Subaru wants you to know it won’t risk your child’s innocence by letting their virgin ears accidentally encounter curse words on the satellite radio. And as one childless Oregon man discovered, Subaru will censor your SiriusXM stations whether you have children or not.

Vince Patton was vexed when he found his 2016 Subaru Outback's satellite radio defaulting to the SiriusXM preview channel every time he turned it back on. He expected the radio to still be on the Comedy Greats channel, which sometimes features the R-rated stylings of the likes of George Carlin and Richard Pryor—after all, that's what he'd been listening to. But, nope—if he’d had some blue laughs going when he shut down the car, the Outback would restart with the stereo on Channel 001.

Patton called SiriusXM to figure out what was happening, but the satellite radio technicians were just as stumped as he was. It was only after he wrote a letter to Subaru that a rep for the company unraveled the mystery, ultimately tracing the mystery back to a Tech Tips bulletin for the 2015 Outback and Legacy. On cars with SiriusXM satellite radio, the bulletin explained, "the channel will automatically revert to the preview station at every key cycle if the unit is turned off while tuned to a channel that may broadcast content intended for a mature audience. This feature is not customizable by the user.” In other words: Subaru will censor your SiriusXM radio content, and you can't do anything about it.
