I traded my 2018 Outback Touring with 111,000 miles for a 2020 Outback Touring.
After my first oil change I started having a hesitation type issue. At 78 MPH or so the engine or transmission would stumble repeatedly, lose speed and drop in fuel mileage drastically. Eventually the air conditioner would stop blowing cold during the hesitations.
Within the three times the car was in the shop the ignition coils were replaced, the transmission was relearned and the fuel system and transmission was checked for the correct pressure. The last attempt included emptying the fuel tank, flushing the system and refilling the tank with premium gas. Nothing fixed the issue.
My car was in the shop for 40 days over 2 months when Subaru decided that they were going to evoke Lemon Law and started the repurchase process.
I bought the car 4/11/20 and Subaru repurchased the car 9/7/20.
