| 7500 mi | First, this is my wife's car, and she generally makes her own service appointments and takes the car in, so I am not on top of all of the details regarding the issues and frustrations with the touchscreen system, but there are some. She has had it in a few times for updates and diagnosis of bugs or issues. There were several updates that needed to be done to the touchscreen firmware. There are known bugs and issues, but her car has been relatively trouble free. A friend of ours has a '19 or '20 Outback Limited, and she has had several issues with her infotainment system. |
