| Description of the problem | Purchased my 2011 subaru new and have always keep the upkeep. About a year ago my tierod in the front went bad and ruined my tires so had to get new tires. Then it started stalling all the time, and no one seemed to why. Once at an intersection which i was almost hit. Then had to change the timing belt, but knew this when i bought it. Then the muffler rusted and now i will have to change the head gaskets. I purchased this car because everyone said it would last forever. Well i guess it will if you keep fixing everything that is wrong with it. This is my first and last subaru i will ever buy. Had better luck with my old dodge caravan. |
