AWD_Rules3830 Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Do Subie dealers give you a loaner when your car is in for service? I love my car ... basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fzanetti Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Depends on the dealer... By contract you don't have the right to one, Subaru is not a premium brand like Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Lexus etc... However if you are taking your car to the same dealer you bought it from, chances are you will get a loaner if the service is major and not just an oil change....

Scooby Fan Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I deal with the same dealer ALL the time....Specialty Motors in North Vancouver BC.....They have ALWAYS given me a loaner, even for short term visits of a few hours. GEE??? Maybe that is the kinda service that keeps me going back??? They always use Subies for loaners....mostly Foresters and Imprezas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laz Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I get a loaner for anything, including an oil change. Bad thing is that the loaner is not a subie, but a rent-a-car. Is all good though. They only give loaners to people that purchased from the dealership though. X --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEE??? Maybe that is the kinda service that keeps me going back??? They always use Subies for loaners....mostly Foresters and Imprezas. You get that service because you are so close to Carter Subaru in Seattle. They have one of the biggest rental fleets out there of all subies of all kinds, outbacks (including the most expensive) imprezas, foresters, legacys. I heard that they had a couple of STI's for a while and now B9's in their fleet.

rallispec Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 depends on the service at most dealers.. i've never had a loaner car given to me (from any dealer) when i take my car in for general maintenance (ie: oil change...) however, everytime i've ever taken any car in for any kind of warranty related service - i've always gotten a loaner car.

rallispec Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 i've gotten a forester and a legacy 2.5i from the subaru dealer. the Mazda dealer gave my fiance a crappy ford focus when we took hers in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoldonSubie Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Last year I had two major repairs done to my 05, OBXT. First my center differential needed to be replaced and second my dashboard needed to be replaced. Both repairs involved extended periods where I was without my car. And both times I was given a base, 05 LGT as a loaner. Basic cars that only had the 5EAT as far options go. Both loaners had the window stickers in the glove box and they clearly stated "Dealer loaner special" or someting along that line right on the sticker.
