How reliable is a Subaru Outback?
I’m thinking about buying the Subaru Outback because I want the convenience of an SUV but not the size. I’ve heard good things about Subaru and I’m wondering if the Outback is reliable and a good purchase.

The reliability of a car is essential to avoid spending a chunk of change on maintenance and repair. Subaru has a long history of making reliable cars, and the
Subaru Outback
is no exception with a reliability score of 3.5/5 from RepairPal and 71/100 from J.D. Power. On average, the annual maintenance cost for an Outback is $607 compared to $573 for other midsize SUVs and $652 for all vehicles. The probability of a repair being a severe issue is just 12%. Overall, the Outback fares well—and while annual costs may be slightly higher than average, the likelihood of an expensive repair is minimal.
