Subaru Seizure
Back in February my wife and I spent $4,000 in repairs to her Subaru Legacy. Then in March, we spent another $1,300.00 in repairs.
On Monday morning the engine in our piece of crap Subaru seized. A new engine will cost $2,000. At this point I’m ready to start using public transit. With the money we wasted on the vehicle we could have purchased a TTC Metro Pass for over 3 years!
Seriously though, we’re looking at dumping the car and leasing a new Toyota Matrix for $200/month. Somehow we got stuck with a lemon. I’ll never purchase or recommend a Subaru vehicle again.

Hey Jay,
Check out the lease rates on the Pontiac Vibe. It might be cheaper It’s shares the same chasis and engine as the Matrix.

JB’s right. We looked at the Matrix before we went with the Mazda 3. Friends of ours have the Vibe, it is the exact same car as the Matrix but less expensive.
