I enjoyed my SUV at first, but I've experienced numerous quirks the past year. My tire pressure light flashes off and on, regardless of the actual tire pressure. I've gotten to feel like every drive I make will end up with a flat tire, I'm getting paranoid. Even if the AC/Heat is off, I still feel air coming in from the outside. The radio volume goes up and down when it wants to. The seatbelt buzz is annoying, especially when I have to "buckle up" library books and the such.The door locks have been repaired and replaced 3 times. Any one else out there having these same problems or is it just my car???

It's fun vehicle to drive, but I have door locks. First it was the driver side front door lock that is not working. After few months I found out now it's the front passenger side door lock is not working and recently I found that rear passenger side door lock is not working also. I tried dealership to repair it, but due to mileage on it I have to pay $350 for each lock. NO OTHER ISSUES. Does anyone has this problem? Can this be a defective locks from the manufacturer?

A common problem of the 3.0 engine: Passenger side cylinder head cracks in the middle cylinder. (Try to find a used, right cylinder head anywhere in the country. Very hard to find. Left side heads are easy to find.) Watch, and clean your MAF often to avoid lean running, and elevated temps. High temps will crack your head!

Subaru has done it again. What a class act the B9 Tribeca is. We drove it on a vacation to the OBX of North Carolina and the car performed like champ. The NAV system worked flawlessly. Note: Drivers using SpeedPass should not keep it on your keyring. It interferes with the ignition sequence and causes the engine to lock up for 10 minutes.
