The ball spring inside the switch may break, reducing the strength of the ignition switch. If this occurs, the weight on the key ring and certain road conditions could cause the ignition switch to move out of the run position to the accessory position, turning off the engine.

Due to contamination, components within the windshield wiper motor bottom cover may interfere with each other. If an obstruction, such as a buildup of snow or ice prevents the wiper arms from being able to stop in the parked position, the wiper motor may overheat and the bottom cover may melt.

In the affected vehicles, the parking rod may come loose inside the automatic transmission.
Read full details...
ConsequenceAs a result of the parking rod detaching, the transmission may not be able to be moved from the "park" position preventing the vehicle from being moved or driven. Furthermore, even with the transmission shifted into the 'park' position, the parking mechanism may not engage, and the vehicle may roll away while in the "park" position, increasing the risk of a crash.

Complaints

Component Failure Cascade Risk

Known patterns where one defect leads to more severe downstream failures

CriticalEGR issue detected

Head gasket failure and engine overheating — EGR cooler failure is the leading cause of catastrophic engine failure on diesel engines

HighABS issue detected

Loss of brake assist and ABS in emergency — can significantly extend stopping distances

HighTRANSMISSION issue detected

Complete transmission failure — repair costs $3,000–$8,000+; vehicle may become undriveable

Manufacturer Extended Warranties & Special Coverage

ACTIVESPECIAL COVERAGEZVW-99R
Subaru 2.5L Oil Consumption Special Coverage (ZVW-99R)
Engine – 2.5L FB25 / EJ25 (Piston Rings / Oil Consumption)
COVERAGE:8 years / 100,000 miles from original sale date

2.5L FB25 naturally-aspirated four-cylinder engines suffer from excessive oil consumption (more than 1 quart per 1,200 miles) due to piston ring wear. Subaru issued Special Coverage program ZVW-99R extending coverage for oil consumption on eligible vehicles to 8 years or 100,000 miles.

HOW TO CLAIM: Visit any Subaru dealer and request an oil consumption test under ZVW-99R. The test monitors consumption over 1,200 miles with a sealed cap. If excessive, Subaru replaces the short block. Keep oil purchase records as supporting documentation.

Coverage eligibility depends on your VIN, original sale date, and current mileage. Always verify with an authorized dealer or manufacturer customer service — programs may have been updated since this database was compiled.
