Since there are so many Subaru dealers and they're all independently owned, some may be different when it comes to their used car's postsale service. Generally buying a used car (esp. non-CPO) from the dealership is much like buying a car off the street from a private party but there's exceptions such as CARMAX which have their own service departments.

At my store we only service Subarus. We are a dealership group with multiple brands so used cars that need pre-sale inspections would be brought to the service department of the respective automaker, and if it's a brand we don't own we actually just take it to an independent mechanic lol.

For postsale service we wouldn't do it if it is a brand we don't own. Example we don't own a Honda store so the used Honda owners have to take it to a Honda dealer or independent shop for their routine service.

I'm curious now if anyone has successfully got their FR-S/86 serviced at a Subaru dealer during Service Department Business Hours.
