When
you buy a Subaru Certified Pre-Owned vehicle, you can feel confident that it's
ready to roll. Each vehicle is from the current or past five model years, and
has been driven fewer than 80,000 miles. Since 94% of the vehicles we've built
in the past 10 years are still on the road today,* you can expect to enjoy it
for awhile.
You'll
know your vehicle meets Subaru's high standards because each one has received a
CARFAX® Vehicle History
Report, a rigorous 152-point inspection and reconditioning wherever needed.
And, it will come with a Subaru-backed extended vehicle service agreement and
roadside assistance, so you can buy pre-owned with peace of mind.

Subaru Plans
Added Security® is the only extended service contract
1. What does an
Added Security extended service contract cover?
You may choose from two different levels of coverage:
Classic Plan
·Classic plans cover nearly 1000 parts in all major component
areas, including engine, transmission, drivetrains, front suspension, steering,
brakes, electrical, cooling and fuel systems and air conditioning. Also
provides towing and rental car reimbursement for covered repairs.
Gold Plan
·Gold Plus plans include all Classic plan coverage plus hundreds
more parts. In fact they provide essentially the same
"bumper-to-bumper" coverage as the basic factory warranty. Only a few
maintenance items and body parts are not covered. The Gold Plus plan also
reimburses for lodging and meals when a breakdown interrupts your out-of-town
travel, plus: 24-hour emergency roadside assistance*, $100 allowance for
"Sign & Drive" dispatched towing, jump start, tire change,
gasoline delivery, locksmith service, road hazard tire protection, computerized
trip routing, dealer locator service and travel assistance.
2. Does Subaru
also have a Maintenance Plan?
Yes, you can choose the maintenance plan best for you:
·2 or 3 years/30,000; 36,000; or 45,000 miles
·Mileage intervals - 3,750 or 7,500
These plans are especially attractive if you lease your
Subaru. You can include the cost in your lease payment. Then with the
maintenance plan, your only auto expense may be at the gas pump! And the
roadside assistance package is included at no extra cost.
·Enables you to lock-in the cost of the scheduled maintenance
required to keep your basic factory warranty in force and your car in tip-top
running condition.
·Provides service by factory trained technicians
·Guarantees the use of genuine Subaru parts
·Allows your car to be serviced at a quality Subaru dealer at a
competitive price
3. What other
benefits do Added Security contracts include?
·Enhance the resale value of your car. Any remaining coverage
can be transferred to another private owner. Or you can cancel your coverage
and apply for a pro rata refund.
·If you choose a plan with a deductible, you will pay it
only once for each repair visit. Some other plans charge a deductible for each
different component repaired during the same visit.
·Added Security protects your investment and provides an
inflation hedge on future repairs. As with other goods and services, the cost of
parts and labor will increase.
4. What cars are
eligible for Added Security?
Added Security was created exclusively for Subaru cars.
Any Subaru model that is still covered under Subaru of America's basic warranty
is eligible for Added Security, unless it is used commercially or is equipped
with a snowplow.
5. How long does
the service contract coverage last?
You can select the length of coverage that best suits your
needs. You have a choice between eight different plan terms. You can even
choose a plan that covers your Subaru until it is seven years old or has
accumulated 100,000 odometer miles, whichever comes first. The plan term is
calculated from the start of the factory warranty and at zero miles.
6. Where should I
go to have covered repairs performed?
Added Security is honored throughout the United States and Canada at nearly 600 authorized
Subaru dealers, where you can be sure to get genuine Subaru replacement parts
installed by factory trained technicians. However, in emergency situations, you
may call our toll-free number for assistance and approval to have the repairs
done by an authorized repair facility.
