Money being vacuumed out of your pockets for things like wheel bearings, CV axles, CVT transmissions, cylinder head gaskets, valve spring recalls, brake switch recalls... and on and on.
That's what real Subaru ownership looks like.
On my second Subaru in 20 years and have had none of these issues (and DH's family lives in the mountains and has had Subarus for as long as he can remember). Sounds like you got a lemon or didn't maintain it properly.
There are a few people on here who really hate subarus
I admit it, I fell for their marketing bullsh!t. Twice.
Two lemons, ten years apart? With by-the-book maintenance?
No. They build shitty cars.
They work phenomenally well in snow. Period. That's all. Otherwise they're junk.
What do you recommend instead? We were considering getting a Subaru to replace DH's Honda, which frankly has had a lot of issues itself.
IMO, cars are going the way of appliances -- they don't build them like they used to anymore where they last 20+ years.
-signed a fairly satisfied 2x subaru owner
No make/model I know of has been issue free in the past few years.

A real Subaru commercial would be a typical SUV commercial preying on peoples insecurities and convincing them they need to drive around in an over engineered gas guzzling tank.
But Subaru's entire marketing ploy is to convince progressives that not only is it ok to drive an ineffecient SUV but it is actually the progressive and green thing to do!
Global warming - no problem - even though you are driving a car that gets poor mileage this car is for progressives so it is ok to drive your kids 3 blocks to school!
Gezus, it must really suck to have the neighbhood get together every morning to piss in your Cheerios.
