Looking to get my car looked at for some warranty issue... Any suggestion to a good friendly dealership? I don't have mods on the car... But don't want to deal with a&$hole dealers. East bay preferable

I have driven the 45 miles and Altamont pass to give my Subie business to Livermore over Modesto, which is about 10 min from home. I am not sure what they do, and I don't care about ammenities (in the waiting room) at a dealership/shop, but I wish I could bottle what it is at Livermore and take it to the CV/99 area and have a great independent/factory trained Subie shop in the Modesto area.

Amen. It's a small dealership and they're not perfect but that's where I've been going for warranty work. The service advisers own modded cars as well so they get it and try to help out modded cars as well as they can. I believe they only have one senior tech guy there that is trained/approved to work on the BRZ. So get to know him and you are set. Didn't buy car from them though and from what I've heard the sales people are slimy.

I actually bought my car there (first one they had) and got MSRP. I actually didn't have any problems with the sales guy I worked with, the finance guy on the other hand was a nightmare, tried all sorts of stuff to convince me to get all the extra stuff after I've repeatedly mentioned I just want the car.
