#24 of 33 Gold Plus 7yr/100,000 mi by bigdadi118 Sep 16, 2009 (6:48 pm)
My Outback will be 3 yrs by end of month, just bought Gold Plus 7yr/100,000 mi./ $100 ded at $1,200. This is the lowest price I can find. Just an insurance for a big job if ever needed. Paperwork is in the mail. I think if the warranty was not claimed and can get refund upon maturity.

hi, BigdadI118, where did you get your warranty from? I live in Ohio and I am finding many BIG price differences. Thanks, Jilly'sMom Replies to this message: bigdadi118 (Oct 01, 2009 10:40 pm) kellmac (Oct 02, 2009 7:27 am)

Replying to: paisan (Sep 30, 2009 6:05 pm) All that track time didn't void the warranty?   Just yanking your chain, you know that. Replies to this message: paisan (Oct 02, 2009 2:53 pm)
#28 of 33 Carfax versus Autocheck? TSB info? And, Gold Warranty by kellmac Oct 01, 2009 (12:27 pm)
My mom is shopping for a used '09. In the past I have used Carfax but I now know the information is mostly limited to public records, which may be incomplete.   I have heard that Autocheck is affiliated with Equifax and therefore there is more information. Which would seem to imply that they are using purchase information. Somehow that seems like a violation of privacy but that sort of database would likely be more comprehensive.   Has anyone had any experience with Autocheck? Any rants or raves? The one criticism I read somewhere was from someone that gave their subscription pretty heavy use and it was terminated for suspicion of commercial purposes.   Also, is anyone aware of any Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) on the 09s, or does it matter since the vehicle would be under warranty?   Also, can someone give me a quick refresher on the difference between Subaru Added Security (SAS) and the Gold Plus extended B to B warranty? I get the impression that SAS covers routine maintenance, is that correct? How much extra is that? Is it worth the extra money? Would a used Subaru be eligible?   Finally, I'm surprised I haven't seen any posts here regarding significant savings off of the retail price on the Gold Plus. The last time I bought a Subaru Gold Plus I got a quote from Stacy Subaru (Brattleboro VT) and used it to negotiate with the dealer I was buying from (they matched the quote). I forget the exact numbers but I think I saved 40% to 45% off of retail.   On behalf of my mom, thanks in advance. ~Cath Replies to this message: bigdadi118 (Oct 01, 2009 10:48 pm)

Replying to: kellmac (Oct 01, 2009 12:27 pm) ~Kath   Subaru Added Security = Extended Warranty It contains 2 plans : Basic, Gold Plus Of course Basic covers basic stuffs and Gold Plus covers like new car bumper-to-bumper, road side assistance, towing, trip interuption. You can stop by any Subaru dealer to get a Added Security brochure to get idea.   If you want further info please click my name to email me. You can buy these before the standard warranty 3yr/36k mi. expiry.

#32 of 33 I will try to post as a new thread by kellmac Oct 02, 2009 (7:29 am)
I just realize I should have started a separate thread.   Thanks for the responses on the warranty question but I'm also looking for feedback on Carfax versus Autocheck. ~Cath

Replying to: ateixeira (Oct 01, 2009 11:14 am) Actually it started shortly after I got the car. Cylinder #4 on the 2.5T cars is prone to have bad ring-lands. It slowly started to burn oil up to 1q/700 miles. They replaced the turbo first thinking that was the problem, So I essentially have a new motor (Rings and Pistons + Turbo) now.   Flemington Subaru tried to write up a ton of "aftermarket" parts on my car even though 90% are Subaru parts and the other 10% were ones not covered (shocks, tires, battery, etc) They tried to line me up for a warranty denial but didn't realize that I have a direct line to CFO.... It didn't end well for them after trying to deny the claim and actually out and out lied on the writeup.     -mike
