problem #1

Forester 4 cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 510 miles

Bought a 2009 Subaru Forrester new with about 400 miles on it, a few days after we got it home the AC unit stopped working. Brought back to dealer, dealer found no refrigerant in the lines and re-charged the AC. Few days later no AC again, Dealer found the compressor was faulty and had to be replaced. Have about 6200 miles on it now and so far no other problems.
