My Subaru Forrester 2013 is consuming oil at a rate of about a half a quart every 1200 miles for the first 30,000 miles after 30,000 miles it's now a quart at around every 1300 miles as well as coolant that needs to be topped off. Subaru thinks this is acceptable and puts it in the manual however the consumer does not receive the manual until after they buy the car. I would have never purchased a Subaru had I known that I had to constantly monitor my oil and top it off at 1200 miles and check my coolant as it states in the manual every time I get gas. I am not happy with Subaru.I'm in contact with the attorney who filed the class action suit. we won't be added to the suit because it has a ready been filed but you can contact the attorney who is handling It to open your own case because now that we have gon through consumption tests our VINs have been hit and we will not get book value when we see them or trade them in. Everything that you guys have mentioned in the prior posts I have Heard from my techs too and it is absolutely unacceptable! The even try to tell me that the oil was so thin that it evaporates! If Subaru should recall attic knowledge this problem it would put them out of business so instead they adjust the manuals to allow this problem to continue and simply call it correct and acceptable usage or consumption under the specs. Further they need a disclaimer to their wonderful commercials about sharing the love and Subaru being a great car they need to say check your oil every 1200 miles and check your coolant every time you get gas! no one would ever buy a Subaru! Deceptive advertising at its very best! Tweet me your Subaru problems @gungirlnyc and let's get this ball rolling!
