Also get a good Putolator or Subaru brand oil filter that is rated for the higher Subaru oil pressure so that it is filtering more often and not blowing open the internal filter bypass because Clean oil will make the engine last longer.

I just put a windshield in my 2023 outback it cost me $1,250 from Subaru with calibration Safelite wanted $1,300 with calibration
I have a 2019 got a discounted replacement battery at the dealer and the new one is much larger (more powerful?).
I have a 2023 touring with the same problem. Dead battery multiple times within the first few months. The dealership put in a new larger battery (900 cca) Subaru brand, had to take out the factory battery tray to make room for it. No problems as of yet.
Price for the belt + pump kit looks perhaps a little high, but as others have said, you pay more for the convenience of warranty on the service. BUT I would hope for that price it is a genuine or reputable kit, especially the water pump. I just had to replace my non genuine water pump after about 5000km due to a bad bearing, which was not at all worth the price difference for just going genuine to start with.
I had my brakes replaced in January of this year and the dealership didn't charge me. Within about 4 months they started squealing again. I took it back and they basically told me to pound sand. I shouldn't need a 3rd set of brakes on a car with 30k miles. This has been very disappointing and really soured my opinion of Subaru.
I can’t wait to get my brakes fixed under warranty. This will be the 4th brake job before 60k miles which is horrendous. Hopefully around Thanksgiving I’ll try to get her in. The shuddering, the noise etc are something I expect from a car with 200k miles, but my 14 year old Honda with 202k, which also has had 4 brake jobs, feels way better than my 2021 Ascent
Same here on my 21 ascent thought maybe warped rotors was going to just have them done but got the notice. Can really feel it on the highway.
I’ve replaced 5 windshields on my 2015 Forester ! It even looks at a rock and it cracks.
Subaru glass is terrible.
