Would sincerely appreciate any recommendations for best independent garages in or near San Jose (Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Mountainview, Palo Alto, Menlo Park). Would like to get a quote on repair work that I’ve also priced at an authorized Subaru center/dealer in San Jose. Good independent garages can often be a better value, as noted in another discussion thread here. ---
