Subaru History
Founded in 1953, Subaru is headquartered in Shibuya, Japan. Subaru is the automotive division of the Japanese transportation conglomerate Subaru Corporation. The Subaru Corporation was formerly known as Fuji Heavy Industries. The founders Kenji Kita and Chikuhei Nakajima both worked for Fuji Heavy Industries which started out as the Aircraft Research Laboratory in 1915. Subaru is the Japanese name for the Pleiades star group. Japanese tradition states that one of the seven stars that make up the Pleiades is invisible, resulting in 6 stars. Which is why there are only six stars in the Subaru logo. The first Subaru car released by Fuji Heavy Industries was the Subaru 1500 in 1954. The first Subaru truck was released in 1961.
In 1967 it was suggested to bring the Subaru 360 to the US by Malcolm Bricklin. Subaru agreed and Subaru of America opened in 1968 in Pennsylvania. The US headquarters currently resides in Camden, New Jersey. From the beginning, Subaru has been known for its boxer engine layout and symmetrical all-wheel drive system which was introduced in 1972. Both are standard equipment for most Subaru vehicles. Subaru owners love the auto’s reliability, the corporate responsibility put forth by Subaru along with their environmental promise.
Subaru is extremely environmentally focused. Over the years they have implemented recycling measures, reducing emissions and constant education to their employees. In fact, the Subaru plant in Lafayette, Indiana was the first assembly plant to reach zero landfill status. This means that nothing from the manufacturing process goes into the landfill. In addition, Subaru vehicles have a 97.3 recycling ratio rate for the vehicles end of life. The engine, transmission and suspension use highly recyclable materials throughout the vehicle. Subaru continues to offer certified Partial Zero Emissions Vehicles. The Legacy, Outback Impreza, Crosstrek and Forester models meet Low emission exhaust emission standards.
As a part of Subaru’s “Love Promise” motto is “Love. For All the Right Reasons”. The aim is to share the Love Promise to all in the Subaru community and beyond in 5 major ways. 1. Love the Earth. 2. Love to Care. 3. Love to Help. 4. Love Learning. 5. Love Pets. Subaru works hard to do the right thing, a value that their owners love and support. Subaru has big plans to continue their Love Promise for years to come.

We even cover the first $100 in towing costs for covered repairs.
yes, olive® is transferrable.
Why are cars with mechanical breakdown coverage more likely to command higher resale value than their uninsured counterparts? Having a mechanical breakdown coverage plan on your vehicle proves to buyers that your car, truck, or SUV has been well cared for. In most cases, purchasing a vehicle that has mechanical breakdown coverage means that the owner has already fixed those vehicle-specific problems that are common to that specific make and model.
Given a choice between two identical vehicles, one with mechanical breakdown coverage transferring with it, and the other without any sort of guarantee, a consumer’s clear choice is the vehicle that is covered. olive® helps mitigate vehicle depreciation by adding resale value to your ride. olive® is coverage when you need it, and, when you no longer need it, olive® is coverage you can transfer when you sell your vehicle.
olive® our coverage is backed
Extended car warranties are like a promise, only as good as the person making it.
Last year, over 40 million used cars and trucks were sold in the US alone. Many dealers try to include a Subaru extended warranty for used cars sold, but are all extended warranties the same? In a word: no. Extended car warranties are like a promise, it’s only as good as the person making it.
olive® is backed by an insurance provider with a long history of satisfying their customers. They’ve secured a consistent “A” rating from A.M. Best and an “A+” rating from Standard & Poor. We only partner with the best, so our coverage can be the same: the best.
An olive® plan is an excellent alternative to a Subaru extended warranty, it’s frictionless coverage backed by an insurance mainstay.
the true cost of ownership
Vehicle complexity is higher than it has ever been, which also causes car repairs to be pricier than they’ve ever been. The average length of a car loan now sits at 68 months. Over that five-year period of ownership, the average cost for repairs/breakdowns is between $2,000 and $3,000. Many drivers are a breakdown away from taking a serious financial hit.
But it doesn’t have to be like that, olive’s plans act like an extended auto warranty, paying for serious mechanical repairs as they come up. But, unlike an extended auto warranty, an olive® plan covers more parts than your average extended auto warranty, and olive® is backed by an insurance underwriter with a consistent “A” rating from A.M. Best, an “A+” rating from Standard & Poor. olive® is coverage backed by a rich history of success.
coverage for every driver type
new car owners
A new vehicle is a significant financial investment and one that can depreciate quickly. Taking care of your investment is vital for the retention of its value. olive® helps keeps your vehicle in pristine condition without the stress of having to pay for large, out of pocket expenses.
expired manufacturers’ warranty
There’s a reason your manufacturer’s warranty only covers bumper-to-bumper repairs for the first 3 years/36,000 miles. After this magical date, your vehicle is likely to require expensive repairs. olive® goes way beyond your vehicle’s original warranty, letting you rack up the miles with confidence.
families
Between soccer practice, laundry, dinner, and impromptu water-balloon fights, we know that family life is a busy life. olive® is here to take the worry out of a mechanical breakdown, so you can keep on schedule and on budget.
educated consumers
It’s smart to be leary of over-priced dealer extended warranties (which carry up to 300% markup!) olive® plans cover the big expensive parts and all the little parts that connect them together. olive® is affordable, direct from the underwriter, coverage.
olive® the difference
Our olive® Ultimate protection plan not only pays for the covered components, but it pays for the labor and the metal hoses, couplings, seals and gaskets, linkages, and control valves (just to name a few). Now that’s coverage superior to an average extended warranty!
When you start adding up the cost of diagnostic time, parts, labor to install the parts, accessory parts, fittings, hoses, gaskets, and couplings, the true cost of a repair becomes a bloated, nightmarish affair.
olive’s budget-friendly monthly fee makes a ton of financial sense. olive® coverage acts like an extended warranty, without the financial headache.
why olive®?
sleep
It sounds strange, but peace of mind is one of the best reasons to have olive® mechanical breakdown insurance.
