# Subaru Extended Warranty: What Added Security Covers and Which Term Lasts Longer

> Subaru Added Security runs up to 8 years/120,000 or 10 years/100,000 miles, both counted from delivery. Which lasts longer at your mileage, what Gold Plus excludes, and what Subaru's booklet already covers.

## The short version

- Subaru&rsquo;s extended warranty is Added Security, an extended service agreement Subaru says is the only one backed by Subaru of America. It comes as Gold Plus, which covers everything except a short list, and Classic, which covers named components. Certified Pre-Owned cars come with a Powertrain Coverage Plan.
- Subaru prints two ceilings: 8 years or 120,000 miles, and 10 years or 100,000 miles. Both are counted from the factory warranty start date at 0 miles, not added after the factory warranty.
- Which ceiling lasts longer depends on how far you drive. Below 12,500 miles a year the 10-year plan ends later; above it the 8-year plan does. That arithmetic is ours, from Subaru&rsquo;s two figures.
- Subaru offers $0 or $100 deductibles, paid once per repair visit, and says there are eight plan terms. It prints no price, no list of the eight terms and no name for the company that owes you the repair.
- Subaru&rsquo;s factory warranty runs 3 years or 36,000 miles, with 5 years or 60,000 miles on the powertrain. Unusually, brake pad linings, clutch linings and wiper blades are covered for the full 3 years or 36,000 miles.
- The brochure prints three different versions of the Gold Plus exclusion list. Glass appears in two of them, and batteries in two.

Subaru&rsquo;s extended warranty is called Added Security. It is an extended service agreement sold through Subaru retailers, separate from the factory warranty that comes with every new Subaru. Subaru describes it as the only extended service agreement backed by Subaru of America, Inc., and warns that retailers may also sell agreements backed by independent insurance companies that could be mistaken for Subaru-backed protection. This page draws on what Subaru publishes: the 2024 and 2023 warranty booklets and the 2023 Solterra booklet on subaru.com, the Added Security page and the Added Security plan comparison brochure. All were read on 11 September 2026 and re-checked on 30 September 2026, when every document still matched our transcription.

One limit up front. Subaru&rsquo;s own sitemap lists warranty booklets for model years 2000 to 2024, and requests for 2025 and 2026 booklets returned nothing. So the newest factory terms Subaru publishes on its site are for 2024 models. Where this page describes the factory warranty, it is describing the 2024 booklet.

**Figure: Which Subaru Added Security ceiling lasts longer, by annual mileage**

A two-column table comparing Subaru's two stated Added Security ceilings, 8 years or 120,000 miles and 10 years or 100,000 miles, both counted from the factory warranty start at 0 miles, for five bands of annual mileage. They cross at 12,500 miles a year.

Subaru's Added Security page offers plans up to 8 years or 120,000 miles and 10 years or 100,000 miles, and says the term is counted from the start of the factory warranty at 0 miles. Which ceiling runs longer is our arithmetic from those two figures: a car driven fewer than 12,500 miles a year gets more time from the 10-year ceiling, and one driven more gets more from the 8-year ceiling. Subaru says there are eight plan terms but does not list them, so the terms offered for a given car may fall short of either ceiling. Read on 11 September 2026 and re-checked on 30 September 2026.

## Gold Plus, Classic and the Powertrain Coverage Plan

Subaru&rsquo;s [Added Security page](https://www.subaru.com/owners/benefits-of-ownership/added-security-program.html) leads with Gold Plus, which it calls its most comprehensive mechanical coverage. It says Gold Plus protects everything except a short list of maintenance items and body parts, including wear and tear and technology such as EyeSight and DriverFocus, with towing, rental car reimbursement and trip interruption for covered repairs. The [plan comparison brochure](https://www.subaru.com/content/dam/subaru/en/pages/owners/benefits-of-ownership/2025_0130_S_25EZ_ViewGuide_EBro_rX_63_.pdf) puts it in one line: Gold Plus &ldquo;covers everything but a small list of maintenance items and body trim.&rdquo;

The brochure names the technology Gold Plus coverage &ldquo;also includes&rdquo;: EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, Blind-Spot Detection, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Reverse Automatic Braking, the DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System, STARLINK Multimedia and STARLINK Safety and Security. Those are some of the most expensive electronics on a modern Subaru, and none of them is powertrain.

