I bought my car brand new and about six months after owning it my check engine, hazardous roads and cruise control lights came on. This has continued to happen numerous times since. I have been told it's a sensor, mass airflow sensor. Ocv valves and "maintenance" light. The problem has never truly been resolved and no one has been able to tell me what the root of the problem is. There have been times when service workers have just cleared the computer and sent me on my way.

My car has an uneven steering effort. The steering is tighter and more difficult to steer when driving, while turning right. The problem is getting worse in the two years I've owned this car. A service bulletin was released 7/24/18, number: 04-21-18, showing several models of Subaru's have this steering issue. I have attached the bulletin below for your review. The bulletin says, "if a crack is confirmed, the eps steering gear box assembly must be replaced." The word "must" tells me it is an important safety issue. Shortly after purchasing this car, I returned it to the Subaru dealership and was told there was nothing wrong with the steering.
