THIS CAR SAVED MY BRAIN! Was recently T-Boned and a car with lesser safety design would have left me brain injured. The 2010 CVT is the best model year made due to beefier components. Mine rarely used oil, though some will. Almost always broke EPA mileage estimates in highway. Surprisingly capable off road. Superb in snow/rain. Saved Brain and nothing else matters!!!

We purchased a 2010 outback in 2015 with $54,000 miles. It now has $144,000 miles and decided to cut our losses on Mar 1, 2022. The car burned oil from the beginning and end. Wheeling Subaru ordered an ABS brake module Oct 2021 that cost $700.00 and never did come in. The ABS module repair was going to cost an additional $300.00. They never did receive that part. We always kept up on the repairs and took very good care of this car. Car came up for inspection Feb 2022. Two different mechanics told us the cross bars holding up the engine had to be replaced because they were rusted out. That would cost an additional $2200.00. Another garage told us the transmission was starting to go. My expectations for this car was greater than what it performed. We expected at least $200,000 miles before anything major happened. Big mistake. That was all the cons. The pros are that it was a champ in the snow and rain. Too bad it didn't last longer.

This car has been extremely reliable, getting good gas mileage, is in great shape inside and out and has been well maintained. It is a great car for family use with a good size cargo space, lots of legroom - I’m 6’2” and a smith ride. It has high safety ratings. It also has 4 wheel drive for excellent traction and off road travel.
