Hi,
Hi,
I was just test driving both the 2017 OB and Forester yesterday, 09/03/16 and was leaning heavily toward a Subaru. I told Subaru there were still a couple other SUVs I wanted to check out.
At the time that I was at Subaru I didn't know there had been a big lawsuit for 'excessive oil consumption'. I don't know if the 2017 vehicles will have this issue so not sure what to do as right now I am driving a 2003 Nissan Altima and just found out that my floorboards are corroded and that my car is burning oil. I only have 77,500 miles on the car and from reading many forums this has also been a known issue with Nissan - especially the Altimas.
My mechanic said these problems would be more expensive to fix than my car is worth and recommended I replace my car so it was rejected at inspection time; I'm running out of time with my current car since I have a rejection sticker so with all the research I'm doing on so many cars and the different manufacturers I don't know who you can trust at this point. All the car manufacturers seem to be aware of serious problems and either they're embroiled in lawsuits, recalls or many documented complaints that the manufacturers are aware of but won't acknowledge and I really don't know what to do. It seems that all auto manufacturers are just greedy crooks and don't care about their products or their customers.
Very dismayed about what type of vehicle to go with at this point.
