CONTENTS
Within the terms of the Basic New Car Warranty and the one year Replacement Parts Warranty, the Exchange Program provides for replacement of a defective unit from the manufacturer.
In the event the vehicle is “New” and “In-stock”, inform the Service Center. A new unit will be supplied rather than a remanufactured unit. If the Service Center is unable to provide a new unit, immediately contact a Subaru
Retailer Claims Specialist at 1-866-782-2782 prior to placing an order for further instructions.
The replacement of a new unit, other than new units supplied through the exchange program, requires authorization from a Subaru of America, Inc. Retailer Claims Specialist at 1-866-782-2782. An authorization code will be provided and must be included upon claim submission.
Vehicles that have been placed in demo service should use exchange units only.
EXCHANGE PROCEDURE FOR ALL EXCHANGE COMPONENTS

2) Contact the applicable Service Center with the following information:
- Retailer Code
- Retailer Name and Address
- VIN – All 17 Characters
- Date of Vehicle Sale
- Vehicle Mileage
- Caller’s Name and Telephone Number
- Claim Number
- Face Plate ID Number (Clarion only)
- Subaru Part Number as shown in this bulletin

At this time, the Service Center will issue an exchange number. It is required that this number be provided upon claim submission.
An exchange chassis along with an exchange form will be shipped within 72 hours. If the exchange chassis is not received within 5 days, call the Service Center. Provide the operator with the exchange number when making inquiries.
- Install the exchange unit as soon as possible upon receipt. Return the defective chassis to the manufacturer within 30 days. Return freight charges may be claimed as sublet, provided the repair was performed under the terms of the Basic New Car Warranty. Copies of the freight invoice should be attached to the repair order.
If the exchange unit has not been installed or the failed chassis has not been returned within 30 days, contact the Service Center. Reference the exchange number and explain the circumstances causing the delay. An extension will be granted or the retailer will be instructed to return the exchange unit. Failure to comply will result in a “charge back” to the retailer for the cost of the exchange unit.
The retailer must return the failed component in the same approved packaging that the exchange unit arrived in. Harman exchange units arrive with a pre-paid return shipping label. A hard copy of the printout from the on-line order or the Exchange Request Form must be included in the core return package.

Urgent Denso Gen 4 CP1 Audio Exchange Unit Process Announcement To: SDC, SNE, SOA From: Subaru of America, Inc. Department: SOA Service & Quality Dept. Date: 04-15-2020 Category: All Categories Attention: Subaru Service and Parts Managers There is currently a high volume of exchange orders for Denso CP1 CID components. CCU CID Base CID Mid and High We have learned recently the vendor facility in Mexico which manufactures the CID (Cockpit Information Display) is shutting down due to government order for COVID-19. According to the vendor this plant will resume their operation on May 4, 2020. This will reduce the number of CIDs available through their exchange depot to process new CID exchange orders. Here is a list of parts possibly impacted by this plant closure. 86213AN60A – CID BASE 86213AN61A – CID BASE 86213AN65A – CID MID HIGH Please note the “CCU, Cockpit Control Unit” is manufactured by the facility in Tennessee, which so far remains open. In order to mitigate the risk of backorder please assure proper diagnosis is completed each and every time prior to proceeding with CID or CCU exchanges. The results of diagnostic performed must be documented on the repair order and in the rare case of an actual CID failure using the supplied questionnaires and reported via QMRs. In the vast majority of cases, even when the operation of the CID touch screen appears impacted (stuck, frozen or not responding), this is actually a result of a CCU software or hardware failure rather than actual CID failure as the touch screen is still functioning but the CCU is either unable to receive the input properly or unable to provide the needed output to display. Moving the affected CID to a correctly operating vehicle is a quick way to confirm the CID is or is not related to the condition. Your quick action in support of this urgent request is greatly appreciated and will reduce any delays for customers with confirmed need for this equipment.
