2018 Crosstrek rear hubs.

[JOE LEO]

I just dropped my Crosstrek off at the dealer for rear hubs. After research we discovered that Subaru knows that the hubs go bad at specific mileages as a manufactured design defect. Spoke with the dealer and Subaru corporate and got the same answer. Warranty is expired and your cost for repair is 1200.00. No negotiating, no accommodation just pay. I need this piece of garbage as my commuter so what choice do I have. My son also has a Subaru Legacy which needed a new engine and trans shortly after we bought it. My consumer decision is that my family will never purchase another Subaru, and I will discourage anyone I speak with from buying a Subaru. Poorly made and corporate just does not care.
