Subaru Outback: Two separate circuits
Subaru Outback (BR) 2010-2015 Owners Manual / Starting and operating / Braking / Brake system / Two separate circuits
Your vehicle has a dual circuit brake system. Each circuit works diagonally across the vehicle. If one circuit of the brake system should fail, the other half of the system still works. If one circuit fails, the brake pedal will go down much closer to the floor than usual and you will need to press it down much harder. And a much longer distance will be needed to stop the vehicle.
