General comments?
This is absolutely the worst car I've ever owned. Since the day I drove it off the lot I've had nothing but problem after problem. Even worse, I have an extended warranty, but Subaru of America REFUSES to repair my car! I'll never purchase another Subaru product, and I would urge you to look very carefully before you purchase one. What good is a warranty if the manufacturer refuses to honor it?
