Asked by saturn97lover Jan 28, 2019 at 11:13 PM about the 2018 Subaru Forester 2.5i Premium

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Yeah I contacted
SOA there all fill
of shit. They
know they're
cars are junk!
Consumption
test is a joke.
Just a way to
make you
believe there
gonna hello you
with the problem
you bought there
piece of shit.
They did
NOTHING for me
besides a run
around and
make believe it's
not happing.
They over fill
your oil by a half
to a full quarter
of oil hoping it
will take longer
to run dry. One
full year of run
around..   done
with SUBARU.
Traded that heat
of oil burning
JUNK in today.
Too a $7000
dollar lose, but
glad to be rid of
it. NEVER EVER
AGAIN. Hope
they go out of
business.

Sorry to hear that I'm going through the same bs...shortblock was replaced and guess what, oil light came back on smh was just told today the car will need a new engine...I have literally been emailing soa rep everyday to update every inconvenience they are putting me through and made it very clear I will not be taking the car back...I'm trying to avoid taking a huge loss like you had to...did your Subaru have a manual transmission? What car did you end up trading for?
