First post here and glad to have found this place. My daughter has a 2015 4 cyl Forrester. 32k miles. Apparently, this is a known problem. Our independent shop mechanic has had several customers with recent Subaru's getting new engines. She has been into the dealer and her car falls just outside the Vin # Oil Consumption Test which apparently is the new motor trigger. She took it into the dealer at 27k miles. Dealer agreed that it was an oil consumption issue, but being out of the vin range they won't do the test. I should point out that my girls knows how to deal with people that try to blow her off. The dealer said, "Bring it in every 1200 miles". Sure, she is self employed and works her rump roast off so that isn't happening. What would you suggest as a way to deal with this? I should add that this car has been a problem with a lot of little things. Trim falling off, tailgate randomly opens (be out of town at a hotel and come out in the morning with the tailgate open and this is not uncommon), and on and on. To bad really, we have always bought Subs because of good quality and good value.
