2004 Subaru Forester X review from North America
"Excellent SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rattle in the front passenger door when the volume is turned up on the radio.
Bad brakes.
Dings easily in the parking lot.
General comments?
This car has been really good to me, it has not had any major or minor problems yet. The is great on gas mileage and the ride is really smooth, the car handles good OK on performance. One thing bad is the service it seems like the people ignore you on certain problems and are kind of rude also. Overall a really good SUV, I would definitely recommend Subaru to anybody and I would buy one again.
