hi, BigdadI118, where did you get your warranty from? I live in Ohio and I am finding many BIG price differences. Thanks, Jilly'sMom

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

Replying to: kellmac (Oct 01, 2009 12:27 pm) 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. |

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) 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

Replying to: paisan (Oct 02, 2009 2:53 pm) Purchased my car over the weekend (2010 Outback Premium with AWP CVT) The finance department at the dealership was on vacation so they used the outside company which could care less about me. So getting any deal on extended warranty was lost cause. Today I will contact my own dealer to acquire more info on the warranty, and also few more over the next few days to see what each has to offer. I am just concerned about the new transmission, basically I only care about things power train, and I would like to keep my car for the next 8-10 years moving. So here are few questions. 1. What is the major difference between basic and gold plus warranty? Will basic warranty cover parts that are vital for my car to just move? (do not care about radio or other things that are not vital) 2. Does having less added optional equipment on outback will cost leas for warranty? I have nothing accept all weather package. 3. How much should I pay for 7yr-100K or 7-85K with $50 or $100 deductible? 4. Did any of you ever purchase warranty over the internet. I found Subaru dealer Mastria Subaru Raynham MA selling their warranty on eBay? 5. and final question. Your thoughts on 3rd party warranty. |
