I have a 2017 Forester XT with 131,000 miles - have only done routine maintenance and have had to replace brakes front and rear as well as both control arms and struts, all expected with this many miles on it. I plan to keep it for as long as I can. Love it!

Pros: love it, expected wear

Cons: replaced brakes, replaced control arms, replaced struts

Vehicle: Subaru Forester

Mileage: 131000 km

I do the minor maintenance myself: oil/filter, air filters, wiper blades.

I save enough $$ on the DIY portion, so I don't mind using my dealer for the other stuff: front & rear dif fluids, CVT fluid, brake fluid, brake pads, etc.

Pros: great work, trust dealer

Bro they're trying to fuck you hard. Take that vehicle somewhere else and never go back. No way the rear pads should be at 2mm after only 30k miles

Cons: rear pads worn quickly

Vehicle: Subaru Legacy

Mileage: 30000 km
