    If your vehicle has a flat tire, a service person will install the vehicle’s inflated and mounted spare tire (when applicable).

    Winching and Extrication Service
    If your vehicle is stuck, it will be extricated by a service person if it can be safely reached from a normally traveled road or thoroughfare. Service is limited to one service vehicle and one operator.

    • a) The nearest authorized Subaru Dealer or authorized Subaru Service Centre within a 360 km radius; or
    • b) The nearest CAA contract station or CAA Approved Auto Repair Service facility.
