Peggy Martinez is always such a great service manager, and for the first time I also met Roman, who was also great to work with. I trust your reliable service, and have been a long time customer. and for the first time I also met Roman, who was also great to work with.

The work, service and attitude of employees are all excellent. I have waited for my services whenever possible and they have always finished before the allotted time given me. Work has been excel excellent. I have waited for my services whenever possible and they have always finished before the allotted time given me. Work has been excellent and employees have been helpful and informative. The only complaint I have is that, even though they have shuttle service, my home is just a couple miles too far for it. So, when I have to leave my car for a long period I have to arrange for a ride. More
Everything was great! Very nice agents. They said it would take all day but I feel like I didn’t really need to rent a car bc it was ready so early. I could have just taken a local hike / lunch And hang would take all day but I feel like I didn’t really need to rent a car bc it was ready so early. I could have just taken a local hike / lunch And hang out for a few hours. The rental car was a big boat (Dodge Challenger) and I didn’t feel comfortable driving it so I just went home. More

Battery issues - 6 month new car check up I had purchased my plug-in Crosstrek from my local Subaru dealership which was not Albany Subaru. From the first 12. hours of ownership I had continuo I had purchased my plug-in Crosstrek from my local Subaru dealership which was not Albany Subaru. From the first 12. hours of ownership I had continuous problems with it from December 17 to end of April with 330 miles on it.. It was in and out of the dealership more than it was driven by me. The local dealership said everything came back perfect. I became more and more fearful of driving it. I contacted Subaru Corporate but I brought it to my local dealership. I complained of battery issues. The local dealership said the battery tested better than new.I reached out to other Subaru owners on the internet and they told me to go to Albany Subaru for great service. So I did and I was thrilled with their listening skills and their service. Albany discovered that I had a dead cell in my 12 volt battery that was causing other issues over the months. They had the car for four days and went over every inch of it and returned it. Afterwards I got 99 miles to the gallon. No issues. I just brought it into Albany for its 6 month check up. I will always go back to Albany. They are great and I got it back quickly. More
I took my sister's Subaru into this dealer as a favor to her. I did not feel positive about this dealer from the start, but since I did not have anything solid to complain about, and my sister had been tak her. I did not feel positive about this dealer from the start, but since I did not have anything solid to complain about, and my sister had been taking her car here, I respected her wishes and took it in here. I need the ignition re-keyed. This dealer did the lazy job and simply gave me a new ignition key without matching it to the door keys. They tried to pass this off as "standard" and did not even brief me on my options or ask what I wanted. When I complained, they told me again this was "standard." I spoke to the manager several times and the best she could offer me would be to return the car to its original state. She emphasized that this would be "free of charge." This was after the car had been in the shop for 4 days. In addition, my sister had spent over $1400 servicing her car there in the past year. I found this whole process absolutely appalling! The mechanics had done a sloppy job and charged for it. They assumed that since I am a young woman I would not know any better, and when I did and spoke up, the customer service was just terrible. My sister immediately switched dealers after this experience. Not only would I NOT recommend this shop, but I would go out of my way to tell someone to avoid this crooked dealership. More
