Subaru seat problems
Owners have filed 459 complaints with NHTSA about the seats on Subaru vehicles — 100% of everything reported about the brand, across 14 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Subaru Forester, worst in 2010.
These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
