Subaru Impreza

"Total exhaust replacement due to deterioration of exhaust system. Basically rusted out"

"Two of the three catalytic converters failed a pressure test. When the check engine light and code came on, the car automatically disengages the traction control and cruise control and all kinds of lights go on the dashboard. There is no warning and it took considerable effort to diagnose the problem. Seemed awfully early to lose the catalytic converters."

"the exhaust manifold cracked and needed to be replaced and it's very expensive"

"suddenly wouldn't shift, then would, etc. It seems subaru clutches are going out about 65,000 miles the mechanic said"

"The clutch was no longer working correctly - ended up having to have the car towed to dealership for replacement"

"The throw-out bearing failed while driving. Entire clutch mechanism had to be replaced. $2,000.00"

"The cigarette lighter (or 12V connection) in the center armrest does not work with my USB charger. No electrical connection is made. It has never worked since I bought the car, and it seems to have the wrong shape to work with adapters that plug into cigarette lighters."

"Tail light went. Dealer replaced it free without appointment"

"The exterior left front turn light burned out. This caused the blinker to blink twice as fast, which is good, as it told me something was wrong. It was easily fixed."

"The engine is knocking and is consuming oil"

"Car in Subaru shop for 4 days. Head gasket leak and needed replacing. Probably original part."

"oil level drops 2 qts. between oil changes (3500 mi)"

"The moon roof leaked but was fixed at dealer"

"The car has multiple rattles due to the poor quality of the car"

"Rattle from back underside"

"Seemed to be low kilometres for this problem to arise"

"Bushings needed replacement"

"Road noise that turned out to require bearing replacement"

"My car started rough shifting last winter. Enough to scare me. After doing research online, he discovered it was a known Subaru problem with no recall. He topped off the transmission fluid and it still shifts rough in cold weather, but not as bad. I am selling my Imprezza even though it;s not paid off. I've never done this with any previous car. I normally put 100,000 to 200,000 miles on my car before I sell it."

"Have had fluid and filter replaced. This helped some, bit on strong acceleration, the transmission slips between 2nd and 3rd"

"My car came equipped with TomTom and the it started being a problem In February of 2015 with only 13,000 miles on it. The display would fail and the touch screen would also fail. The entire device failed by June and was replace with an aftermarket car stereo and I use my smart phone for nav."

"When we start the car, we have to manually connect the iphone7 with the car 5-7 times before it will pair. EACH TIME the car is started. This is ridiculous. We will NEVER again use a subaru factory radio. The fact that subaru was too cheap to ensure their radio works with the most popular brand of cell phone (Iphone) shows arrogance and insensitivity to customers needs. If this isn't done you cannot receive or make a hands free phone call in the car."

"Dealer diagnosed and replaced A/C compressor when cabin cooling failed."

"The catalytic converter needed to be replaced. It was covered under an extended warranty from Subaru CA"

"Had to replace the drive shaft"

"Due to the coronavirus and not driving the vehicle as often the battery has drained twice."
