不可靠的,令人失望的
这辆车是我买的，我一直在保养。但当我在将近八年后把它扔掉时，已经行驶了84k英里，它的油漆已经褪色(猫是红色的)，需要进行以下重大(而且昂贵的)维修:两个前轮轴承，两个空调，一个后电梯门电机，以及整个齿条和齿轮更换。我喜欢这辆车的驾驶方式和外观，以及它的功能，但从可靠性的角度来看，这不是我所期望的。我的第一辆斯巴鲁，也是最后一辆。
不是我想要的斯巴鲁。
2015年的Forester Limited是二手车，行驶了45000英里。作为上世纪90年代的前斯巴鲁车主，我很喜欢它的可靠性和相对较低的拥有成本，所以有兴趣再次尝试这个品牌。自驾以来，只能本地和高速公路自驾，没有越野。崎岖的地形体验是一些市中心的坑洼。就座椅质量而言，这辆车不太舒服。不过，它相当宽敞，加上一个矮个司机(5英尺2英寸)，一个身高超过6英尺的人可以相当舒服地坐在后面的座位上。在后部舱口区域的存储是相当大的和良好的比例。电梯门的定位和大小，以作为一个雨盾相当好-你可以站起来几乎全高度在~6英尺2英寸的升降机门下。你听到路上的噪音。这不是一段安静的旅程。 The car has terrible acceleration. But then, it wasn't ever meant to be a performance ride. Just don't pull out in front of the semi when merging onto the interstate, ease off the gas and slip in behind him instead. Also, the CVT could fail at any time and without warning (trust me, i know), and you'll come to a complete stop quickly. Some costs of ownership having had the car for an additional 100,000 miles. Bearings on all four wheels replaced by 60,000 miles. Engine started to consume oil (1 Qt every 2,000-2,200 miles). Every time took in to dealer for oil change (3,000 miles) had to buy 1-2 quarts of oil to take home with us. Front bushings discovered split and replaced at 70,000 miles. CVT valve body/solenoids replaced at 115,000 miles. CVT drive chain broken at 140,000 miles (this is a $8,000 replacement cost). The upshot is if you like to keep your cars, plan on some very large bills coming due from the 80,000 to 150,000 mile mark. Is it worth it to keep a car to this many miles nowadays if you have the means to replace? Probably not. If you know you have to keep a car for this many miles - here's hoping you paid cash and didn't finance, or you may find yourself upside down with repair bills soon.
