Outback Limited
| | Model of the car: | Outback Limited | | | General comments: | I decided to lease the Outback for the first three years and make another, more informed decision at the end of the lease. Up until a week ago, I had been leaning strongly toward buying the car at the end of the lease period and keeping it for another four years. Last week, a rather shocking event brought some doubt to my mind. The radiator suddendly failed and allowed the engine to overheat. The resulting damage required a head replacement. Although all parts and labor were covered by the warranty, and Subaru of America paid the car rental costs during the repair period, I cannot help but feel that my enthusiastic liing of my subbie has been dampened. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | Unable to completely stop the air flow into the car through the vents. With the fan motionless and the HVAC off, there is always a draft from the vent registers. Poor mileage for a four cylinder engine. Rear wndow too high for back-up visibility. | | | Previous car: | Ford Taurus wagon, Honda Accord SE, BMW 320 I, Suzuki Grand Vitara XL-7 |
