An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Subaru phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Subaru staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.

The least busy time to call

The least busy day to call Subaru is Friday. The most busy day to call is Tuesday. Again, this is based on a sample of 671 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold

We measured the shortest hold times to be on Wednesday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Thursday.

The best time to call

In summation, the best day to call Subaru is Friday. This is not the day with the shortest wait on hold in the phone system, but we still recommend it for its ideal combination of low call volume and short hold times. Plus we believe that Subaru staffs the call center well on Friday.

Calling Subaru of America is fairly simple, but it takes a long time to actually get through to talk to someone. Getting through the directory, but there's a wait time to get to the customer service agent and that is annoying. However, you can get to an agent by the end of the phone call and they can help you with your questions, so it's better than nothing. 

Of course, millions of people own Subaru vehicles across America so I can see why the wait times can be long. One other thing that's worth noting is that they keep strict hours. I tried calling a few times at my convenience when I got home from work, but they close at 5 p.m. EST sharp. That's also a bit annoying since I had to use my lunch break to call, but it is what it is. 

I called about an issue I was having with my Subaru and I wanted to see if my warranty program would cover it. I imagine there are lots of people calling for that type of issue, but I bet a lot of other people call with financing issues or issues with their lease. In fact, that's probably what makes up the majority of calls, but things like recalls could also account for some. 

When I first called, a friendly recorded message thanked me for calling Subaru of America and then stated the line's business hours. It then told me, "If you know the extension you are trying to reach, please dial the 6-digit extension now." I didn't have an extension number since I simply had a casual warranty question, so I kept listening. 

The recording then told me, "For the customer advocacy department, press 1. For Subaru and security, press 2." I assumed that advocacy would be a better fit for my question so I chose the first option. The voice then told me to, "Wait while I transfer your call."

From there, I was transferred to hold music and a message repeated, "At this time our advocates are assisting other callers. Please stay on the line," every minute or so. It amused me that the hold music was the same as my doctor's office. I would say the wait times were about the same as well seeing as I was probably on hold for about 10 to 15 minutes. I set the phone down on speaker so I'm not precisely sure, but it did take quite a bit of time. In the end, the agent was able to answer my questions in a friendly and clear manner.
