Hi, Has Subaru fixed the problem with head gasket failures on the new( present ) 3th generation 2.5L unturbo engines.Thanks for all your help.

Subaru has used the terms first, second, etc generation in different ways so I have lost track of what they mean.  If you are asking about the FB engine, which has been on the outback from 2013, then the answer is in all probability they have solved the problem. 

better off using years than "generation" as said.

 

all EJ25 engines have headgasket issues to varying extents and failure modes.

FB25 so far don't have issues but there hasn't been significant time for them to show issues yet either. the redesign and I think coolant not passing between heads and block give it a good chance of being less problematic if we want to guess.
