Your car's lower oil pan is leaking oil, and this problem started shortly after your warranty expired. Additionally, the seats have ripped. Both issues appear to be known problems affecting Subaru vehicles with the 2.4 turbo engine. Fixing the oil leak will likely require replacing the oil pan gasket or the pan itself, and the seat damage may need seat cover repair or replacement.
