My 2023 XT Limited is the 3rd Outback I've owned.
My 2023 XT Limited is the 3rd Outback I've owned. The first two were 2017/2019 Touring trim with a 2.5 non-turbo 4 cyl. We upgraded so we could tow but soon found out that the 2023 XT has insufficient transmission cooling for our little trailer (2,000lbs dry, car is rated for 3500 lbs). When asked, Subaru says the car wasn't really built to tow. Add to that the psychotic turbo lag/jump, esp. in town and the poor fuel economy & I wished I had never bought this car. Subaru dealer has no answers.

Air Does Not Work
Purchased new in January 2023. Has been in for the same repairs 3 times for air not working. Each time they replace the cockpit control unit and it still doesn't work. The only time is does work is when it is above 87 degrees and has been sitting outside all day in the sun.

Two things that need to be improved
Turn signals do not have a loud sound. They are very low My 2016 Outback has nice loud turn signals. You cannot turn your radio off. The only way not to hear it is to put the sound real low. Two major complaints I have
