Great Service Experience I had been experiencing a recurring problem with my Tribeca and on the second visit was told to correct the problem that was in the transmission would I had been experiencing a recurring problem with my Tribeca and on the second visit was told to correct the problem that was in the transmission would cost me $1900. I had just paid $300 for new transmission fluid. Well the car wouldn't start again 3 later. It in the next morning and Ken Hanscom was on duty thankfully. He determined that my car did not have the miles on it to have this problem most cars would have over 200K miles. And I always service my vehicle with the dealership. He said he would talk to his manager. They both then got on the phone with HQ. Imagine my relief when Ken called and said that Subaru would cover costs because the transmission issue should not happen to a low mileage car! Thank you Ken, you have made me a loyal Subaru customer! More

Excellent service! I am indebted to Ken Hanscom at Herb Gordon Suburu. He has helped me take care of my 2000 Outback for over 10 years. I currently have 150,700 miles I am indebted to Ken Hanscom at Herb Gordon Suburu. He has helped me take care of my 2000 Outback for over 10 years. I currently have 150,700 miles on it. As an example last night I had trouble while I was driving. At 5:15 pm I called and talked to Ken. I told him what was going on (it smelled like something was burning) and he told me to get to my office (which was nearby) and park the car and have it towed to him. He wanted to make sure I was in a safe place. He told me that he did not think it was safe to drive it. I followed his instructions, and my car is repaired and home today. It was a good thing I didn't try to drive it any further. This is not the first time he has been helpful to me over the phone as well as in person. I am extremely grateful to Ken and to Herb Gordon Suburu mechanics for the excellent service I have received over all these years. I plan to buy a Suburu for my next car and hope to have Ken Hanscom be in charge of helping me with service for it as well. Thank you for your help all these years. More

I was looking at buying a used Subaru from a private seller when I decided to inquire whether or not the Herb Gordon Service Dept could help me out get all the facts first. Ken Hanscom was very pleasant seller when I decided to inquire whether or not the Herb Gordon Service Dept could help me out get all the facts first. Ken Hanscom was very pleasant and amenable to doing an inspection for me. He was quick to inform me after it had been done, and gave me the full run-down of the issues he found. I found it helpful that he took my personal situation into consideration when giving me advice. The inspection itself was very thorough and I appreciated that Ken took the time to personally go over it with me. More

I've been coming to Herb Gordon for nearly 20 years - first with my Dodge, and now with my last two Subarus. Even though it's a bit of a drive for me (I live less than two miles from a different Subaru D first with my Dodge, and now with my last two Subarus. Even though it's a bit of a drive for me (I live less than two miles from a different Subaru Dealer) I keep coming back for all my service needs. It's not about the coffee and donuts - although those are nice perks while waiting for my car to be serviced - it's really about the fact that all the service members, and Ken especially, listen to my concerns and do their best to explain any problems or work required and be honest and upfront about it. They've not once tried to upsell or talk me into unnecessary repairs, which constantly happens at other dealers. True, they are more expensive than independent shops, but they do the work right the first time, they stand behind what they do, and they really do look out for the customer. I can't recommend them enough. More

Dropped off 2005 Outback to fix a leaking power steering pump. Asked for an estimate to replace a torn inner booth and a timing belt replacement. Car has aproximately 58K miles. Ken called back and informed pump. Asked for an estimate to replace a torn inner booth and a timing belt replacement. Car has aproximately 58K miles. Ken called back and informed me that power steering pump was bad, both inner booths were torn, both front control arm bushings were cracked and torn, and provided estimates to replace these and the timing belt. Total was $2K+ and gave Ken the go ahead and do the work. Picked car up after work and when driving home noticed that Maintenance Light is on (which was not on when I dropped car off). Took time off from work to take car back next day and was told that an oxygen sensor was bad and that it would be replaced at no cost. When car was ready and with a little caution I opened the hood to find a tool that was left behind. Makes me wonder if car was test driven after work was done. Tool left under hood is unacceptable.
