Scott Subaru Wins 2019 DealerRater Subaru Dealer of the Year Award

Award recognizes top U.S. and Canadian auto dealers who demonstrate excellent customer service as expressed by consumer reviews written on DealerRater

Red Deer, AB – January 25th, 2019 – Scott Subaru has been awarded a 2019 DealerRater Dealer of the Year Award, which recognizes auto dealerships across the U.S. and Canada who deliver outstanding customer service, based on consumer reviews written on DealerRater.ca.

“Car buyers have spoken and have identified Scott Subaru as the best Subaru dealer to do business with in AB,” said DealerRater General Manager Jamie Oldershaw. “The quality and number of reviews for Scott Subaru speak volumes of the top-notch experiences they provide to customers.”

The DealerRater Dealer of the Year Awards are based on reviews by new- and used-car shoppers and those who took their vehicles into dealerships for service. Reviewers evaluated Scott Subaru on its customer service, quality of work, friendliness, pricing and overall experience.

Scott Subaru has demonstrated consistently high PowerScore™ ratings for customer satisfaction, placing it in the top of its class.
