      Well maintained 2011, 2.5 engine, with 56,000 miles, regular maintenance, had complete engine failure that occurred suddenly while driving on highway. Inspection reveals shattered piston, actually hole in engine block, Subaru unsure of cause, but ultimate result was catastrophic malfunction resulting in blown engine.

      Burns through oil like it's water. Very disappointed that a large manufacturer like Subaru that sells itself on value for money and reliability would 1. Put out a bad engine, 2. Discover that it was defective 3. Change the engine mid year and cheat consumers who purchased earlier in 2011 by not issuing a recall on these oil guzzlers. . Subaru- Where is your integrity?
    • Really great little vehicle

      I like my little car. Got new, 30K miles and no mechanical problems. Great car for short folk (I'm 5'2") with driver and steering wheel adjusts. TV ad with lady and all the kids and their stuff? Uh, no... With grandson's car seat, there's room for one small adult in back seat, no more. Not a car for someone with lots of kids and stuff. I didn't want moonroof but it came with. It leaked badly. Turned in, got rental, fixed in 3 days. Radio is NOT good. I get better mileage than advertised: 24 in town, 27 or better highway.
