2003 Subaru Forester Subaru review from North America
"Inferior.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced T/Belt, told by dealer oil pump had a leak, needs replacing...
Picked up my Forester, engine light came on...
Dealer tells me my catalytic converter should be replaced..
Dealer also checked my brakes, for the life of me, I do not know how they could screw that up, almost new set of brakes, not put on by Subaru, I had to take my car back to the original brake mechanic and have my brakes adjusted.
I will not jeopardize my family, for get Subaru.
General comments?
Not worth the money.
