Okay

Good car for the price. I would never get Leather seats again the quality is poor I’ve had to replace the covers three times. It is expensive to have service the car takes eight quarters of oil. I also needed both axles replace and never take it off road.

Great Car

This car drives with some good nimble weight to it. The construction is robust and the mileage is amazing. Kinda plain looking…but a truly great car. I’ve been through minivans and station wagons, but this particular SUV shames them all.

Great car!

I really enjoy driving this car. There have been no mechanical issues. Good gas mileage. I plan on driving it for many years to come.

Expensive problems

Leaking cams? $3000 engine pull. Problems with a power window? $700 to repair as door needed to be removed. Key sticking in ignition? Covered under extended warranty, I actually really prefer my old (purchased used with 70k miles on it) Subaru to this one. Even though I purchased this one new, when it has a problem it’s an expensive one. I wish Subaru would offer a very basic, sturdy, durable vehicle (with safety features!) that was simpler in design and less costly to repair. 🤷🏼‍♀️

outback 2017 good car overall

Good overall car for my money. Reliable and comfortable. Good gas mileage. Able to easily fit my 2 dogs (60+ lbs) and camping gear. Do a lot of trips to forest and good car for the roads and cornering. I choose this car because I don't like much in the way of technology. I enjoy driving this car.

outback 2018 purchased

Purchased my 2018 outback last year. Was looking for a car without many of the bells and whistles that come with new cars. I am a minimalist. This car is great, I actually turned in a Rav4 that was newer to get the least amount of computer excess and to have a CD player. I get a great ride, good reliability and comfort. Wish the new cars came with the option to remove most of the new tech I find cumbersome and in my way.

Love our Subaru

Very few “complaints” about this car. Well designed and thought out ideas. They do need to fix the radio/ entertainment center issue. You can’t just turn it off until you want it on. It is ALWAYS on unless volume is turned to zero. Also they need to get a better navigation program. TomTom is very unreliable and inaccurate. The rest of the car is nearly perfect.

Outback

I love my Outback! Comfortable to drive, it’s roomy, with all the safety features I feel safe when driving it and that’s important to me, not only for myself, but because I often have my Grandchildren with me.

What's not to like

I have had two Subaru's no complaints really like the eye sight and other safety features. I have been responsible for 3 others in buying Subaru's.

So glad I chose the outback!

I love Subaru since the first one I bought (3 cars ago). I also convinced 3 other members of my family to switch to Subarus. Safety and value is what attracted me. Love it! We started with Forresters but love the upgrades and space when I switched to the Outback. My dad loves the size and space of his Ascent, which we use whenever the family goes on trips!

3.6 Boxer Touring- Goes like butter..

Love this car. goes like hell.. and will drive for 300K.. Only knock might be the boring looks.. someone needs to think WRX looks and draw up the Outback.. Too bad no more 3.6lt engines.. you can buy horsepower but you drive torque!
