Subaru Outback
| | Model of the car: | Subaru Outback | | | General comments: | I have had problems with my Outback but perhaps I should have expected this since I bought one of the first made (it is a 96). In light of these problems, I still love this car and hope to get many more miles out of it.
I bought this car in 96 but it had been driven, on a lease, for one year and had about 20,000 on it. While it was under warranty I had one major problem, the engine seals had to be replaced.
Other problems I've had:
1) Around 80,000 miles the steering wheel would shake at low speeds on sharp turns. Turns out this is a transmission issue which is a non-issue as long as I have the transmission flushed on a regular basis.
2) The factory CD | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | Obviously replacing a car's engine is a weakness which is why I gave the Outback 3 stars for a value rating.
Also, the cup holder location is annoying for dealing with the temperature controls and there are no lights behind some of the temperature controls so, for example, if we are travelling at night and want to go from heat through the upper vents to heat on our feet - we have to turn on a light to see which button to hit. | | | Previous car: | Volvo 740 wagon |
