SUBARU STARLINK is the in-vehicle technology that provides hands-free connectivity, entertainment, and the security that you need to help keep you and your vehicle safe. STARLINK is composed of two separate systems: STARLINK Multimedia gives you access to news, navigation, food, weather, music, podcasts, audiobooks, and other multimedia content. STARLINK Safety and Security services include Automatic Collision Notification, Enhanced Roadside Assistance, Stolen Vehicle Recovery and the added convenience of Remote Services.

The overhead console buttons provide access to a SUBARU STARLINK Customer Care Advisor. Pressing the red SOS button connects users with a live advisor who can provide emergency assistance. Pressing the blue i-button connects you to Subaru Roadside Assistance.

SUBARU STARLINK allows you to use both SOS Emergency Assistance and Enhanced Roadside Assistance functions without the use of your smartphone via the buttons on your overhead console. However, all STARLINK Remote Access features do require using your smartphone or MySubaru.com to activate remote services.

The STARLINK app is required to enjoy STARLINK Multimedia content from your mobile device in your Subaru. Via the STARLINK cloud and your Bluetooth-enabled mobile device, the STARLINK app automatically pushes content like music, weather, podcasts, and much more from apps such as iHeartRadio^®, Stitcher^®, and Aha^™. The STARLINK app provides hands-free connectivity allowing you to keep your hands on the wheel and attention on the road.

The MySubaru app is required for STARLINK Safety and Security Remote Services. Remote Services include remote vehicle lock and unlock, remote horn and lights, and remote vehicle locator, all accessible from your desktop, tablet, or mobile device.

The MySubaru app also provides access to vehicle diagnostic alerts, user preferences and other beneficial features enabled by your STARLINK Safety Plus & Security Plus subscription.

Whether you’re on the road or away from your Subaru, these mobile apps help you and your family stay safe, entertained, and connected.

STARLINK Safety and Security offers two packages to fit your needs. STARLINK Safety Plus gives you peace of mind in case an emergency occurs when you are in your vehicle. New Subaru owners enjoy a free year of STARLINK Safety Plus for their first year of ownership.

Pressing the blue i-button enables your Enhanced Roadside Assistance working in conjunction with your vehicle's Subaru Roadside Assistance coverage 24/7/365. No matter where you are, your STARLINK Customer Care Advisor will know your exact GPS location and will be able to send help.

Once a month, SUBARU STARLINK will email you a report on the status of your key vehicle systems. A link within the email will take you to MySubaru to view the report in full so you can always be aware of your vehicle’s health.
