Model-year records
What the 2022 record can and cannot say
The 2022 record contains 465 submitted complaints. The median across this model's matched years is 487.5 reports. Neither number accounts for vehicle sales or time on the road. Source names: OUTBACK. NHTSA source snapshot: 2026-10-18.
Visibility/Wiper is the most common displayed component tag, with 255 reports (54.8% of this year's submitted complaints). One complaint can name several components. The share describes reports, not the probability of a failure.
Engine replacement or major internal repair has the highest arithmetic midpoint for parts in the applicable planning estimates, at $8,000 before labor. A paid plan can help only if the component and cause qualify; check existing manufacturer coverage first.

What can the data tell you about 2022 Subaru Outback?
No model-specific individual-repair price keys are retained for Subaru Outback in this library. Generic parts and labor estimates, public records and separate annual cost references may still be available.
Individual-repair price scopeGeneric inputsModel-level range presence is a source-coverage check. It does not confirm that a repair fits every engine or model year.
EPA configuration match3 source rowsThis model year can include different equipment. Use the VIN and original specifications to identify the actual configuration.

Cost-library audit
30 of 44 repair categories have verified national benchmarks; 14 retain planning assumptions. Old model-specific ranges were removed because this refresh did not reverify them.

Five selected archived programs print time limits from seven to fifteen years. Start dates, mileage limits, covered conditions and current VIN eligibility still determine whether those printed terms can apply.

Sources and methods
What each source tells you
NHTSA records: 465 submitted complaints, 4 recalls and 385 manufacturer communications. These are report counts, not failure probabilities.
EPA vehicle details: 3 matched fuel-economy configurations help us leave out repairs for equipment this model year does not have.
Repair-cost estimates: We model 32 applicable repairs beyond normal wear items, using published benchmarks where available plus parts and independent-shop labor assumptions. These ranges are not dealer quotes, repair-shop quotes or invoices.
