Congratulations on your first brand-new car! Here’s how long Subaru warranties last.
Every new Subaru comes with a three-year/36,000-mile factory warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. These manufacturer warranties cover the cost of repairing most of your vehicle’s parts and components if they’re impacted by a factory defect or poor workmanship.

  • Normal wear and tear
  • Damage caused by a car accident, neglect, or anything other than a manufacturing error
  • Oil changes, wheel alignments, engine tune-ups, and anything else that can be considered
    routine maintenance
  • Aftermarket parts or modifications
