What absolute nonsense. My family has had three successive Subarus (2012 Impreza 2015 Forester and 2016 Forester) and all three have been unreliable disasters. Each has required multiple engine replacements at low miles due to excessive oil consumption. Subaru has lied about the defective engine problem and their solution is to put their customers through one oil consumption test after another. The quality has dropped dramatically across the board and these vehicles are constantly in the shop. Multiple air conditioning compressor failures, defective batteries, faulty radio/Bluetooth, bad bearings and control arm bushings, even the hood latch failing on the highway among other problems. Stay as far away from Subaru as possible. Subaru's image of durability is nothing more than a myth. The reason they still do ok in Consumer Reports is because they attempt to buy off their customers' goodwill via extended warranties and credits toward new vehicles. But they won't own up to the fact they knowingly produce and sell vehicles with defective engines and won't fix them even under warranty. Their solution is to replace the defective engine with another defective engine then tell you to buy a new car if you're unhappy!
