The Easiest Car Brand To Own, Maintain, & Repair?! | Subaru, Of Course! Here's Why!

I love Subaru because They're tough, reliable and affordable. Most mechanics I've talked to do not like Subies but after watching and listening to this video my faith with Subaru has been restored 👏😁 Thank you sir!

I've always been a Ford lady and worked on my own vehicles from the 1970s on. Due to a disability, it got where I could no longer do maintenance, and found a great local mechanic. He was thrilled when I recently downsized from my hulking Ford SUV for a Forester with 118K miles on it . He loves working on them. I looked at plenty of brands for months, as reliability is very important when disabled - nothing worse than broken down by the side of a remote road--, but it was your channel that convinced me to get a Subaru. Found this one, literally owned by a little old lady, who was glad to pass it on to another little old lady. Thanks from everyone involved, dear, your channel is a big help and guide.

My dad had a old 80's Subaru. He is a mechanic and I always remember him talking how easy it was to work on and fix.

I preach the word of Subaru everywhere I go. You can pull the engine within 45 minutes, you can also drop the transmission without pulling the engine, simple suspension setup that's easy to pull or work on, and parts compatability across all models. Great video!

Thanks for your videos. The Japanese have a word for this: Kaizen. Constant improvement.

Working on my own Subarus (5 of them😁) and doing everything on them has me believing that I'm a mechanic 😂 I recently replaced the shortblock on my 06 STI all by my self 💪🏽

I wouldn't have anything else. My first Subie was a 2004 Impreza, put 230K miles on it, and it was still going strong. Now I have a 2019 Crosstrek and I love it. The really nice thing is that nothing much goes wrong, other than normal wear items like brake pads, struts, etc.

Subaru mechanic here. Couldn’t agree more with you MrSubaru.

I’ve been in aviation maintenance for 35 years. Ease of maintenance is one of the main selling factors for my recent Subaru purchase. It seems Subaru took the TQM lessons from Deming to heart. Keep a universal drive train/chassis combination and make continuous improvements. This, by the way, is generally referred to as the American system of interchangeable parts that impacted manufacturing capacity during WWII. We’ve strayed from that.

I was a Hondas fan from 1995 all the way till 3 years ago. Then I changed to older Subarus and haven’t looked back. Great cars, easy to work and all very much alike on each generation! And with a mechanic like Robert and all his DIY videos, it’s a done deal! 😉

Ease of repair, parts/ junk availability across models, and cost of parts have made Subaru my favorite brand. I've fixed almost anything on a Subaru, including head gaskets in my driveway

I love that every accessory is right on top of the engine. Super easy to access. My mom had a Chrysler Sebring Convertible 2.4 i4 and my favorite pieces of bad engineering were that you have to take the wheel off and well liner to replace the battery, and you have to take the entire front bumper off to replace the passenger side headlight bulb. Subarus are so easy to work on and that’s why I love them. Even an oil change is just a 15 minute job!

subaru never should have stopped building the 6cyl , great engine, silky smooth

Having owned many different brands I have to say I agree. I only take my cars into dealer for recalls. Subaru’s easiest to work on.

I haven’t worked on a Subaru in 20 years nice to hear how simple they kept it. Thank you for helping me decide on going back to Subaru

I was looking for a reliable all wheel drive vehicle. I've started the process of buying a Subaru Crosstrek. All of these positive comments has really made me feel good about my purchase. Thanks to everyone who shared.

I live in Australia. I bought a 2003 Legacy RX sedan (we call it a Liberty) back in 2007 with 60,000 Km on the clock. It has been well maintained and loved and still drives like new. The only mods I did after purchase was to fit 18" rims and lower it a little for better handling. Other than normal maintenance items, this car has hardly cost me anything. I love it because it has a manual transmission which are hard to come by now. I might purchase a BRZ of GR86 in the near future just for a change but I'll still keep "Mr Reliable" as a second option. Hope you and your loved ones have a great Christmas. P.S. My car still looks great and has zero rust.

Just wanted to say since finding your channel I have become a Subaru fan. Previously I was following the shouting heads on YouTube trashing the brand believing their words and not seeing them actually show repairs. Through your videos I tried a few maintenance jobs and it straight forward and no longer will hesitate to work on one. I will also give Subaru bashers an argument when I come across one since i became a follower of yours. Stay well

Thanx for these videos. Just purchased a 2017 outback for my wife. This thing is ice metallic silver and loaded! Your videos taught us a lot and guided our hunt and purchase decision. God Bless you Brother.

my uncle worked for Hertz for more than 40 years. I asked him upon retirement, what is the most reliable car you guys have had. His reply was without hesitation, subaru.
