Subaru Forester service in Northern Virginia
Subaru's compact all-wheel-drive SUV, popular with all-weather drivers. We pick yours up, service it, and bring it back the same day.
Servicing Northern Virginia since 1969.
The Forester is built for people who don't want to think about the weather. All-wheel drive, good visibility, and enough room for the dog and the gear. Drivers tend to hold onto them, and they take the daily routine in stride.
On the Foresters we see, fluid services and brakes come up most, with the suspension and steering close behind. All-wheel drive puts steady work through the drivetrain, and that carries into how the ride and the brakes wear. We watch the A/C and heating too. Everything gets a look during the Handled Check, and nothing moves forward until you approve it by text.
Staying on schedule
Keeping your Forester on schedule.
Your Forester follows Subaru's Mileage-based schedule, with service due at set mileage milestones. We keep it on schedule so you don't have to track it.
Subaru generally recommends an oil change service every 6,000 miles or 6 months, but the right schedule depends on your model year and how you drive. Check your owner's manual or your maintenance light, or tell us your mileage and we'll confirm what's due before any work begins.
