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.
