| Model | FORRESTER | |
| What things have gone wrong with the car? | HAD ENGINE NOISE SINCE I PURCHASED WORSE WHEN COLD UNTIL WARMED UP. SUBARU CLAIMS THIS IS COMMON ON SOME VEHICLES. I SAY DESIGN FLAW. MY VEHICLE NOW HAS 87,000 MILES NOISE IS CONSTANT AND GETTING WORSE NOW A VERY METALIC SOUND. BEEN IN TOUCH WITH SUBARU OF AMERICA. AM WAITING TO SEE IF THEY WILL HELP WITH REPAIRS. IF YOU HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS CONTACT SUBARU OF AMERICA. LET THEM KNOW AT SUBARU OF AMERICA.COM | |
| General comments? | LESS THAN SATISFACTORY. HAD OIL PUMP LEAK AT 58,000 MILES DEALER DID NOT STOCK 6.00 DOLLARS WORTH OF O-RINGS FOR REPAIR DOWN FOR OVER A WEEK. ENGINE NOISE AT 40,000 MILES HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE SUBARU WONT ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM ON 2500 CC ENGINE. STILL WAITING TO SEE IF THEY WILL HELP WITH REPAIRS BEEN OVER 2 WEEKS SINCE I CONTACTED THEM. EVEN DEALER THINKS THEY SHOULD HEPL OR FULLY REPAIR | |
