TLC for All Your Subaru Needs in Shingle Springs

September 15th, 2023

You want your vehicle to receive the care it deserves whenever you need to stop in for routine maintenance, and knowing you've left your Subaru in the hands of Subaru experts can knock off some of the anxiety about a repair. From minor things like an oil change to something a little more complex like brake pads, you want the service done right the first time to avoid problems. When you choose to take your car to a private mechanic or a general parts shop, you run the risk of your ride not receiving the care it deserves because these technicians are not Subaru-savvy. Someone working at a corner mechanic shop or big box name might be able to handle the maintenance or repair, but the unique mechanics inside your ride are not their concern. They will handle the task with whichever parts are on hand, and while they can certainly get the job done if they are not skilled in the ins and outs of Subaru engineering your vehicle might need additional service or maintenance much sooner than you think.

While anyone can learn basic maintenance and repairs, if you aren't a handy DIY-er, you want an expert to care for your Subaru when it's out of your hands. At Shingle Springs Subaru we pride ourselves on having Subaru trained and certified technicians working in our service center, meaning they've been schooled in the ins and outs of Subaru engineering and have a unique skillset to deal with the intricacies inside your ride that might be new and cumbersome to a jack-of-all-trades. Even simple maintenance like an oil change or tire replacement can be handled by a Subaru expert, as the parts and accessories utilized will ultimately need to mesh with the mechanics already inside your ride. A general service center will use generic parts and accessories, so your maintenance or repair may be short term instead of long-lasting.

Trained by Subaru

To work at a Subaru-approved service center like Shingle Springs Subaru, technicians must be trained in the specifics of Subaru engineering. That means the experts working in our service center have a unique skillset to work with Subaru vehicles, and understand some of the unique design elements like the flat BOXER^® engine so many of our vehicles are known to utilize, as well as Subaru-exclusive safety and driver assist features like the intuitive EyeSight^® suite of driver assist technology. Another service center may have knowledge on these elements but not an in-depth understanding on what goes into each feat of engineering. For a technician whose skill is honed to Subaru, your vehicle deserves a Subaru-trained expert. If you have questions or concerns before or after a service appointment, our technicians can always chat with you to explain all the jargon that goes into routine maintenance and repairs.

Subaru and You

When we care for your ride at Shingle Springs Subaru, we put the best quality of care into your ride. That includes using parts and accessories designed to specifically meld with the mechanics already inside your vehicle. That's why our service center and parts department only utilize OEM parts and accessories, so the same great quality that your Subaru started out with goes back into your ride with each maintenance appointment or repair. At the end of the day we want to ensure your Subaru receives the quality of care it deserves, and that extends from our dedicated team all the way to the parts and accessories that reside in your ride for miles down the road. If you aren't sure what maintenance your vehicle currently needs, or something more concerning arises and you want a Subaru expert to take a look, we are always available to chat here in Shingle Springs by phone or in person. If you think the issue is an in-depth concern, we recommend calling ahead to schedule an appointment so the technicians have ample time to dedicate to your ride.

We invite you to take advantage of our service center and parts department when you stop in. If you think the service will be short or you're waiting for a technician, we have complimentary coffee for you to enjoy as you pass the time as well as connected Wi-Fi. If you have a four-legged furry friend that goes everywhere with you, we also offer a pet friendly lounge so everyone can rest easy while you wait.
