What’s Covered Under Subaru’s Car Warranty?

If you’re considering buying a Subaru, you may want to know what the Subaru car warranty covers. While Subaru cars are already known for their incredible reliability, the manufacturer still backs them up with some of the best warranty packages in the industry. As your trusted Bay Area Subaru dealer, we’re happy to help you explore the details of the Subaru warranty.

 

Subaru Factory Warranty Coverage 

Your new Subaru comes with a factory warranty package, which ensures that your car will run as expected for years.

If something does go wrong with your Subaru car during the warranty period, it will be fixed for you free of charge. This package covers everything from the engine, to brakes, to body panels, to seatbelts. The main components of the Subaru factory warranty are bumper-to-bumper coverage and powertrain protection.

Subaru Bumper-To-bumper Warranty 

This coverage is good for 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. It covers nearly every component of your car’s mechanical and electrical system. If anything goes wrong with the covered components, they will be repaired or replaced for you to keep your Subaru running smoothly.

Subaru Powertrain Warranty

The powertrain protection is good for 5 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. It covers your car’s engine, transmission, and all-wheel drivetrain. This includes things like the engine block together with its internal parts, cylinder heads, oil pump, water pump, gears, timing belts, and gaskets.

Subaru Extended Warranty Options

Subaru offers a solid factory warranty for new cars, but the factory warranty expires after 3–5 years. The automaker offers extended warranty options for drivers who wish to prolong their warranty coverage. You can extend your Subaru warranty by up to 8 years/120,000 miles or 10 years/100,000 miles.

If you think facing unexpected repairs could interrupt your life or drain your savings, getting the extended Subaru warranty is a good idea. Subaru offers two coverage options under its extended warranty program: Classic coverage and Gold Plus coverage.

Classic Coverage 

This plan covers the powertrain, meaning everything from your car’s engine, transmission, and drivetrain system. In addition to the powertrain, this plan covers your car’s essential components, such as the cooling system, fuel system, electrical system, brakes, suspension, air conditioning, and steering.

Gold Plus Coverage

This plan includes everything in the classic plan and almost every other component of your Subaru. Think of it as an extended new car factory warranty coverage. Besides covering car repairs, the Gold Plus plan also includes reimbursements for accommodation and food expenses if a breakdown occurs when you are far from home.
