Reviews of OEM Subaru parts For Business

Of course, you can get a new battery, and I recently had a new battery 80% covered by the dealer, since this is a very well known and documented problem. (My battery was going on 6 years old, so I felt like the discount made it a good time to replace it anyways. The discount was specifically because it is a known issue, and supposedly the new battery is more powerful and “solves” the problem, per the dealer.)

after driving one for a few years I don’t want to go back to standard transmission.

We just replaced the wipers on our 2020 Subaru Outback today - they lasted 4 year!. If you have a Subaru, I highly recommend Subaru wipers. The ones we replaced were still clearing the windshield, but in Virginia they have "safety" inspections and if there's even the tiniest little tear they fail the car. So we replaced them. But they still had life left in them.

I went in for a 30k service (2021 Ascent) and mentioned the brake judder and warranty extension. They confirmed and ordered the parts (pads and rotors), awaiting parts now but it seems it will be all be covered.

I knew it had to be the starter. I had read somewhere that Subaru starters are hard to get, and my year in particular is faulty. So today, I took it to my dealer, and they said that the starter had to be replaced. On my bill, it said that the starter was taking excessive amperage. On a video on the Tube, that version of the starter has a faulty gear which causes trouble starting the engine.

I already have a crack in my windshield. Local Safelite quoted me $1200 (500 replace glass + 700 recalibration).

my wife's windshield cracked once and we got it replaced at Safelite. Then that windshield cracked (and is still cracked currently)

I have all my documents, including photos of the crack going straight across my windshield. Geico only covered $1,000 of my repair leaving me on the hook for the rest. Insurance needs to catch up with how expensive these repairs are!

I just saw mine has a crack this month. I had a similar one in 2023 replaced through insurance in Florida

I had a tiny rock hit the windshield which turned into a monster crack that should not have resulted, and so I'm convinced it was a manufacturing defect.
