2002 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport review from North America
"A great reliable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The dealer said that the head gaskets had to be replaced under warranty even though I did not see anything wrong with it.
Rear brakes started to squeal a little bit.
General comments?
This car is a joy to drive, and it handles great.
It is very versitile because of the rear hatch. It seems to swallow everything.
The rear seat is a tad bit cramped.
This car has been incredibly reliable for a car with 130000 miles on it and I am impressed that nothing more has gone wrong with the car.
But dealer service has not been the best.
I strongly reccomend this car to anyone and I would definetly buy another car from Subaru.
