovely dealership. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Friendly, personal service. Sandy Spencer treats you like family. You tell her what you are looking for and that is what she delivers. She doesn't push you into something you don't want. She stays in contact with you through the whole process. When purchasing your next car, go to Reynolds Subaru and ask for Sandy Spencer. You won't find a better dealer than her. TRUST me!!!! She was recommended to me by four other friends. Amazing lady.

It's been a year since we bought our 2018 XT! LOVE our car. Reynolds was an absolute game changer for us as it was not your typical dealership. The moment you step foot in the door, you get a sense of genuine salesmen. Chris R. helped us SO much; the rest of the team were also really informative and walked us through the process without it being overwhelming.

The team at Reynolds is worth the drive out to Lyme! Everyone I spoke with was friendly, welcoming and helped me navigate my first new car purchase. Sandy was so personable and helpful that it felt less like walking into a dealership and more like visiting with family (who keeps cars in their living room). Don was awesome and made the financing information easy to understand and clear through the entire purchasing process. They weren't aggressive in their sales tactics and everything offered to me felt genuinely recommended. I wasn't treated any differently for opting out of specific add-ons and my needs/financial abilities were taken into account when selecting a car and financing options. When there was an issue with my insurance, they offered me options and helped me resolve the issue so I could leave with my car that day. The service was impeccable and I will recommend Reynolds to anyone looking to buy a Subaru that want top of the line service with their new or used car (or boat)!\\

I found the vehicle I had wanted then found the sales person .( Bobbi ) who took me thru everything I needed not what most sales persons want you to think you need. When I Picked up the vehicle she took the time to sit in the vehicle and explain very clearly every function of the vehicle until I was ready to leave and gave me her personal number to call if ever I had any questions. Great Sales personal. Great Dealership, Great Prices and Great Experience. I not only left with a New Car I left with a Friend.

I was well taken care of from our first meeting to the day I picked up my new car. Bobbi was wonderful! I had to change my deposit amount midway through and she just worked it all out for me smoothly. The pace of the way the paperwork was read and explained was absolutely perfect. I understood everything and never felt like I was being lied to or unsold. Best car buying experience!

I have always felt that the customer service is their top priority. I have been a client for about 7 yrs ,in that time 3 different Foresters. I especially want to point out the following 3 employees that are fabulous.Hayden is the owner.He is very knowledgeable ,friendly helpful and patient.I see him with his employees and it's easy to notice the rapport he has established with them.This place is pretty chill. Chris ,the manager in service is also very professional ,knowledgable and patient .He is a very hard worker. Sandy Spencer is a warm, fun,kind and also very knowledgeable and soooo patient with those of us gettin' up there in age that need repeating of directions. I feel that all 3 of these people have a sense of integrity ,are able to problem solve well ,they are a true team of professionals.

Your dealership is not normal ! The sales area, the waiting section, the offices, the deck with view and even the service area is above an beyond any other dealership in New England, I put the service area last in the above statement because it is unique, Normally a dark, dirty ,foreboding area with an impossible place to stand an see. Mechanics that turn away unwilling to discuss what they are doing, even if it is your automobile they are working one,..... NOT TRUE at Reynold's Everyone is great, The place is bright and spotless, and the two roll-up entrance doors add to the technology present, If I had to find something to wish for it would be a feature I have found in some other dealerships, When the service is completed the car is passed thru a small quick car wash, I suspect the location in Hamburg Cove would make that extremely difficult to include.

Customer service includes free coffee and snacks while waiting for your car to be routinely serviced by their experts. Gorgeous location. 
I came here as they gave-me best deal and were completely fair. I made a good choice. Just relaxing in the sun. I added a photo to FB of the view from your deck.

I had the best experience buying a car at Reynolds! Jen Segal was the biggest reason why! As soon as I talked to her on the phone she understood what I wanted and made me feel comfortable because I haven't purchased a new car in 20 years. Then went I came to Reynolds and met her she listened to what was important to me and never pressured me. Her upbeat and friendly personality and her knowledge of Subarus was a definite plus! I was still car shopping and she gave me the best price! My parents came with me the second time when I purchased my Subaru Crosstrek and and met Jen and test drove.. My parents had the same JEN SEGAL experience that I did and smiled away as I did! We were amazed of how different Reynolds is from any other car dealership! My parents car shopped like I did and came back and purchased the Subaru Forester! Thank you Jen Segal for making this an unforgettable and great experience for us!

Wow! It was such a good experience. No pressure; no constant calls from Bobbi (just a gentle reminder from time to time!). She was able to answer all our questions and, if she couldn't, she would seek out the answer. Chris in finance was equally informative and helped us through what can be a stressful process. The facility itself is amazing with its environmentally-conscience design.

Hi Joe,
 
I just wanted to let you know how happy Randy and I are with our new Outback.  It feels great to be back in a Subaru again especially after the snowstorm we just had. 

We took the kids out to the movies on Saturday only to find a winter wonderland when it was time to go home.  We passed two accidents and made our way through the obstacle course of tree limbs on our ride home without a problem. (That was before the lights went out)  That is the car I remember owning a few years ago and I'm so glad to own one again.

I've attached a picture of the car as it looked when we returned from our winter wonderland adventure and I swear it's smiling.
 
If I know of anyone looking for a car, I'll do my best to send them your way.
 
Have a wonderful day!

Dear Hayden and Joe Barlow,

We just purchased our fourth Subaru from Reynolds Garage. Our salesperson, Joe Barlow, is the best. Very easy to work with and very knowledgeable about Subaru's. As always, our experience at Reynold's was low key, no pressure and thoroughly enjoyable. My new car, a 2012 Impreza is fun to drive and really feels like a sports car.  I will keep this car, as always, for at least ten to eleven years and with the excellent care I get from Subaru service, there is every likelihood that this will happen.

I have recommended any number of friends to buy a Subaru from Reynolds Garage and my hope for Hayden and all of his wonderful employees is many long and prosperous years in business.
