Reviews of OEM Subaru brake pads

the VB brakes are fine until they get really hot at which point they fade badly.

None of their brakes were as good as my VB or my 17 Outback.

the brakes are way better and more responsive than our old Nissan.

personally, yeah i don't find the brakes to be particularly worse than my other non performance cars. i did feel like that at first but once i got used to it it was no issue.

the subarus brakes feel and stop great, but can get pretty hot in spirited street driving.

The base model brakes on the 2022 WRX are the least confidence inspiring brakes I’ve ever encountered.

I find the brakes in the 25 WRX to be soft and not a lot of bite in them. If Im braking and need to apply more brake pedal if feels as if nothing is happening brake wise from my initial depress. I'd like more bite with the pads.

Mechanically, the wrx brakes are fine, but the feel is so freakin stiff compared to other cars that it really takes a bit to get used to. In emergency braking, you press the pedal thinking you'll stop fine, but you don't press hard enough and come in faster than you thought, press down harder and it's still not triggering abs, and you crash. It's so damn hard to trigger ABS in this car

The WRX has brakes that are worse than all of them. It takes an amount of pedal pressure that had me check if the power brakes were working. The brakes on the WRX are ass.

On my 22 the brakes were not adequate.