Classic appears only in the brochure, not on the Added Security page. The brochure calls it &ldquo;stated coverage for most major components&rdquo;: all powertrain coverage plus specific components in six systems, namely cooling and fuel, steering, suspension, brakes, electrical systems and air conditioning. Stated coverage means a list. A part that isn&rsquo;t on Classic&rsquo;s list isn&rsquo;t covered, which is the opposite of how Gold Plus works.

The third plan comes with a car rather than being bought. The brochure says all Subaru Certified Pre-Owned vehicles come with a Powertrain Coverage Plan for engine, transaxle and differential components, which can be upgraded to Gold Plus for up to 10 years, measured from the vehicle&rsquo;s original warranty start date.

**Subaru says these things about its rivals; we haven&rsquo;t checked them.** The Added Security page claims the 10 leading independent providers of 10 years ago are all out of business today, and that independent coverages often require inferior replacement parts, exclude wear and tear, or make benefits hard to collect. The brochure says most third-party plans require a breakdown to be more than 100 miles from home for trip cover, and that, unlike them, Added Security covers wear and tear, consequential damage, struts and constant-velocity joints. Subaru gives no source, date or list for any of these claims. They are sales arguments, not findings.

## Two ceilings, one starting line: how long Added Security runs

The Added Security page offers &ldquo;many plan options up to 8 years, 120,000 miles and 10 years, 100,000 miles.&rdquo; Elsewhere it describes the longest plan as one that covers your Subaru until it is 10 years old or has accumulated 100,000 odometer miles, whichever comes first. It says there are eight different plan terms. It doesn&rsquo;t list them.

The sentence that matters most is short: the plan term is calculated from the start of the factory warranty and at 0 miles. So a 10-year, 100,000-mile plan doesn&rsquo;t add 10 years to the factory warranty. It ends when the car is 10 years old or its odometer reaches 100,000 miles, whichever comes first, however late you bought it.

Because the two ceilings trade years for miles, which one lasts longer depends on how far you drive. The arithmetic is ours, from Subaru&rsquo;s two figures:

- The 10-year, 100,000-mile ceiling ends on the odometer for anyone driving more than 10,000 miles a year.
- The 8-year, 120,000-mile ceiling ends on the odometer for anyone driving more than 15,000 miles a year.
- The two end on the same day for a car driven 12,500 miles a year. Below that, the 10-year ceiling runs later. Above it, the 8-year ceiling does.

Set against the factory warranty, the gaps look like this, again as our arithmetic between end points. The 8-year, 120,000-mile ceiling sits 5 years and 84,000 miles beyond where the 3-year, 36,000-mile basic warranty ends, and 3 years and 60,000 miles beyond the 5-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty. The 10-year, 100,000-mile ceiling sits 7 years and 64,000 miles beyond the basic warranty and 5 years and 40,000 miles beyond the powertrain warranty. What a particular car actually gets depends on where it stood when each factory warranty ran out. A plan also overlaps the factory warranty for as long as that warranty lasts, because both clocks start on the same day.

Eligibility is broad. Subaru says any Subaru model still covered by its basic warranty is eligible for Added Security, unless the vehicle is used commercially or is equipped with a snowplow. For a new car that means buying before 3 years or 36,000 miles; the page doesn&rsquo;t say whether the price changes as you approach that point.

## Deductible, price, transfer and cancellation

The page prints the deductible options: $0 or $100. With a deductible plan, you pay it once per repair visit, however many covered parts are fixed. It prints no price. Plan costs, it says, vary with the terms of the plan, such as length of coverage and deductible, and it sends buyers to their local Subaru retailer. Bought with the car, the cost can be added to the monthly finance or lease payment.

