Research before you buy. Front seat could be more supportive. Eyesight cant handle very heavy rain especially when passing tractor trailers and buses. The trip computer be bipolar. It occasionally takes you off the highway onto country roads and once told me that a 192 mile trip was over 1 million miles away!!!!

The acceleration is purposely slow so no Jack rabbit starts which is over all good for the car. Fuel mileage is great I am getting 35 city!! 60 hwy The only drawback is the entertainment center picking your music over the mix. But it could be me not use to it yet. The lighting is great and self start is nice. The tire pressure monitoring is a great way to keep your tires lasting! And last the lane assist will keep you in your lane and protects blind spots for you! If ever I had to buy another vehicle it would be a Subaru no doubt! I had two recalls that were to update maps and fuel warning. Both that didn’t really affect me personally or the ability to operate the vehicle. I had the software updates done and my car still runs well! Still a great car and fun to drive!
