Will sell my 2019 Outback probably in 2027 when it hits 80K miles. Subaru should have a PHEV Outback by that time. They are in the process of incorporating Toyota’s battery and hybrid transmission tech.

Now that my 10 year old 100k miles Outback has a new CVT transmission (no cost to me,100k extended warranty but I still had to fight for it), new wheel bearings, brakes and many maintenance expensive type repairs in past year… the engine started leaking oil.

It has NOT been reliable or cost effective in past few years. I’ll never buy another Subaru. My 20 year old Corolla still runs better and has been more reliable!

My 2004 Forestor started giving me trouble around 2018.

I think they fixed the gasket issue like in 2010 or so.

Owned 3 Subarus. A 13 Crosstrek, a 15 Outback, and currently own a 19 Forester. All three had the same problems described above.

One is bad luck.

Twice is a coincidence.

Three times is enemy action.


Subaru is the enemy.


If you hate the car line so much why did you buy three of them ? 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️


I had one. Wife had one when we met. Third one was a company car (Forester)

Perhaps I should’ve explained that so dolts like you people didn’t feel the need to chime in.

We had an ‘06 Outback that was nothing but trouble. Never again, Subaru, never again.

Really wish they'd bring back the Baja.

The Forester and Crosstrek hybrids will come out for 2025. No word on the Outback.

I do not think it will happen next year for the Outback, unfortunately.

Does anyone know if this is happening? We had looked at the Highlander hybrid but are now reconsidering if this becomes an option as it may be an on par but more cost effective option.