Remaining coverage can be transferred to another private owner within 30 days of the sale, for a small service fee. The page doesn&rsquo;t print the fee. You can cancel and apply for a prorated refund, but the page prints no cancellation fee and no refund formula. Get both in writing before you sign, and ask where the refund goes if the plan is in your loan. Our guides cover [cancelling a plan](https://baronauto1.com/financing/is-an-extended-warranty-worth-it/#cancel) and [how cancellations go wrong](https://baronauto1.com/financing/extended-warranty-companies/#cancellation).

Subaru says Added Security is honored throughout the United States and Canada, that repairs use genuine Subaru parts and factory-trained Subaru technicians, and that it doesn&rsquo;t require non-Subaru or used parts however many miles the car has. If a plan includes roadside assistance, Cross Country Motor Club sends a separate package with the emergency number.

One gap is worth raising with the retailer. Subaru&rsquo;s own glossary on the page defines the obligor as the company obligated to live up to the terms of the agreement, and the administrator as a company hired to handle claims, which isn&rsquo;t a party to the agreement. But neither the page nor the brochure names the obligor or administrator for Added Security. Ask the retailer to show you both names on the agreement itself. Our guide to [who actually owes you the repair](https://baronauto1.com/financing/extended-warranty-companies/#who-owes-you) explains why that line matters.

## The benefits the brochure prints

The brochure&rsquo;s benefit figures are thinner than most brands&rsquo;. It says all plans provide a rental allowance for up to five days when the car is kept in the shop overnight for a covered repair, and an allowance for a tow after a covered failure, but it prints no daily rental amount and no towing amount. The Added Security page mentions a $100 allowance for &ldquo;Sign & Drive&rdquo; dispatched towing and computerized trip routing for up to 10 years.

Gold Plus trip interruption is more specific: up to $500 per occurrence toward hotel and meals if you break down, starting at 50 miles or more from home. Roadside services such as towing, jump-starts and flat-tire changes are included &ldquo;in some plans&rdquo;, and the brochure sends you to the agreement for which.

The brochure also sells four products under the Subaru Equity Shield name, bought separately: tire and wheel protection, windshield protection, dent and ding protection and key fob protection. Windshield protection covers cracks, chips and bullseyes under 6 inches long, and dent protection covers paintless dent repair and hail damage up to $1,000 of an insurance deductible. These aren&rsquo;t part of Gold Plus or Classic.

Added Security also covers maintenance, as a separate plan. The page lists maintenance plans of 2 or 3 years and 24,000, 36,000 or 45,000 miles, at intervals of 3,750 or 6,000 miles. A video on the page says new-vehicle maintenance plans come in increments of up to three years or 45,000 miles, and that used Subarus can get an Anytime Plan of up to two years or 24,000 miles, including roadside assistance. The brochure says every new-car maintenance plan includes a coupon worth $500 toward your next new Subaru, excluding promotional and Anytime plans.

## The Gold Plus exclusion list, printed three ways

Gold Plus is sold on its short exclusion list, so the list matters. The brochure prints it three times, and the three versions don&rsquo;t match.

**The three Gold Plus exclusion sentences in Subaru&rsquo;s Added Security comparison brochure, read on 11 September 2026. Each ends &ldquo;and more&rdquo;, so none is complete.**

| Where it appears | Items named |
| --- | --- |
| First sentence on page 3 | Maintenance items, glass, brake pads, windshield wiper blades, hoses, belts |
| Second sentence on page 3 | Maintenance items, glass, brake pads, windshield wiper blades, hoses, belts, batteries |
| Page 10 | Maintenance items, brake pads, windshield wiper blades, hoses, belts, batteries |

Five items appear in every version: maintenance items, brake pads, windshield wiper blades, hoses and belts. Glass is missing from the page 10 version, and batteries from the first page 3 version. Every version ends &ldquo;and more&rdquo; and refers you to a retailer, so the agreement&rsquo;s own exclusion section is the only complete list. We record the disagreement rather than choose one version. If glass or battery cover matters to you, ask to see that section before you sign.

