Sports car ride without the handling

You'll feel every bump in the road compared to other sedans such as Accord or Camry. Steering is too vague and imprecise to qualify as a true sport sedan. The navigation is difficult to see screen details and menus are difficult to use.

Nice car but poor infotainment system

I loved my Subaru Legacy until the issues with the infotainment issues began. Freezes, restarts on its own, stops audio, makes skipping sounds.

The WORST Subaru I've ever owned!

I have owned Subaru's since 1989. Purchased a 2019 Legacy in August to replace a 2010 one with just shy of 200,000 miles. (my husband is still driving that one and will NOT drive the 2019) I don't even know where to begin. I get better mileage than expected (The ONLY good thing I can say about this car.) but the car drives itself-even with all the self driving features turned off. It has yanked me onto the shoulder and almost into a guard rail, tried to slam itself into the back of a tractor trailer on Rte 80. Then it s slammed him into a pole-only after hitting the pole did it "mention" that there was an "obstacle detected". The eyesight not only turns off every time there is even the slightest bit of bad weather, it also turns off ALL of the safety features. Subaru acts as if this is normal and my husband (we bought it for him-I was to get the old one for farm use) is somehow at fault even though he's been driving since before the engineers were conceived.They "suggested" that a pair of sunglasses under the floor mat where the pins are was the problem. Or perhaps the E-Z pass 1.5 cm from the vent...Really? Why is the car such a snowflake that it goes nuts over something on the floor 2 feet from the pedals or something on the dash BEHIND the cameras? It has many bizarre "safety" features that make zero sense. It turns the radio on, no matter what, when you start the car. Annoying as heck-A fabulous feature at my cousins funeral. The car bings incessantly with the key in the ignition, as if you are too stupid to now you left it there. You cannot open the trunk with the 2nd key if the other key is in the ignition. The real ones don't work when you need them and the pseudo ones leave you scratching your head as to why they are they are there. Subaru is trying to be all things to all people and failing miserably on all fronts Purchase this car at your own peril.

The trade in value isn’t good but the car is an excellent choice for the money.
