What does the Subaru bumper-to-bumper warranty cover?

I recently purchased a new Subaru and I’m already having some really weird problems when I’m accelerating on the highway. I don’t think it’s anything I could have done. Is this something that could be covered under my Subaru bumper-to-bumper warranty?

I’m sorry to hear that your new Subaru is not treating you as well as it should! Luckily for you, the Subaru bumper-to-bumper warranty covers virtually all parts of your vehicle, and only makes exceptions when it comes to the cause of the damage. Let’s look at that a bit more in-depth.
A bumper-to-bumper warranty is an exclusionary warranty meaning that its fine print only lists the parts and types of damages that are not covered by the warranty. Everything else is fair game. Here are some of the Subaru bumper-to-bumper warranties exclusions:
  • Regular maintenance
  • Natural wear and tear
  • Damages resulting from improper maintenance or repairs
  • Malfunctions related to unauthorized aftermarket modifications
Basically, if the damage or fault can be traced back to a manufacturing or workmanship error, then your Subaru bumper-to-bumper warranty should cover the repair. Just make sure that you’re still within the three-year/36,000-mile limit of your Subaru warranty.
It sounds like your Subaru woes may be easily covered by that warranty, but it’s never a bad idea to set aside some extra cash for future repairs that are not covered. Start by revisiting your
