The Safety Plus & Security Plus package adds stolen vehicle recovery, vehicle security alarm notification, remote lock/unlock, remote horn and lights and remote vehicle locator. For the first year, Safety Plus & Security Plus Package can be added for $49. A two-year subscription costs $149 and includes the cost of the Safety Plus subscription.
StarLink can deliver live traffic alerts through SiriusXM Traffic and travel information through SiriusXM Travel Link. Subaru pairs StarLink with either a 6.2- or 7-inch in-dash display. The optional 7-inch display features multi-gesture touch controls.
Later in the model year, Subaru customers will be able to access remote services via a website and mobile app, which will be available free for iOS and Android compatible devices. The app will provide access to remote services, user preferences, diagnostic alerts and other features.
