  • When you go into a Subaru repair center look to see if they have Subarus in the parking lot/bays and if they have specialized Subaru diagnostic tools.

  • Listen to what others are saying about nearby Subaru service shops. Ask fellow Subaru enthusiasts where they have their Subaru repaired.
  • Friendly and knowledgeable Subaru service consultants and technicians that help answer your questions and make arrangements to bring your Subaru in for service is a good indicator of a quality shop.
