Very professional service. The Subaru rep, David, took time to describe what types of testing would be done and the approximate cost of tuneup when we dropped off our car. Text messages kept us informed of the progress. When we went to pick up the car, the same rep went through in detail about the tuneup. We were most impressed and pleased with the rep and the experience. We have not had such good experience with getting our vehicles serviced. Thank you!

I had a fantastic experience at this Subaru store. The manager and sales associate were great to work with—extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the entire process. They took the time to thoroughly explain everything and answered all of my questions clearly, making sure I felt comfortable and informed at every step. I genuinely felt that they cared about helping me find a vehicle that suited my needs rather than just making a sale. From start to finish, they walked me through the process with professionalism and care. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a new vehicle.

I was happy with my Subaru service. I had an oil change. They checked my tread thickness, filters, brake pads, etc, so that I know what to watch for in the future. They informed me but did not push to have this taken care of today. They did a good job.

Josh, my service manager was very friendly.
He made sure to touch base with me throughout the time I was there. If I had a question, Josh gladly answered it. I felt as if I were treated with respect. Seemed as if everyone there was very friendly and helpful. I feel confident that I can call on them for service any time I need it.
Good dealership.

Great experience. Luis was so patient, very easy to work with and made it a calm purchase not an anxious experience when you are spending money on a new car. Subaru has been wonderful in follow up, making sure we know the features of the car and who to reach out to if we needed assistance. Very satisfied with our first Subaru purchase.

Excellent customer service at Penz Subaru! Came in late in day with an alternator hard-down failure that luckily occurred while I was at Shoppes on Maine. They provided a brand new 2025 Outback as a loaner vehicle on the spot at no cost. They had my car repaired before 5PM the next day, at an incredibly fair price, and had even run my car through their car wash, also at no charge. I shared with one of my relatives that if they are looking for a car, they should buy from Penz Subaru if for no other reason than the service. I hope they are able to continue this level of service in perpetuity. I was quite frankly amazed.

We just picked up our 2025 Subaru Forester Hybrid two days ago and the next day we drove to central Wisconsin for a family Easter weekend. We enjoyed the experience totally! We enjoyed experiencing all the safety features while driving both four and two lane roads. And we laughed when I accidentally turned on the heated seats that weren’t needed at the time. We forgot where the button was to open the gas tank and looked it up in the manual. When I drove the car home we had a heavy rain storm and I really appreciated the automatic speed of the windshield wipers. Also, we truly appreciated our salesman Alex and the finance manager Meg. We went for all the bells and whistles for this hybrid vehicle and are so glad we did. We feel very safe and we love it. Thank you Subaru for making a hybrid SUV. This coming from a former Toyota Prius owner. Teri & Michael Kenowski

Excellent experience with this dealership. I have purchased multiple cars here, and have been a customer for over a decade. Luis in sales always finds a way to get the best deal, and the service department is exceptional. My latest forester recently needed some work, and once again, John in service, made the experience easy, convenient and transparent. Subarus are great to begin with, but this dealership makes driving them even better.

David P. Is an excellent Service Rep. Kept me informed during the entire process and made everything very clear. Both while waiting at the dealership and via text/phone. Recommendations are just that and the final decision is mine without pressure. He and the service tech did a lot of research and extra work into a warranty issue as well. Waiting area is set up w work stations if needed. This dealership welcomes dogs both inside and a play area outside. They even let my dog ride the courtesy car home when an unexpected issue arose, so bring your own towel just in case, although I’m sure they’d spring for a disposable seat cover.

We had a great experience at Penz Automotive Group (Subaru) in Rochester, MN. Our sales person was Elliot and he was AMAZING! No high pressure sales…just a genuine interest in what we wanted/needed and a desire to ensure he got us into the right vehicle.
It’s now been about a month since our purchase (a 2026 Subaru Forester - Wilderness Edition) so we’ve completed the sale, completed financing, and had our first experience with the parts department (for some add-ons), and Service Center (for installation).
It’s the little things that make a big difference and Penz Automotive Group (Subaru) in Rochester leaves no stone unturned. From door attendants who greet you and open the door for you every time you visit, to service center employees who make themselves available to you during their lunch — this place is top notch! If the rest of our ownership experience continues this way, I can confidently say that our first Subaru purchase won’t be our last!
Thank you for making car buying less stressful, virtually hassle-free, and (dare I say) somewhat enjoyable! Keep up the outstanding work!!

Collins was the service writer I worked with, and I am deeply impressed. Subaru begins with a series of questions, pinpointing your tastes, values, and desires. You are guided, not led, through this process. My answers mattered. When other dealerships made me feel poor, unimportant, and like they were doing ME a huge favor, Collins and the team at Rochester Subaru made me feel important, and they assured me that they will help me find a way to meet my needs and desires. They made this not only easy, but enjoyable. They have a great product and an even better team. And fun sidebar: a customer came in to leave them a tub of homemade cookies while I was there. They have, clearly, made an impression on more than just me. Even if you are Subaru-skeptical, I think you should at least shop here once the next time you are looking for a car, just so you know how a customer can and should be treated.

