Subaru Outback
| | Model of the car: | Subaru Outback | | | General comments: | ***Don't buy this car****!!!!! I've had nothing but trouble with this car. It's 10,000 miles out of warranty and I've spent $5600 on it this year. It has had two heater coils replaced this year - $800 each plus towing and over a week without the vehicle each repair. The latest thing to go wrong, the engine needed to be replaced ($3500). I've done all maintenance including oil changes. I even had the car in to the dealer (Barber Brothers in Orem, UT) a month before the engine died to have an oil leak checked and repaired ($377). The only reason I took it in was to avoid having a more costly repair. Also, Subaru customer service offers no help. If you do own one of these dump it before the warranty expires - they will offer absolutely nothing after it does. As soon as I can afford to get rid of this car I will! | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | Obviously the engine and heater coil. There are a lot of things I have never liked about this car - mushy seats, stupid cup holders, etc., but I was willing to live with them before the car started to break down. | | | Previous car: | Toyota Highlander - great car! It's my wife's and what I drive when the Subaru is being repaired! I'm going to probably replace this vehicle with a Toyota Sequoia. |
