Subaru Impreza Change Vehicle

"water leaks into left rear tail light assembly within warranty period (even though I had also purchased ext warranty). coverage initially declined, but subaru america issued me a reimbursement check after i paid the dealer to repair. same problem wi"

"coolant leak due to coolant pump wearing out. Interestingly, replacement was over $1K, because you have to replace the belts and service the tensioners as well as just replace the coolant pump."

"Wind noise is noticeble"

"Because the cost of replacing cat conv on 10 year old car is more than its benefit, I am currently shopping for a replacement: 2015-2019 with lane assist and forward crash automatic braking."

"Check engine light - too costly to repair"

"IT REQUIRES REPLACEMENT AS IT SENDS CHECK-ENGINE LIGHT CODES"

"Noticed oil leak. Took it to dealer and another garage and was notified by both that it was a head gasket problem. Both estimates were $2000 to $3500. They had to remove the engine, take the head off, resurface the head. I had them do water pump an"

"Replaced the engine under warranty at 48000 km (internal rattling) then 80000km later the head gasket goes - $2200. No excuse especially as it was not a new problem. Should have been fixed many years earlier and Subaru should have covered the replace"

"Major oil leak causing engine failure"

"Just routine alignment."

"Seems to easily go out of alignment. You have to constantly monitor tire wear as all four tires must be replaced at the same time or the differential wears out. So you cannot just replace front tires. Also only the inside edge of the tires wear so it's hard to notice unless you are down on your hands and knees checking them. A constant annoyance."

"Power steering pump went on me at 75000."

"Clutch and pressure plate failed/wore out."

"Complete clutch failure. Other problem; excessive oil consumption"

"covered by bumper to bumper warranty (just barely), 3rd gear slipped out of engagement very easily. Required linkage and 2nd/3rd gear rebuild"

"replacement of catalytic converter"

"no excuse for a fuel pump going at 120000km. Car was just out of warranty and things started falling apart"

"One of the four oxygen sensors stopped working and needed to be replaced."

"The CD player in my car is a combination CD player/radio. It stopped producing sound. At first, I'd turn it on and it would produce sound for a while, then it would make a mild pop and stop. It still seemed to be on, but it didn't produce any sound, no matter how high I turned up the volume. Over time, it began malfunctioning this way more frequently and finally got to the point that it would produce sound only once every couple of weeks or so."

"Does not accept CDs any more. Does not play. Does not eject. Basically toast"

"Radio lost sensitivity; could only pick up the very strongest stations."

"The transmission cooler lines rusted through! Who ever heard of such a thing happening on a modern car. I was shocked. I had a flood of transmission fluid. The replacement lines I bought from Subaru were of the same metal and poor quality. THEY WERE IN STOCK at the dealer. This tells me it is a known and common problem."

"Rough shifting when vehicle cold"

"The hood latch rusted shut so I could not open the hood...something I have never before had happen on a car. I put in a new latch myself from Subaru. I was shocked to find out that my local Subaru had a new hood latch in stock....thats nuts! That means they know its a problem because no dealer would normally stock something like a hood latch. The new latch has the same bare metal piece that rusted in place on my original latch. I saved the original latch if you want a picture just call---914-357-3445 Tom"

"Rear windows don't work. Been fixed several times and continue to not not work"

"Auto went through a period of time when it would not allow you to fill it up by leaving the gas nozzle in it without you physically holding the nozzle. Problem they just went away."

"Mechanic noticed slight oil leak around the rings. Not sure what this means other than they said I didn't need to fix it right away, because the cost is high, and I have to keep my eye on the oil level."

"Blowing hot air"

"At 50000 miles condenser sprung a leak. 900$ to fix at dealer"

"The rubber boots decayed prematurely"

"Had the radiator replaced."