What really stood out was how easy he made the whole process. everything was smooth, transparent, and stress-free. It’s clear he cares about his customers and wants them to leave happy. I would definitely recommend asking for Matt H. if you’re in the market for a vehicle!

Car shopping can be stressful. But Subaru of Rochester made it a remarkably pleasant experience. The staff we dealt with included Jacob Hansen, Jeremiah Steege, Collins Kiyaga, and Amy Anderson. They were all friendly and professional. Jacob and Collins in Sales patiently explained the features of the 2026 Forester we were interested in. Amy discussed the assistance offered to learn about all the technology that comes with vehicles these days. Finally, Jeremiah went through all of the optional protection packages and processed our paperwork efficiently.
Unlike many dealers, Jacob at Subaru of Rochester immediately provided us with the out-the-door price via email before we drove the two hours to Rochester. Also, there were no forced dealer add-ons, which still happens at other dealers. Getting the OTD price and no forced add-ons were HUGE to us!
If you're looking for a vehicle, we highly recommend Subaru of Rochester. They earned our business with the perfect balance of promoting their products, but with a low-pressure approach.
Great job to all!

I just purchased a 2025 Subaru Outback Limited from Subaru of Rochester and I love it! Elliot was great to work with in purchasing my new car. I worked with him on the purchase of my 2018 Subaru that I traded in. Love the Outback!!
I would recommend Subaru of Rochester to everyone!

I had a really great experience at Subaru of Rochester. From start to finish, everyone was friendly, professional, and easy to work with.
I recently purchased a Hyundai Sonata, and the whole process was smooth and stress-free. A big shoutout to Matt for his amazing customer service—he was patient, knowledgeable, and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. He truly went above and beyond to make everything easy.
Thank you to Matt and the entire team for such a positive experience. I really appreciate it and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a hassle-free car buying experience!

I don't normally have my 2019 Subaru Forester serviced by Rochester Subaru. But this was something that was covered by an Extended Warranty. I am very pleased with the service I received. I was treated like a human being as opposed to a number and "one more job we have to get done today." John in the service department was especially helpful - getting me a loaner car since the job was going to take all day. They recommended two other service items but I was not prepared to do them so I said no thanks. That was the end of it, no pressure, no BS about the car blowing up the minute I drove it off the lot if they didn't fix those other items. They said the work would be covered by the extended warranty and it was. There was no "surprise" you do have to pay postage on the parts or something equally ridiculous. I would highly recommend Rochester Subaru service.

Top notch dealer. Loved the low pressure sales approach. This was my first purchase at this dealer and will definitely be returning. The GM, salesman, and business office manager were all very professional. At this dealership I feel you are truly a valued customer and not just a number

I purchased my 2026 Subaru Ascent from Subaru of Rochester completely over the phone and online, and it couldn’t have been easier. The team was responsive, transparent, and made the entire process smooth from start to finish. Everything was clearly explained, paperwork was simple, and the vehicle arrived exactly as promised.
Highly recommend Subaru of Rochester for anyone looking for a hassle‑free, remote buying experience. And a special shoutout to Jake Fratzke, the General Manager — his leadership truly shows. Jake went above and beyond to make sure my online purchase experience was smooth, transparent, and stress‑free. It’s clear he runs a top‑tier dealership that genuinely cares about its customers.

Everybody was very congenial and helpful. You do need more than one person who does the final sales pitch, signing papers, and accepting payment. Granted, we had a longer wait than what is usual, but you should have someone else who can also do this part. We had to wait over two and a half hours to do the final step before we were completely finished and could leave.

Got to work with Elliot last week. He was helpful without being pushy and was able to get me a fair value on my trade in and got me into a nice 2024 Crosstrek. The whole process was pretty easy and Elliot was responsive to questions. If I had to complain about anything, I guess an owners manual and a full tank of gas when I picked it up would have been nice, but those are pretty minor things in my opinion. I wouldn't hesitate to do more business here in the future.
*Edit* The owners manual actually shipped to my house a few days after I took the car, so that's pretty cool. Thanks again!

This was my first time buying a car and I’m so glad I went the Subaru route. I worked with Elliot who helped me purchase the Forester Hybrid. Elliot and the folks at Subaru were transparent the whole time and made the process easy and stress free. It made purchasing my first car more meaningful and I’m grateful to everyone who was part of that process!!

I used to go to Dahl Subaru in La,Crosse because it is close, but after a few bad experiences I go to Penz. They take care of everything like its supposed to be. It is worth the extra hour of travel for me to go to Roch. And be taken care of like a proper subaru owner. Thanks Penz team.
