Last time I had my car at the Subaru dealer (other than to buy the odd part from the Parts Dept) was the day I bought it new in June 2014. During my "check-out" with the salesman, I was told the car had "Subaru's award-winning AWD" and that I could count on it to keep me safe on the road. Needless-to-say, my faith in Subaru-trained employees took a significant dive that day.

Coupled with two separate incidents at two other Subaru dealers where the respective Parts Managers tried to sell me blue OEM oil filters for their EZ36D engines, arguing with me that the BRZ has an "H6" engine, I have since given up and order most everything online using the same parts fiches that apparently greatly befuddle the actual, trained employees of this company.

All of this is to say, at least in the Midwestern US, you'll be better off taking care of your own car, probably even for warranty work.
