Subaru Impreza Usados en Venta en Cincinnati, OH

I had problems with my Subaru Impreza right off the bat. I think that is partly why I wouldn't give this car a higher rating. Granted, the problems weren't major, but the inconvenience of having to take a brand new car in for service definitely left a sour taste in my mouth. First the right turn signal didn't work. Well, it worked, but the blinker blinked twice as fast as normal. A couple of "known issues" and "faulty parts" later it was fixed. Next came the console in the center of the front seats. The lid would not stay latched. The magnetic closure holding the cheap pieces of plastic together was broken from day one. Sure, the service department fixed it, but the aforementioned cheap plastic took a beating in the process. I've also had problems with the air conditioning hose leaking into the front passenger floor board and with the blower motor making awful noises during the years the car was parked outside. All of these problems were encountered in the first 1-2 years of ownership. Beyond the mild headaches these problems caused were the actions and reaction of the service department and the Subaru corporate offices to whom I complained of said poor service. While this rating is for the actual vehicle and not dealership from which it came, it is important to keep service in mind when purchasing any car. If you are going buy a car that has the potential of needing repairs, you at least want an honest, trustworthy, and expert service group working on the vehicle. I'm sorry to say I did not experience this with Subaru.

I wish I would have opted to get some additional features, such as the backup camera and the built-in GPS vs just getting the base model for the car.
