1999 Subaru Impreza Outback review from North America
"A Dream to Own"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1. Oxygen Sensor
2. Knock Sensor
3. CD Player
4. Airbag Sensor
General comments?
Love this car. It has been so reliable and goes anywhere! The looks are aggressive and the ride is comfortable. However, the seats are a little on the cheap uncomfortable side... but overall okay. The knock sensor was the first thing that needed replacement, but with 190k miles already on it, it was no big deal. Real easy to change. Then the Oxygen sensor needed changing, also no big deal. These vehicles are a dream to work on. The CD player was factory and the lights quit working and then it quit working all together. Overall I would recommend this car to anyone.