**Figure: Annotated photograph**

Three numbered callouts over the photograph mark the wiper blade, the windscreen glass and the windscreen pillar of the body, with what Subaru's warranty and Added Security documents say about each.

Three parts in one view, three different answers. Subaru's Wear Item Limited Warranty covers wiper blades, with brake pad and clutch linings, for 3 years or 36,000 miles, and every version of the Gold Plus exclusion list names wiper blades (callout 1). Glass is named in two of the brochure's three Gold Plus exclusion lists, while windscreen repairs under 6 inches are sold separately as Equity Shield windshield protection (callout 2). The body is covered against rust perforation for 5 years at any mileage (callout 3).

## What a Subaru already carries: the 2024 booklet

Subaru publishes its warranty booklet as a web page. The [2024 page](https://www.subaru.com/owners/vehicle-resources/warranties-2024.html) calls itself a brief description of the Subaru Limited Warranty for 2024 models, provided to each buyer at no additional charge, and says the dealer has the complete details. It lists five coverages.

**Coverage terms in Subaru&rsquo;s 2024 warranty booklet web text, read on 11 September 2026 and re-checked on 30 September 2026. Each ends at whichever limit comes first. Emission warranties are referred to but not reproduced on the page.**

| Coverage | Term | What it covers |
| --- | --- | --- |
| New Vehicle Limited Warranty | 3 years or 36,000 miles | Subject to the listed exclusions, the entire vehicle |
| Wear Item Limited Warranty | 3 years or 36,000 miles | Brake pad and shoe linings, clutch linings and wiper blades |
| Powertrain Limited Warranty | 5 years or 60,000 miles | The 15 powertrain components the booklet lists, for all models |
| Rust Perforation Limited Warranty | 5 years, any mileage | Original body sheet metal panels rusted through from the inside out. Surface corrosion isn&rsquo;t covered. |
| Seat Belt Lifetime Limited Warranty | The useful life of the vehicle | Seat belts and related components that fail in normal use, excluding appearance, electrical components and body anchor points |

The Wear Item warranty is the unusual one. Among the other brands whose booklets we have read, FCA US covers brake pads and wiper blades on a 2025 Jeep for 1 year or 12,000 miles, Chevrolet treats brake pads and wiper blades as maintenance after 7,500 miles, and Nissan covers wiper blade inserts for the first six months. Subaru covers them for the full 3 years or 36,000 miles. It also covers adjustments once during the first 36 months or 36,000 miles. After that, brake pads and wiper blades fall into the list of items Gold Plus excludes, so they are the owner&rsquo;s cost either way.

The booklet lists 15 powertrain components. For the engine: the block and all internal parts, cylinder heads and valve trains, oil pump and oil pan, timing belts or gears and covers, water pump, flywheel, intake and exhaust manifolds, and oil seals and gaskets. For the transaxle, transmission and differential: the case and internal parts, torque converter, electronic transmission control unit, seals and gaskets, axle shafts and constant velocity joints except boots, propeller shaft and wheel bearings. Axle and CV-joint damage caused by a torn or split boot letting in road grit isn&rsquo;t covered, so check boots at every service.

After the basic warranty ends at 3 years or 36,000 miles, the powertrain warranty continues to 5 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. The end points are 2 years and 24,000 miles apart; that subtraction is ours, and it isn&rsquo;t what every car gets. A low-mileage Subaru that reaches its third birthday keeps the extra years and may add more than 24,000 miles in them. A high-mileage one that reaches 36,000 miles early keeps the extra miles, which may take longer than 2 years.

The 2023 booklet printed one term the 2024 page doesn&rsquo;t: a Hybrid System Limited Warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles on plug-in hybrids, covering eight listed components from the high-voltage battery pack to the transmission and electric motor assembly. Subaru doesn&rsquo;t say why it is absent from the 2024 page, and we infer nothing. The other five terms are unchanged from 2023. The 2023 Solterra booklet, the only Solterra booklet Subaru lists, adds an Advanced Driver Assist System warranty of 5 years or 60,000 miles and a Battery and Electric Drive Unit warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles, with retention of 70% or more of the original battery capacity.

