We drove our 2013 outback for almost 13 years and 180K miles. It was a great vehicle, but over the last couple years we had some issues, of course at inconvenient times and locations, that decreased our peace of mind, especially on long trips away from home. First, the engine cooling system/fan broke down, requiring a 95 mile tow in the wrong direction and our need to get a rental vehicle to continue our trip. More recently, the Outback would shimmy pretty severely when braking on a downhill slope. And the car would periodically make an unusual high pitched noise with certain steering - not often but enough to cause some concern. Our good mechanics could not replicate that sound or detect its cause, and the brakes, power steering etc all checked out just fine.

Been all over the country on many trips with perfect performance under all conditions--even a mid-winter romp around Vermont. New tires and battery, and everything else--even wipers-- performs as new.

I purchased a Certified Blue Subarau Outback from Kirby Subaru in Ventura with the excellent help of Francisco Vazquez. He was very informative and helpful. I would recommend Kirby and Francisco if looking for a Subaru. Very professional in all ways.

Issues Mileage! Don't know how they got a 27/30 EPA rating but I give it 24/27 - upsetting. I read they toyed with tranny to get more oomph on 2013 perhaps resulting in mileage loss. Engine same but EPA would have to retest right? Yes am lead foot but have noticed that even in slower traffic I only get a little over 27 at best. Tranny noisy! listen while test drive - if it doesn't bother you then it won't later. Worst when engine cold. Steering bit odd coming from mazda 6 - I wandered all over lane at first (you can find many reports on net of this) but now its OK/better. Pros Suspension/drive very good on road, AWD, Comfortable/Spacious interior, Bluetooth, Roof rack
Dependable car

Sold this vehicle i March 2024. It had over 195,000 miles and had reliably carried us everywhere for over 12 years. Good in all weather, holds cargo and dogs. Upsized the engine which cut mpg to 25 highway but great responsiveness. Upscaled the interior and never regretted that.
