24 Months Free Maintenance? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

ashtray · 02-08-2013, 02:43 AM

I saw a commercial FROM SUBARU (not a dealer commercial) on TV and at the end it said "24 months free maintenance on all new 2013 Subarus".

Now when I bought my BRZ, the dealer never mentioned free maintenance. Is this retro-active to last year 2013MY purchases?

I noticed you're in socal...which dealer did you buy from? I bought my BRZ from Irvine Subaru about 3 weeks ago and they offered me 2 years or 20,000 mile free maintenance.

Free!? what the hey hey! I had to pre-pay my maintenance. I paid for 3 years maintenance. I got jipped

.....thanks Subaru.

Mine came with 2yrs/24k free maint but it was a SE region thing back then..

Getting 5 years full maintenance standard in South Africa on BRZ: "standard items include the Performance Exhaust, Rear Spoiler and Maintenance Plan of 5years/105,000kms"

I was told 12 months for mine but I have the engine warranty for life and free oil changes for life too as well as free dent/scratch/chip repair for life.

johnb831 · 02-08-2013, 11:48 PM

Must have been by dealer... Didn't get anything like that here in Chattanooga.

chenshuo · 02-09-2013, 12:45 AM

i got life time oil change and warranty, but i just have to pay for each service.

GerryL · 02-09-2013, 01:02 AM

Yep, bought mine in San Diego in September and it came with a 2yr/24k "Maintenance Synthetic" plan which includes intervals of 3k, 7.5k, 15k and 22.5k. Its all pretty much oil changes and tire rotations with an A/C filter and a number of added inspections at 15k. The certificate is a factory "Subaru Added Security Maintenance Agreement" that has been prefilled out for the car.

I thought all new subarus come with a 3 year/36k mile factory warranty? That's what I got. Everything should be free until then...

Lots of Florida guys got it, definitely not dealer specific. Not sure where this region technically ends though.

They're talking about scheduled maintenance, not warranty.
