First time Subaru daily driver

Have had it for a day. So far, so good. Really fun to drive. Still learning all the features. We'll see how things go in the future.

1 Day into our new ride

We've had our new car all of 1 day so I don't want to get too gushy yet but, so far, it's exceeding our expectations

Love Love Love This Car

This is such a smart care with eyesight technology.. practically drives itself. Once in cruise control it gauges distance to other cars and adjust speed accordingly. Comfortable ride. A bit slow on take off but I can live with that for all the other amazing features

Couldn't wait to get rid of it!!

This was my second subaru. I traded in a 2011 Forester that I loved. The crosstrek is extremely under powered. It was difficult to pull out in traffic or merge on the freeway. I regretted buying it before I got it home. I suffered through for six months before trading it in on a Honda civic. The sound system/camera control system was horribly buggy and would quit working randomly. The backup camera would lock up and there is no way to turn off the radio. You could turn it off while you were driving but as soon as you started the car back up, it would come on again.

Only 750 miles transmission bucking ,

It didn’t take long to fall OUT of love with this crossteck. The computer keeps too much control on steering car to the middle is annoying. The seats have the worst support, back and butt hurts after only 30 minute drive. Transmission is already acting up in slow traffic bucking Stuttering— gradually increase you back pain as you sink into seat as car gentle jolts fwd. drinks spill easy as the cup holders do not secure drink holder, can reach into center console to plug in your phone .

NIce car.

I love this car but very disappointed I had to replace brakes and rotors at $700 with only 21,000 miles on it. Didn't seem right.

Fun to drive

So far this car has met all my needs. I got the car in December 2018. I do a lot of highway driving and I am comfortable. The car gets great gas mileage. I drive over 500 miles in the work week and only have to fill it up twice. I like the blindspot, eyesight, and back up camera. I got the cool blue khaki and I love the color. Only issue I have is with the radio presets I save, when I turn the car on again they have disappeared.
