Location of
Spare Tire and Jack
A jack and other maintenance tools
are stored in the tool bucket in the
center of the spare tire, located in
the trunk or cargo area. Raise the
center lid and remove the bucket
from the center of the spare tire. Take
the jack out of the bucket. The jack
handle is stowed on the back of the
center lid of the cargo area.
Emergency Towing Your
All-Wheel Drive Vehicle
Since Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel
Drive distributes engine power to
all four wheels, improper towing
will severely damage your AWD
system. A flatbed truck is the only
recommended way to properly
transport your AWD vehicle. If towing
is necessary, it is best done by your
Subaru Retailer or a commercial
towing service.
