They can't fix non working Eyesight I took my Forester to fix the Eyesight that quit working. The service manager said it is caused by a non-Sabaru brand replacement windshield that was I took my Forester to fix the Eyesight that quit working. The service manager said it is caused by a non-Sabaru brand replacement windshield that was installed and so he refused to work on and fix the Eyesight. He said I have to change the windshield to a Subaru brand glass first before he would work on it. Upon checking, I found this would cost over $1000. Safeco, my insurance company approved the windshield replacement, but said that I didn't tell them that I wanted a Subaru windshield, as if I was supposed to know that. They also warantee their work only if it is done at one of their approved glass shops using Safelite windshields. The Eyesight worked fine for two years after the windshield replacement, and so I don't believe the windshield is the cause of the Eyesight failure. If the Subaru service dealer would just fix the broken Eyesight, my car would be fine again. But now I have a new Subaru with no cruise control and nothing I can do about. I am sorry that I bought the car in the first place. Without a cruise control I can't even sell the car or trade it in. More
Air-bag recall service Kendall Subaru was very friendly to us and gave us a loaner car for the few hours that it took to get the air-bag swapped out for our Outback. I ha Kendall Subaru was very friendly to us and gave us a loaner car for the few hours that it took to get the air-bag swapped out for our Outback. I had read lots of negative reviews about Kendall Subaru before going there, but most of what was written didn't happen with us. We were greeted warmly and treated well by the staff despite us buying the car elsewhere. Thankfully they weren't mean or condescending, nor did they attempt to trick or deceive us. The only nit-pick was that they left the dash a little dirty, but it's not the end of the world. ;-) Overall, a very pleasant experience at Kendall Subaru. We definitely shop there for our next Subaru. More
Service with a hitch. I went to the dealership to have a brake lamp recall done. I explained that my 2015 Forester was making a front end noise.

I asked if they had time to look at it, I'd be grateful as I was from Roseburg. They sent a mechanic, Dan, as a ride a long and he diagnosed an axle was bad. I was given a loaner car (very nice) and told to come back the next day. I called the next day and asked that all the computer updates be done and if there were any problems to please phone me. I drove to the dealership and my service advisor, Brandon, asked me what I was doing there. He told me that the car was not ready as a part was on order. I was upset as I had just drove over an hour there and no one bothered to call me. Long story made short, my car had the axle replaced, the transmission replaced, front oil pump replaced, and the original recall done. I am now very leery about Subaru's in general. I was told the new transmission is only covered for approximately 25,000 miles as that is the remainder of my 100,000 warranty. I think that new transmission should be covered by the warranty for another 100,000 as the CVT transmission is a huge problem. Honestly we will probably be dumping this Subaru in the future and staying away from this brand. The work was done well and I had a rental free of charge which were both nice. More

False claim of battery needing charged My wife took her Subaru Outback in for a safety recall. They did the recall work, but also told her that the battery needed replaced and wanted to do My wife took her Subaru Outback in for a safety recall. They did the recall work, but also told her that the battery needed replaced and wanted to do it that day. She told them she’d take it to our usual (honest) car place, B&G Auto Repair. We took it there and they said the battery was fine, no work was needed, and didn’t charge us a dime. Kendall’s dishonesty has lost a customer for their car service department (I used to take my Prius there regularly) and I will also no longer patronize their car dealership either. Bad form, Kendall.

Would not recommend for any service work. I brought my Legacy in for a safety recall (which can only be done at the dealership). To my knowledge, the work was completed satisfactorily . I was I brought my Legacy in for a safety recall (which can only be done at the dealership). To my knowledge, the work was completed satisfactorily . I was advised that they would need my car for most of the day but received a call less than 2 hours after dropping it off saying it was ready. When I picked it up I observed that the passenger front seat had been moved as far forward as it goes, but I did not try to return it to it's normal position til the next morning. When I tried to move it back, it would not move. I looked under the seat and it appeared the pair of flip flops that it keep under the front edge of the seat was jammed in the seat mechanism. I called the dealership and was told to drop by and they get the flip flops out. In the meantime a friend removed the flips flops but the seat would still not move. I had my friend take my car in the next day, they looked at the seat and said the seat had been broken when it arrived the previous day and they were not responsible for it. This is absolutely untrue. The seat was functioning perfectly and was not moved as forward as it would go ( you can't even get into the seat in that position) when I left it the day before. But, for $1100 plus labor--they could fix it for me, which I declined. My friend then drove the car directly back to me and as luck would have it had a gouge in the rear bumper, which it had not had a few hours prior. The only place the car had been was to the Subaru dealership. Hmmmmm..... I was warned by a dealership employee when I took it in for the recall work that they have a lot of accidents in their small parking lot. Well, that much proved to be true. Everyone I spoke too was very polite, but they broke my car and refused take responsibility. More
