I agree, the problem is your dealer, not the manufacturer.
 
Plus, cross-posting is against the Town Hall rules.

Here you go, a story to counter your experience.
 
This guy's dealership actually bought back a brand new Subaru when the owner found his bad back just didn't agree with his Subaru's seats.
 
Incredible! Now that's service. Find a dealer like this one:

I bought a 06 Tribeca in April & suffer the same prob at 48kmh (29mph)
Still trying to sort out since April. They are offering new tyres & rims & then test drive to see if humming goes away...
Still waiting !!!!!!

RE: the owner that got his money back because of those seats...
 
My Tribeca seats are just not supporting my lower back like our other car does. There is no electronic adjustment to give lower lumbar support and on long trips I have to wedge a pillow back there. BAD DESIGN!!!!
 
However, I'd never return the car, but I'd like to find a nice leather wedge to match my light interior to give me that support instead of a bulky pillow on road trips.

Transmission Problems by flgirlaol

I'm still having Transmission problems.
 
It happens sporadically that I don't think the dealer will be able to find this problem! It happens every 2 to 3 days. Always in the mornings on the way out. I live in warm climate in FL so the engine isn't too "cold" but when I pull out into an intersection out of my development in the mornings......it's like I can't get into 1st gear...even though I'm in Drive it's in neutral and the engine roars but the car doesn't go anywhere. It's very dangerous because I'm getting ready to pull out in traffic and I nearly miss my moment to turn left. Sometimes it happens on my first left into a major intersection, other times it's my section left into an intersection. It's dangerous and embarrassing. BTW, I have a 2007 Tribeca
 
Do you think Suburu and fix this? What is this?

Slow to Shift by reginareb

I have an early 2006 Tribeca that takes awhile to shift, especially when passing. In fact, the rpm's shoot way up before there is any acceleration. Has anyone else experienced anything similar?

I'm having transmission issues too. Two separate occasions, leaks found in the transmission. What would make 2 hoses split? After the first leak was fixed, about a month later, I had another. It was the hose right next to the original leak? The engine "revs" without pressing the gas pedal, and sporadically when pressing the gas, it takes a few seconds for the car to accelerate. How was your issue resolved?
