Subaru Forester: Trailer towing / Warranties and maintenance
SUBARU warranties do not apply to
vehicle damage or malfunction caused by
trailer towing. If you use your vehicle to tow
a trailer, more frequent maintenance will
be required due to the additional load.

severe driving conditions” in the “Warranty

Under no circumstances should a trailer be
towed with a new vehicle or a vehicle with
any new powertrain component (engine,
transmission, differential, wheel bearings,

driving.

limits explained in the following.
Exceeding the maximum load limits
could cause personal injury and/or
vehicle damage...
