Primarily, the driver's seat is not comfortable. Back pain starts already after a 30 minute drive, you get legs cramps when you step out of the car. The seat configuration does not allow to adjust it for comfortable seating position due to poor design. Forester 2019 has the most adjustable seats from all Subaru line, but looks like the worse configuration overall. All existing adjustments still do not allow to seat comfortably even for a pretty short period of time. If you try to support the bottom part of the back, then upper part is not touching the seat and in the case of a rear accident, the injury chances are higher than average. If you adjust to support upper part, then lower part does not have any support and back hurts already after a 5-10 minute drive.
