Whoa! You're scaring me! I bought a used 2001 Subaru Outback VDC H6 3.0
http://cartest.ca/2001_subaru_outback_h6_30.htm
just over a year ago. I love that car. It has broken twice though. The
first was after I used the park brake. I don't normally, but I figure when
you buy a car, you make sure stuff works. The dealer fixed it. The second
was fairly recently. The tensioner pulley seized up and broke a belt. I
was pleasantly surprised to find that the then powerless steering was
driveable. But, other than that, oil and gas ... and fun in the snow.

My wife has a 2006 AWD Subaru. The transmission
probably the best thing on the car. It's only been in
the shop twice for that. It short-shifts and makes an
audible "bang" noise into third when cold. It went to
the dealer for its 12th time in 2 years on Friday.
It's a complete $33,000 piece of shit that should
never have seen the light of day. If anyone wants it,
make me an offer. Any offer. The dealer finally
decided to just give me another loaner indefinitely
until he fixes everything. The worst service
department I've ever seen didn't help either (Porsche,
Audi, Subaru, GM/Saab). They fired everyone a few
weeks ago and brought back some old timers and that
has really helped. Before this, I had over 750,000
miles on 4 Toyotas that never saw the inside of a
repair shop.
