Never going to buy a Subaru again

Never again will I buy from Subaru. Got the car because they're supposed to be reliable and easy to work on. At 65,000 miles, both front CV axles went out. Air conditioner went out at 55k and has a known defect, which Subaru won't recall or make right. The part alone costs upward of a grand. Brake light switch went bad the first year I had it, I paid to replace it myself. The recall didn't go out until 2019. Car absolutely eats oil. Great concept, absolutely dismal build quality. Subaru has long since left behind its reputation of selling reliable, well-built cars.

Car ate tires like mad and all any of subarus representatives would say is nothing wrong with car its driving style. Original tires lasted 15000 miles second set were rated at 100000 miles but were 20% gone in 5000 miles

Good car.. poor warrantee service from Subaru

Fun ride. After 2 years this car handles well in winter. Too small for 2 kids. Fits as much luggage as a midsize car. Subaru service departments fight hard to avoid covering anything that is covered under the extended Subaru Care warrantee. I am getting rid of it soon while mileage is low for that reason alone.

Had a Accura MDX for 10 years. Decided to switch to a car with better handling and better gas mileage. This is a great one. The Tangerine color is so eye catching! Everything is wondering from space, gas mileage, interior comfort. The only lack is the power train. But you'll get used to it. I have for a year and it's still running a champ!

Don't Be Fooled by the Stylish Appearance

I bought my 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek with 25k on it in January. At first, it was a great little car. For someone who lives in Vermont, a Subaru was almost a way of life, which is what drove me to purchase my Crosstrek. About two weeks after purchasing it was when I noticed my first problem with it, it shook so uncontrollably bad on the interstate that I had to pull over, turn the vehicle off and restart it. It was not long after that when all of the problems started to occur. My car now decides when the radio plays and when it does not, the automatic drivers window does not work anymore, the car skips and shakes when going down the road. Not to mention, how loud the motor is. Overall, my car sounds and feels like it is going to blow up when I drive down the road. I have not even had my car for a year and I am already ready to get something new due to how bad my car is. Unfortunately for me, I put $9500 down on it between my trade-in and down payment and to trade it in, would result in me "taking a bath" in my car. So it looks like I am stuck with it for another two or three years. This is not a vehicle I would recommend purchasing, don't be fooled by the stylish appearance.
