1. wheel bearings have consistently needed replacement starting 4 years after car purchased new. At $450 to $500 each time. This is a design issues and Subaru needs to pay of each replacement. 2. fuel line leak. This is very dangerous and again listed many many time on all Subaru fix web sites. Cost to fix $1600 and more if fuel tank needs replacing. Again, Subaru needs to deal with this. These have been happening since car purchased. Car has been well maintained since purchase.
