Don't you instantly think back to your student driver days? Excitement for a broader sense of freedom, maybe mixed with a little anxiety about navigating through unknown streets.

It's the dark and dismal time of the year in Seattle, Washington to be driving your Subaru. Regardless of where you are in the Pacific Northwest - Bothell, Lynnwood, Mountain Terrace or even downtown Seattle- you need to ask yourself one thing: Are all your Subaru lights working? We see a number of Subaru's with one or more lights burnt out when they come into the shop or when we are just driving around.
