Need to know what issues are inherent in a 05 legacy with auto. Stationwagon. not turbo...

 

thanks

only issue im aware of is if the climate control and radio is one piece there is intermittent failure but not very common. Other wise solid !

I just got an 06 outback in the Auto. has higher miles. Will see how it is when it arrives. wish you luck too.

 

From what i see, the 05 had a few smaller things.

1. Passenger side seat, the seatbelt warning sensor had a recall and it costs like 50 bucks to fix it at the dealer.

2. the side curtain airbags on the early 05 models had a rcall that they fix for free i believe, it involved the faulty bags not inflating fast enough in accidents, so they switch out the bags for you to a newer bag that inflates properly when needed.

3. not sure, but i think the tire pressure monitoring system in the 05 had hiccups too.

4. Door speaker quality issue for radio, speakers stop working at random, faulty manufacturer.

hopefully nothing more on.
