My oil light came on occasionally on long trips when oil wasn’t low. Dennis P knew a lot about this issue with Subaru Foresters and helped me know how to manage it in the future. He was very helpful!

Dennis did an exceptional job helping me to look into some issues I was having with my Prius. I am still dealing with a previous repair from a different “facility,” but I am extremely happy with the service I received and I will be back. Thank you!!!
