I had a 2011 Subaru legacy that I liked very much. I had all recommended maintenance and long story short the water pump froze and warped a head gasket at 94K miles. I like the look of the Crosstrek, but would be very hesitant to purchase another Subaru. Under the car was full of rust. I live in a mid Atlantic State and drive like : a little old lady".

I was thinking of getting a new Outback. They're going for 39k avg at the local Subaru dealership. How do you feel about the Outback? I've heard good things. My only problem is I'm very tall from the waist up. Headroom is crucial for me. Not sure if I can fit in it. Lol.

@grege9244 Год назад

@johnjacobs1776 I work in sales at a subaru dealership. I'm 6' 2" and I can comfortably fit in the outback. Front and back. Leg room and head room.

@grege9244 Год назад

@johnjacobs1776 the autumn green is also my favorite. Tan interior is only in the touring trim which puts you around 42k. The wilderness starts at 42 as well, both fully loaded come in at 44-45 but they have the turbo. The wilderness has insane gear ratio-that plus the turbo makes it surprisingly fast. Like might beat a wrx from red-light to red-light 🤯

@johnjacobs1776 Год назад

@@grege9244Again, thank you for the information. I thought the limited had a tan interior but I stand corrected. I saw they revamped the wilderness edition for 2024. Subaru are very nice and are not super high priced like some of these other brand dealers. I've never had a CVT transmission but ive heard good things about it. Most cars are outrageously priced especially truck and suvs. There's so many unsold...and repos at an all time high. Subaru isn't as expensive for what you get. Plus they have great warranties. Enjoy your new wilderness edition and have a good rest of the weekend.

Subarus are incredible in the snow. If you don’t live where it snows, Toyota or Honda probably has the edge for reliability. But in the snow Subaru blows everyone else out of the water. A Subaru with all seasons is comparable to an awd rav4 with snow tires. And a Subaru with snow tires is basically a snow cat.

@braceyourselvesfortruth2492 Год назад

Would have been nice if they had it for my 2013 Forester, with its oil consumption problem that led to catastrophic failure 500 miles before my next oil change was due. They had recently discovered this problem, posted a bulletin, and extended the warranty coverage to replace the engine if it caused a problem before 100k miles and 8 years. My car had 96k miles, but was 8 years, 7 months old. This of course was in June 2021, at which point many people had been driving a lot less for 15 months. Had I driven it normally in 2020, the problem likely would have presented itself at a similar mileage but before the 8 year mark (which was October 2020). It would take a lot more new reliability history for me to buy another Subaru. After wrecking my 2015 Volvo two years later, I am now the proud owner of a 2004 Corolla. It's not perfect aesthetically OR mechanically, but it drives fine and it cost me $1500, which was more than what a friend was asking for it.

@billsanter Год назад

@@braceyourselvesfortruth2492 If it failed because you didn't keep oil in it, it probably wouldn't have been covered. Apparently they think using a, quart between oil changes is normal. I'm currently using 1/2 quart between oil changes. It's a 2019 Legacy 2.5 with 65k miles. It's getting traded in when the warranty is up.

I have a 2020 Forester, which I bought new at the time, and my mom has a 2022 Legacy which she's had for a year. Neither of them had to have the original windshield changed, both of them have Eyesight systems. Are you sure your installer isn't messing up somehow? Because this doesn't resemble my experience at all. Only Subaru I've had to have the windshield changed on was a 2015 Forester a while ago. It didn't have Eyesight. Just a rock flew off a truck and struck it while I was driving.

I had a 2021 Crosstrek Outdoor (sport in the states) up until my current 2023 Crosstrek PHEV. I absolutely love Crosstreks. The Crosstrek allows me to carry all of my tools, photography equipment, bikes, kayaks, snowboards, etc and can handle all weather conditions and all of the offroad situations that I throw at it. The safety features are fantastic, the gas mileage is great and they are fun to drive. Truly awesome vehicles.

Like the transmission installed is 10k, they get it for 1200-1400 and pay out the same for installation. We will never buy another Subaru.

@steveshattah Год назад

I wonder how much more it would cost Subaru to make those engines with the proper gaskets instead of the half-assed silicone garbage. It really seems like a scumbag move to do it like that.

@c3bhm Год назад

We should blame ourselves, not Subaru. As consumers we are a total idiocracy and demand whatever is cheapest. Everything is disposable, in our modern society, so by the time that gasket issue becomes a problem 95%+ of the original owners will have sold the car already. So why would the original purchaser want to spend extra when they aren't going to benefit from it? That's awful, but that's how our market works, especially where competitive margins are razor thin to begin with. Worse is how houses are built. Cheap-o crap all over the place, that will be countless expensive headaches years down the road, that could have been prevented by slightly higher costs, but the original builders/owners will have moved on by then.

@peterlipman8211 9 месяцев назад

This is actually from a real Subaru owner: I made it a whole 300 miles in my brand new Crosstrek 2024 sport (yeah the fancy one with yellow stripe and all) before It forced a full stop on me while driving!! Do I need to repeat that vehicle was in 'D' mode when the computer decided its time to full stop??!. It locked the gear shift, it locked the steering, it disconnected the electronic throttle. Even the Starlink emergency button quit. Subaru towed it away 3 weeks ago. If I had been on the freeway, not in turtle mode, it could have killed me! Not sure if I even want it back. Subaru, I'm afraid of my Subaru!!!

Why is Scotty comparing a Crosstrek with a Rav4? Crosstrek Corolla Cross Forrester Rav4

@Matt_76 Год назад

Scotty doesn't tow anything with his matrix unless it's an EV on the side of the road 😭

@Garda1962 Год назад

Bought a 16 brand new,ran that baby on the floor 80% of the time. Couldn't break it,traded in for a 22 Outback Touring. It was junk,sold it,getting a 24 Crosstrek base. Mainly for a cross country road trips. Hope it works out.

The Toyota hybrid vehicles have an E-CVT transmission. Completely different animal as compared with the conventional CVT transmission. More dependable and longer lasting than the than the CVT. You need to update your info Scotty.

If I’m not mistaken the Impreza/crosstrek is rated for towing in Europe not the US. I drove my 2k lb trailer from California to Oklahoma with zero issues behind my 2015 Impreza sport limited.

Subaru screwed me with a nightmare tribeca. Tried to get me into an Ascent but forgot to weld key parts of the Ascent frame. Fortunately I read it in the news. Subaru denied all the design problems to my face in a "gee we've not seen that before" attitude. Run.

@vontoobner5979 Год назад

I had a '13 Impreza that was going through oil like crazy. Subaru did a consumption test and told me the car was indeed losing oil, but "at a normal rate." It's tough to trust a brand after that.

Bought a 2018 Subaru Forester, brand new. Piece of total junk! Traded it at 19,000 miles for a 2016 Toyota Highlander and never looked back in the rear view mirror as I drove off.

@559viking Год назад

Yeah I just purchased a 2016 Subaru Outback 3.6r Limited and for a good price, has 110K on it, two weeks in the alternator died and the dealer replaced that, the battery and the starter, no cost. Not bad, I just drove it 500 miles to LA and it did great. So far I am happy.

I have a 2016 impreza, which is basically a lower crosstek and the only thing I really don't like is how long it takes to go from reverse to forward. Sometimes I put it in neutral while still backing up in hopes it will be ready to go forward sooner.

@GamerKiwi Год назад

Most people I know who have Subarus keep them going for 200k+. And these aren't car people/fastidious about maintenance. They consider 150k a long lasting car. Subaru is no Toyota, but their problems tend not to be "throw the whole car out" bad.
