Chips Service Center

Have a Subaru? Go to Chip's. Chip will also give you advice on when to use the dealer (rarely, but there are warranty repair times). I will always have a Subaru so I can go to Chip's. Thank you, Chip.

Chip is perhaps the most ethical business person I've yet encoutered (definately the best Suburu guy in Maine!) I will drive from Boston just to have him work on my car (when its safe to do so!) He employeees a great crew and I wish there were more shops like his!

Chip is great! He tells you what you really need to get fixed, and what can wait. He fixed the trunk latch on my Impreza, and when it broke again a year later he fixed it for free. The only problem is that he is so popular that sometimes it can be hard to get an appointment

A friend recommend Chip's to me sevearl years ago and I've been thankful. For both scheduled check-ups and emergency visits, Chip has been clear, informative, and helpful. They are very upfront about the cost, what needs to be done, potential auto problems that I might encounter in the future. It is a great operation!

We have owned Subarus since the 70's. We are now up to Subaru 10 and 11. Chip is a factory trained, Subaru specialist (sorry other vehicles). He works on many Subarus, keeps up with Subaru standards and changes, stays abreast of recalls and recommends when to prepare for maintenance needs. Not only is he a gifted mechanic be he has good knowledge of Subaru warranty language. If it needs to be handled by a dealer because the repair falls under the warranty, he sends you there. Our '03 and '04 fell into a category of bad seals and oil leakage. With his guidance, Subaru covered both engine rebuilds and extended the warranty to 100,000 miles. Compare his prices to a dealer's and you'll be shocked at how reasonable he is. Yes, you must plan ahead for regular maintenance but should you have an emergency, he'll make time. A phone call is made to you once the vehicle is diagnosed then you decide whether to have him do the work or not. He gives the cost at this time so there are no surprises. Always prompt, vehicle is in excellent condition upon completion. Chip and his staff are dependable and honest.

My only regret about Chip's is that they work on Scoobarus only. I wish I could take our Scion to them too. I echo other reviewers' comments: this shop offers consistently great value for money and competency. I have no reason to doubt their honesty and they're certainly very, very knowledgeable about Subarus.
