This Consumer Reports "review
This Consumer Reports "review" is not only unfair and skewed...it's just plain BS. Granted...the 2019 and 2020 models were inexcusably bad. Subaru should be ashamed and embarrassed putting g out junk like those cars in the highly competitive Asian and South Korean marketplace. However...Subaru has seriously stepped up...and now is building a real flagship "big" Subaru. I bought one...and I was in the car business for 35 years...with some of that time running a Subaru store and owning Subarus of our own. We now have 17,000 miles on our 2021 Ascent Limited...and I am very happy to report that it is the best car rhat we have ever owned...AND one of the most reliable! No issues. It's a great car. Not by choice...1 week after we took delivery...we had to drive 1,600 hot summer highway miles in fairly grueling weather . The car was "bulletproof". And it was that way all the way home too....and ever since. I have to really question this "review". I'm frankly disappointed in CR for not giving this wonderful, safe car a 2nd chance. It's a great car now.
