I own a 2019 OB Touring with six cylinders. I’m the original owner. I’ve had numerous battery issues, but SOA replaced the DCM Module two years ago, and the battery has been working well so far. In April 2025, SOA also replaced my head unit at no cost to me. Additionally, there was a fuel pump recall several years ago. I get service at a local Subaru dealer, and I’ve been happy with their service. However, the windshields broke once from a stone hitting it, and they’re known for having low-quality windshields. So, I have insurance that covers a 50-dollar copay. Fuel economy isn’t the best, but I enjoy driving it and feel safe in it. Overall, I’m pleased with my car, and the biggest problem was my battery issues, which have been resolved for two years.

Pros: battery issues resolved, good service

Cons: low-quality windshields, poor fuel economy

Vehicle: Subaru Outback

Carglass ist halt ein "Hau Ruck Verein" in Fließbandabfertigung und verbaut billige Scheiben. Es gibt auch mehrere Berichte, dass Leute nach Carglass Scheiben Probleme haben was Stabilität betrifft und der nächste Steinschlag wieder folgt.

Cons: billige Scheiben, Stabilitätsprobleme, anfällig für Steinschläge
