What does the Subaru warranty cover?

I’m debating between buying a Subaru or a Toyota and comparing warranties. I know Toyota has one of the best-in-class warranties. What’s included?

Comparing vehicle warranties is a great way to determine future car expenses. The Subaru Limited Warranty covers all parts in your Subaru and guarantees they are free from defects for three years or 36,000 miles.
Along with this comprehensive bumper-to-bumper warranty, all new Subarus come with:
  • Wear Item Limited Warranty (3 years/36,000 miles): Covers replacement of wear items such as brake pads/shoe linings, clutch linings, and wiper blades.
  • Powertrain Limited Warranty (5 years/60,000 miles): Covers the major powertrain system, including the engine.
  • Seat Belt Lifetime Limited Warranty (Lifetime): This is the only lifetime warranty offered by Subaru and covers your vehicle’s seat belts and all related components that may fail to function correctly.
  • Rust Perforation Limited Warranty (5 years/unlimited miles): Covers body panels that have been perforated by corrosion.
  • Hybrid System Limited Warranty (8 years/100,000 miles): Covers repairs for plug-in hybrid vehicle components, including high-voltage batteries.
Subaru offers a pretty comprehensive warranty comparable to the industry standard, but if you’re looking for more protection, consider upgrading your
