[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It has a very high repair rate. Are you planning on 4-wheeling with it? If not, get a more reliable AWD vehicle like a Subaru.[/quote]

I'm a first time Subaru owner, and I'm getting absolutely sodomized in the last two years fixing my Crosstrek.

It's a 2013, I've got 66,000 miles, and I've had to replace 3 wheel hub bearings at $590 each, both front axles at $700 per axle, and now I think my transmission is starting to go, which is out of warranty now and I hear costs like $7,000.

This car is a POS. I'll NEVER own another one. [/quote] My 2006 outback that I bought 1 yr old with 30,000 miles left me on the side of a mountain pass in 2011 with 96,000. I had taken it to the shop several times because of a weird noise that apparently only I could hear. The day it left me stranded in the pitch dark on a 27 degree evening, I had literally just picked it up from the shop again with  a diagnosis of "we can't hear anything." I had also asked them to replace the interior light bulbs, all of which were burnt out. I provided the bulbs  but for the life of me couldn't figure out how to remove the covers. They didn't. Sitting in the dark and cold for an hour and a half waiting for a tow and a ride was super awesome. They said it would cost $5000 for a new engine since the car was too new for a used one to be readily available. Never again Subaru. Never again.[/quote]
