Advice please ...
If a Subaru approved garage fails to fix properly a problem that was flagged up while the car was under warranty, is Subaru responsible for paying something towards repairs to fix that problem if the car is now out of warranty?

As the issue was raised within the warranty period then it should be treated as a warranty repair until resolved.
I would think the actual payment rests between dealer / Subaru / IM.
The only difference might be some reduction for wear and tear. How long out of warranty, and how long since originally notified?

Tough - it was up to you to insist on getting it fixed within the warranty period by the supplying dealer or, if you didn't trust them, another dealer.
You can't exoect IH to cough up now.

I had a paint issue that the dealer wanted to wait and see if it developed on more than one panel. Eventually got a respray outside the warranty period.
So long as the fault is notified within the warranty period then it should be fixed as a warranty repair.

Simply not true. If your engine went pop a week before the warranty expired and it was going to take longer to rebuild, you would still expect it to be done.
