Wow, how did Subaru get to the top, they had reliability issues for years ago
Member survey, not reality. This chart is worthless. Suby fanbois are nearly impenetrably stuck on how awesome their vehicles are. I’m surprised Tesla isn’t on the top.
It’s been over a decade since they’ve addressed their head gasket issues by many accounts (the most notorious large failure they were known for around 100k miles). The main problem they have right now is the infotainment is hot garbage and very integrated into the cars (cheap, slow, touch screen based controls) and using CVTs (which other manufacturers also are using to get better mileage ratings).
Toyota and Honda on the other hand followed Ford and installed rubber belts where there is oil in the engine and are seeing failures way earlier than what they were known for. I know some of these annoying things since we had to shop for a car due to someone crashing against our 2006 Honda recently. I say annoying since it seems every new car out there is made to break.
Yeah. Highly suspicious of Subaru’s ranking.
Their newer cars still have reliability issues. Especially the computer/ infotainment system.
I have a current gen Outback, and I have all the issues!
Admittedly, it very reliably goes down the road when I’m towing it with my truck.
