Excelent service. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about Suabaru needs. I plan to keep my 2000 Outback a few more years and Suburb is helping me do that. Very easy to make appointments and a free loianer car to boot. Only complaint I would have is that the loaner I got could have used an interior clean up,vacume up the interior please.

The folks here are finest kind - friendly, efficient, honest. The work is always top notch, and finished when they say it will be. Early morning (7-9) weekday oil changes with no waiting, loaners, and they go the extra mile!

I had been taking my Subaru to the dealer for years for all my oil change needs and was paying far too much. I was fed up. After all it's only an oil change. I called Subaru Service and inquired about their oil change services and was surprised to find that the first visit would be free. Yep, FREE! Wow, who does anything for free anymore? I figured it was worth checking out. I showed up the very next day and only waited 20 mins for my car to be done. They were professional, affordable, knowledgeable, & fast! I'll be going to these guys from now on!!

I took my car there for the first time for a valve job and head gasket replacement. It was an expensive job, but there were two things I really appreciated. (1) They worked with me on the price and it was more than fair. (2) a few days later my radiator hose blew a leak. it 'could have' been related to the repair, so they took the initiative, paid to have my car towed from my home to the shop, diagnosed the problem and took care of me without any additional charge. They were honorable and keep me happy even with a loaner car. I HIGHLY recommend this shop for their honesty and integrity. Even the tow truck driver recommended them!!

Over priced, over charged. Friendly staff but that will cost you.

I will NEVER EVER in a million years bring my car to be repaired by these people! They are rude and dishonest. I am trying to sell my subaru......had a pre-sale inspection done at Smart Services (best subaru shop EVER) and everything checked out ok. A potential buyer wanted to get the car checked out and chose this shop. After I got the car back from them doing a "visual inspection" the car was making a horrible detached exhaust sound. Suburb Services denies touching anything, but I have the paperwork to prove that there was nothing wrong with the car going into the shop. Instead of owning their mistake and offering to fix whatever they did to it, they completely denied everything and proceded to make me feel like I am in the wrong and that my car is a big piece of junk. If you like being talked to like you're the biggest idiot in the whole world and have money to throw at the birds, bring your car to this shop.......but if you want to go to a place that is respectful and honest and has fair pricing steer clear from this horrible place.

I've taken my Subaru Forester to Suburb Service ("All we do is Subaru") for at least 7 years now, and I've found them to be reliable, responsive, and more than fair. A few examples out of many I could cite: When I said I'd like to replace the failed clock above the rear-view mirror, the owner said, "You don't want to do that. The labor's too expensive. Just buy a little clock and stick it on the dash." When I'd been driving with my emergency brake slightly engaged, leading to brake fluid overheating and a loss of brake power, I called Suburb Service; the owner did a quick diagnostic over the phone, told me to stay put, called a tow truck for me, and had the car towed to their shop. When I had semi-flat tire that became totally flat as I was driving to a tire store, I called SS; the owner and a mechanic came to me to change to my spare so that I could continue to the tire store. Incredibly, she didn't even charge me for the personal service, simply saying that I'm a good customer! When I replace this Forester, one major reason to buy another Subaru will be that I can still go to Suburb Service!
