  • Amazing service

    5 out of 5 starsby Joy Ruckoldt on 10/28/2024

    I bought my first Subaru in 2018, and then my husband bought one. Then my sister bought one. I love my car, but even more than that I love that I can stop at my Subaru dealer, pull into the service area, and immediately have someone helping me. Whether it was an issue with my radio or with my tire pressure, I was in and out. I have brought my car here for all of its service needs, from oil changes to new breaks. Every time, I have been offered a loaner car, even for a two-hour job. When my leather seat began tearing, they replaced it. I have honestly never been happier with a dealership or service. Plus they help dogs. Shout out to Derek Thomas for his awesome service!
    • Joy, Thank you so much for the AMAZING review. I am glad to hear that Derek always takes great care of you, he has been taking wonderful care of our customers since we opened Brilliance Subaru in 2014. We appreciate the business and look forward to seeing you next time. Jim DaLuga General Manager

    5 out of 5 starsby Pamela on 10/09/2024

    This is the best Subaru service department. I travel over 30 minutes for this reason. The department personnel, especially Derek, are professional but friendly. All involved care about their clients. They are patient to answer any and all questions. Keep up the good work!!

  • Rear Brake Service

    5 out of 5 starsby Rear Brake Service on 10/06/2024

    I was not liking my Crosstrek when I had to take it in for service at the dealership I bought it from in 2021. I had to try another dealership. So I picked Brilliance in Elgin. I was treated seriously and was constantly updated on the progress of the repair and the bill was also fair in price. I told Kevin Piklor my service adviser after the repairs were done that I will be back for future service and maintenance. Great honest work and a job well done and a huge kudos to the technician who performed the work.
    • Rear Brake Service, Thank you so much for the AMAZING review. We truly appreciate the business and we will continue to work hard to keep you coming back to Brilliance Subaru. Jim DaLuga General Manager

  • Great Staff!

    5 out of 5 starsby Christopher Jacobs on 09/19/2024

    I drove from Rockford to the shop to get my oil changed only to find out I was a day early. Total brain fart by me! Still, the staff was quite accommodating and squeezed me in anyway! Such a thoughtful thing to do!!!

  • Dashboard error codes

    5 out of 5 starsby Grateful Fred on 09/11/2024

    Without an appointment, I showed up to have some error codes looked at. The service rep (Derek) was kind and had a tech look into the issue right away. As it was late in the day, they couldn't complete the repair (Thermo Control Valve), but without asking, I was given a loaner (a nice 2024 Outback) to drive home. The repairs were made under extended warranty at no cost. Brilliance Subaru went above and beyond my expectations. I'm a very happy customer.
    • Grateful Fred, Thank you so much for the AMAZING review. I am glad to hear that Derek took great care of you, he has been providing fantastic customer service since we opened Brilliance Subaru in 2014. We look forward to your next visit. Jim DaLuga General Manager

  • Excellant service

    5 out of 5 starsby Matt S on 09/10/2024

    I just wanted to give a shout out to Kim. After my oil change and battery replacement she found a problem with my throttle charger and quickly had it replaced at no charge saying it’s an issue that has been occurring often when batteries are replaced. Thanks Kim

  • Road Trip Emergency - Brilliance Subaru Saved The Day

    5 out of 5 starsby DO on 09/05/2024

    6 hours into our 22 hour drive, when the cruise control shut off and all the dashboard lights came on. Googled “Subaru Dealers Near Me”, and Brilliance was 8 minutes away. Drove right into the service area and explained our predicament. Out-of-towners 6 hours from home and 7 hours from our hotel. Service Department got us in right away, and got the computer on it. Turns out it was a part that was covered under a Subaru issued extended warranty that we weren’t aware of. Service Department offered us a loaner (but again, from out of town, wouldn’t have known where to go) so we declined. Drove off the lot 3 hours later with vehicle repaired at no charge to us. Office called the next day to follow up with us to make sure our service went okay. Superb customer service. We will be forever grateful to the Service Department at Brilliance for being there for us in our time of need and getting us back on the road so quickly.
    • DO, Thank you very much for the AMAZING review! I am so happy that the issue happened so close to the dealership, and that we were able to get you back on the road on the same day. I hope your trip ended well. Jim DaLuga General Manager

    Had an emergency appt called at 7am Friday Aug 30. Had an appt for 8:30 am with car running crappy and dying out and engine light among other lights they had me diagnosed and a loaner with in 30 minutes! Yay it was Labor Day holiday and I’m a groomer so slammed at work. They got me in and out so quick. Ty!
