Then to get a call saying basically my worst case scenario, my heart dropped. So to say that I'm absolutely ecstatic that even being 3 year, 3,700 out of warranty that Subaru if doing this for me, is an understatement.

awesome. Just don’t get back in the same scenario. It’s easy to repeat the mistake with the dealers. It can happen again so just be vigilant
