What is this bar on the hatch of this Subaru Outback? It looks like a shower assist handle. Any ideas oppo?

It for grabbing so you don’t have to touch paint I believe.

I have seen enough of these to convince me that 1) it was a factory option and 2) it was a poorly installed factory option. They always seem to rust where the bar and the trunk meet.

It’s an “oh shit” handle for skaters.

yeah - I believe it was an option starting on the tail end of the previous body style.

Subaru accessory from the dealership. There was one for the sf Forester (98-02) as well.. no factory holes so it screws right into the hatch- that would explain the rust.

Factory option liftgate bar. Primary purpose is to rust a pair of holes in the back of your car. Secondary purpose was to make it easier to open the liftgate, particularly when the back of the car was muddy/covered in snow & ice

One of the best accessories ever devised. It is just a bar to grab to close the hatch. Very handy actually, I had one on my ‘97 Legacy GT wagon and liked it a lot.
HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles

Factory towel rack option. Or for tying a rope to the back of the car to pull sleds, ski’s or snowboards to.
