2000 Subaru Outback review from North America
"Great car, but with out Subaru to back it up with a proper recall its not worth it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head gasket blew at 110000.
General comments?
The left head gasket blew at 110000 even after the dealer had put in the special goo to the coolant to fix the issue. I can't believe that Subaru knowing about this fault dreamed up the idea that, we'll just add some goo to the coolant and call it good. I think what they did is to have it last until 100000 miles and then say too bad. well I think its too bad on Subaru. a proper recall would do wonders for Subaru.