## The factory warranty&rsquo;s own rules

The warranties are made by Subaru of America, Inc., or for vehicles delivered in Hawaii by SUBARU Hawaii. They apply only to vehicles Subaru of America imported or distributed and an Authorized Subaru Retailer in the United States sold to the first retail buyer, and all repairs must be done by an Authorized Subaru Retailer in the United States. Coverage begins on the date the vehicle is delivered to the first retail buyer, or the date it was first used as a demonstrator or company car.

Every owner during the warranty period gets the benefit, so the warranty passes with the car. Subaru asks a new owner to send it written notice of the transfer. Warranty claims must be made as soon as reasonably possible after a defect is found, and before coverage on that part ends.

The booklet has an emergency repair rule that is worth knowing on a road trip. If no Authorized Subaru Retailer is open within 75 miles, minor repairs needed for safe operation can be done at any available facility. Subaru reimburses eligible repairs up to $500, at no more than its suggested parts price and labor time. You must present the replaced parts, the paid receipt and a written description to a Subaru retailer within 15 days, and approved claims are paid within 60 days.

The exclusions follow the familiar pattern, with two Subaru-specific details. First, periodic software and firmware updates are treated as normal maintenance, which the warranties don&rsquo;t pay for. Second, environmental damage is broadly excluded: airborne fallout, salt, water, flooding, hail, windstorm, lightning and extreme temperatures. The booklet also excludes damage from missed maintenance or not following the Owner&rsquo;s Manual, unauthorized modifications, racing, commercial use unless Subaru waives it in writing, and damage to a covered part caused by a non-covered one. Keep proof of every scheduled service; the booklet makes that the owner&rsquo;s job.

A vehicle is ineligible for warranty coverage if its VIN is altered or unreadable, if it has been declared a total loss or sold for salvage, if it has been dismantled or materially altered, or if its odometer has been changed so the mileage can&rsquo;t be determined. On a used Subaru, check the title history first. A [salvage or rebuilt brand](https://baronauto1.com/vehicle-history/what-is-a-salvage-title/) ends the factory warranty, and with it eligibility for Added Security, which requires the basic warranty to still be in force.

## Why there is no lender complaint data for Subaru

For other brands on this site, we count complaints filed with the CFPB against the carmaker&rsquo;s captive lender, because service contracts sold inside a car loan show up there when they go wrong. We can&rsquo;t do that for Subaru. On 30 September 2026 we checked the full list of 1,146 companies in the CFPB&rsquo;s vehicle loan or lease file, and none is a Subaru lender. The Subaru Motors Finance website explains why: the Subaru Motors Finance tradename and logo are licensed to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and the auto finance accounts are owned by Chase. Complaints about those accounts sit in Chase&rsquo;s file alongside all of Chase&rsquo;s other auto lending, and no public field separates them. So we don&rsquo;t present any complaint figure as Subaru&rsquo;s.

If you finance a Subaru and want to check how a lender handles add-on products, search the CFPB database under the Chase entity for your own loan type. Just remember that what you find there isn&rsquo;t specific to Subaru buyers.

## Added Security, a third-party plan, or neither

Whether a service contract is worth buying at all is covered in [our guide to whether an extended warranty is worth it](https://baronauto1.com/financing/is-an-extended-warranty-worth-it/#worth-it). On a Subaru, a few things narrow it.

First, match the ceiling to your mileage. At under 12,500 miles a year, a 10-year, 100,000-mile plan runs later than an 8-year, 120,000-mile one; above that, the reverse. Both start from the day the car was first delivered, so a plan bought in year three has only the remainder left.

Second, decide between Gold Plus and Classic on the parts, not the name. Gold Plus covers everything outside its exclusion list, including EyeSight and the STARLINK systems. Classic covers named components in six systems plus the powertrain. If driver-assist electronics are what you worry about, that is a Gold Plus question.

