Service & Warranty

Every Subaru sold in South Africa is warranted against any defect in material or workmanship for a period of 3-years or 100 000kms, whichever comes first. This warranty excludes certain maintenance items which are subject to wear and tear. Batteries, shock absorbers clutches and exhaust systems are warranted for one year or 30 000kms, whichever comes first. Only genuine parts fitted by an authorised dealer are warranted and any parts fitted without Subaru's approval will void the warranty. This includes exhausts, filters, and parts not of the original specifications of the vehicle. Genuine Subaru replacement parts are likewise warranted for a period of 12 months.
