I have an 04 OBW LL Bean. It now has about 72K miles on it. About two years ago, while still under 36K, the battery leaked. It was replaced under warranty. Almost two years later, the new battery leaked (hey-stuff happens. I just got unlucky). The dealer (a different dealer than the one who replaced the battery) said sorry, the Subaru Batteries are only waranteed for a year.
Anyway, I call SoA and explain the situation, and state that I am very disappointed. They say, yes, they are only covered for a year, but send in the receipts, and they'll see what they can do.
Here's what they did- they sent me a check for the full amount of the repair. $122+ Included labor and all parts (new hold-down, cable, etc.)
As it happens, I plan to trade in this car fr another one in the spring. It will be a Subaru again (Legacy GT this time)