Third, the price, which Subaru doesn&rsquo;t print. [Why there is no sticker price](https://baronauto1.com/financing/extended-car-warranty-cost/#no-sticker) and [where the markup comes from](https://baronauto1.com/financing/extended-car-warranty-cost/#markup) explain how the number is set and why it is negotiable. Because eligibility runs until the basic warranty ends, you don&rsquo;t have to decide in the finance office on the day you buy the car. A third-party plan names its own obligor and administrator; our guide to [what a state register will tell you](https://baronauto1.com/financing/extended-warranty-companies/#check-the-register) shows how to check them. For a car past the basic warranty, Added Security is no longer available, and the remaining routes are a third-party plan or, from some insurers, [mechanical breakdown insurance](https://baronauto1.com/financing/mechanical-breakdown-insurance/).

- **Pick the ceiling by your mileage.** 12,500 miles a year is where the two ceilings cross.
- **Get the start date on paper.** The term runs from the original warranty start at 0 miles, so ask for the plan&rsquo;s end date and mileage to be printed on the agreement.
- **Get the names.** Ask which company is the obligor and which is the administrator; neither is printed on the page or brochure.
- **Get the missing numbers.** Price, transfer fee and cancellation terms should all be on the agreement.
- **Read the real exclusion list.** The brochure&rsquo;s three versions disagree on glass and batteries.
- **Buy before 3 years or 36,000 miles.** After the basic warranty ends, Added Security isn&rsquo;t available.
- **Keep every service record.** The factory warranty excludes damage from missed maintenance, and the booklet makes proof your job.

Calls saying your Subaru warranty is about to expire are a separate matter. In 2022 the FTC sued American Vehicle Protection Corp., a Florida seller it alleged had falsely claimed to be, or to be associated with, consumers&rsquo; carmakers or dealers, and had promised bumper-to-bumper or full coverage that was much more limited than represented. A stipulated order in March 2023 and a further order that July banned defendants from selling extended auto warranties and from outbound telemarketing. In 2024 the FTC sent more than $449,000 in refunds to consumers. Subaru itself warns that retailers may sell independently backed agreements that could be mistaken for its own. See [what regulators have done](https://baronauto1.com/financing/extended-warranty-companies/#enforcement).

## Common questions

### How much does Subaru Added Security cost?

Subaru doesn&rsquo;t publish a price. The Added Security page says costs vary with the plan&rsquo;s terms, such as length of coverage and deductible, and sends buyers to a Subaru retailer. The price is set per quote and is negotiable. Our guide to [extended car warranty cost](https://baronauto1.com/financing/extended-car-warranty-cost/) explains what moves it.

### Is Subaru Added Security Gold Plus worth it?

It depends on how long you keep the car, how far you drive and the price. Gold Plus covers everything except its exclusion list, including EyeSight and STARLINK, and its term runs from the factory warranty start, so its value lies beyond 5 years or 60,000 miles. Compare the quote with what those years are likely to cost you. Our guide to [whether an extended warranty is worth it](https://baronauto1.com/financing/is-an-extended-warranty-worth-it/) walks through the arithmetic.

### Can I buy Subaru Added Security after buying the car?

Yes, while the car is still covered by Subaru&rsquo;s basic warranty, which on a 2024 model runs 3 years or 36,000 miles. Subaru says any model under that warranty is eligible unless it is used commercially or fitted with a snowplow.

### Is Subaru Added Security transferable?

Subaru says remaining coverage can be transferred to another private owner within 30 days of the sale, for a small service fee. It doesn&rsquo;t print the fee.

### What is the longest Subaru extended warranty?

Subaru prints two ceilings: 8 years or 120,000 miles, and 10 years or 100,000 miles, both counted from the factory warranty start at 0 miles. Certified Pre-Owned cars can be upgraded to Gold Plus for up to 10 years from their original warranty start date.

### Does the Subaru warranty cover brake pads?

Yes, for longer than most. Subaru&rsquo;s Wear Item Limited Warranty covers brake pad and shoe linings, clutch linings and wiper blades for 3 years or 36,000 miles. Gold Plus lists brake pads among its exclusions, so after that they are yours to pay for.
