Only 50K and having problems with noisy rear wheel bearings, looking at getting rid of my Forester 2016. Sorry I purchased a vehicle that thy said was highly rated. Looking for something dependable.
It's wheel bearings. Those can be affected on any vehicle. I have a 2016 Chevy Z71 that I had to replace the wheel bearing at 38,000. You drive the most reliable brand on the market. Quit complaining.

I had a Honda CRV 2012 that I traded for a Crosstrek. Supposedly Honda’s are dependable but this one had issues from day 1. I think you need to rethink your complaint, one problem and you are trashing a reliable and safe vehicle. Try several issues...and Honda pretending there were not problems with the CRV that year. 50 K...ha, I traded 40.

Bought a 2015 Forester absolutely loved it. The outdoor Temp guage wasn't working properly so Subaru gave me a new 2017 replacement Forester. Small rattle in the rear gate, Subaru approved a replacement 2018 .. NEVER had an auto maker stand behind a vehicle so much,! BTW, I'm a GM Family member and won't buy GM because of the major mechanical issues and super poor resale value..
Car replaced for extremely minor issues? If you're being sarcastic, I can't tell, but either way, your experience (if its even real) is a 1 off experience. In no way should your experiece influence anyone's impression of the brand.

I own 2 outbacks. 2011 and 2017. Both vehicles are fantastic. Dealer - Liberty Subaru does a great job. I will purchase from them again.
