If you did not receive a letter notifying you of the Warranty Enhancement Program, you may confirm coverage by using the VIN lookup tool above.

Subaru Canada mailed notification letters to the last known owner we have on record. If you have recently moved or are a subsequent owner, you may update your customer information by visiting this page.

A copy of the letter is not necessary to receive assistance under the Warranty Enhancement Program. Every authorized Subaru Dealer in Canada may run a vehicle specific inquiry for full details of your warranty coverage.

If you would like a copy of the letter to keep on record, we would be happy to send you one by contacting us at 1-855-327-2455. Please have the last eight digits of your VIN ready before calling, as each letter is specific to the VIN of the covered vehicle.

The Warranty Enhancement Program applies to the vehicle and automatically transfers to any subsequent owners. If you have recently moved or are a subsequent owner, you may update your customer information by visiting this page.

The Enhancement Program is effective immediately and requires no action on your part.

The implementation of a Warranty Enhancement Program does not mean your vehicle requires repairs. If you believe you vehicle is operating normally, you can continue to enjoy your Subaru ownership experience.

When compared to vehicles equipped with traditional automatic transmissions, CVT vehicles do have some unique operational characteristics.

If you have a particular concern or would just like reassurance that your CVT is working as designed, please contact your nearest authorized Subaru Dealer by following this link to schedule a free inspection and test of your CVT's operation and performance.

Your Subaru Dealer will test drive your vehicle and perform several diagnostic tests to verify your CVT is operating as designed. If you do have a particular concern please discuss it with your Service Consultant to ensure your concerns are addressed at the time of your appointment.

The diagnostic tests will take between 1 hour to 1.5 hours. However, you may be required to leave your vehicle at the dealership for longer to accommodate any scheduling restrictions or traffic conditions.

There are no special requirements to either receive or maintain the Enhanced Warranty Coverage. The inspection and testing process is only for those who may be concerned upon notification of the Enhancement Program.

Following the periodic inspection and maintenance services prescribed in your Warranty/Maintenance and Roadside Assistance Booklet is the best way to ensure your Subaru runs smoothly for years to come.

It is not necessary to check the transmission fluid level on a regular basis. The only regular maintenance requirement for the transmission is replacement of the CVT fluids and differential fluids at the following intervals:

• 2010 to 2011 Vehicles: Replace fluid at 6 years/96,000 km's (whichever occurs first)
• 2012 to 2018 Vehicles: Replace fluid at 5 years/100,000km's (whichever occurs first)

Unfortunately, all warranty inspections or repairs must take place at an authorized Subaru Dealer by Subaru Factory Trained Technicians.

Any repairs performed under the CVT Warranty Enhancement Program are warranted for a minimum of 1 year/20,000 km's or the remainder of the total 10 year/160,000km Enhanced Warranty, whichever is greater. This includes vehicles that have exceeded 160,000 km as of the date of the date on the customer notification letter.
