Subaru Forester 2014 2.5i PZEV ( California ) , with CVT FB25 engine.
[ this is just for reference ONLY. showing what I have done to 2014 Forester. NOT intended for instruction on how to repair it or maintaining it. I believe it is missing many details and steps to be used as Instruction.]
================================================================
Rubber bushing on Brake pad holder became swollen.
=============================================================
May be because, type of lubricant , not for use with type of rubber bushing.
( not good for rubber bushing )
=========================================================
I used silicone based lubricant this time.
===========================================================
Apperantly, Many people are experiencing same rubber bushing swell problem.

I replaced swollen rubber bushing with Duralast Pin Boot Kit - Part Number: H16060 from Autozone ( both front and rear use same parts ) $2.59 for pair of Right and Left side.
