The local Subaru franchise has a new owner.

Hicks Family Subaru is now open in Corpus Christi. The Hicks family bought the Subaru franchise and became an active dealer on Nov. 28. It was purchased from Corpus Christi Subaru, which is under state investigation for dozens of title complaints, according to the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles.

The dealership will remain at the same location off South Padre Island Drive near Carroll Lane. The Hicks family is well known in the local car business. It has the Mercedes, Infiniti and Nissan car franchises.

KRIS 6 News called the Hicks Family Subaru on Thursday to seek comment for this story. Those calls were not returned.
