Subaru Outback Reliability

You spend a good amount of time in a vehicle, whether that's to go to work, run errands, or take a family vacation. As such, it's important to be in one that's highly dependable for your peace of mind.

The 2019 Outback is a great example of such a car. This is especially the case since it received a 2019 TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).*

Below, we'll cover the Subaru Outback reliability and how that can impact your drives around Wakefield, Reading, and Danvers. Then, feel free to contact Ira Subaru with any questions or to see the crossover in person.

Active Safety Features

The 2019 Subaru Outback offers lots of features to help prevent collisions from occurring. They stem from EyeSight®, a suite of driver-assisting technologies that comes standard.

Some of the features found in this collection are:

• Pre-Collision Braking: Can hit the brakes if you're getting too close to a car or person.
• Adaptive Cruise Control: Will help you maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, no matter how fast or slow traffic is going.
• Lane Keep Assist: Will send an alert if you start to drift from your lane. Then, it can take over and gently steer your Outback back into the center of your lane.

With EyeSight®, you'll be warned to things you might miss while driving-whether that'd be with a visual and/or audible alert. It's to keep you more aware of your surroundings and help avoid any accidents.

Passive Safety Features

If a collision were to occur, though, you can rely on the 2019 Outback passive features to help keep you protected.

The vehicle comes with an advanced airbag system that includes:

• Driver and front passenger seat cushion airbags
• Seat-mounted front side impact airbags
• Side curtain airbags

Plus, it has a solid build, with a ring-shaped Reinforcement Frame and collapsible steering column. Together, energy is absorbed and force impact is minimized-reducing the chance of bodily injury.

Furthermore, the vehicle offers STARLINK™ Safety and Security connected services. If an airbag is deployed, an Automatic Collision Notification is sent to first responders. Plus, if your car breaks down while driving, Enhanced Roadside Assistance can be used to get help right away.

Dependable Performance

In addition to having advanced safety features, the Subaru Outback offers a reliable performance on any type of road.

This is partly due to the fact that the vehicle comes standard in Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD). The system lies along the centerline of the automobile, balancing weight distribution between the two sides. The result is optimum traction and control on even the slickest surfaces.

This crossover is designed for off-road traveling, as well. It has 8.7 inches of ground clearance for rockier terrain. Plus, it comes standard with X-MODE®, which incorporates the AWD system as well as Hill Descent Control. That last feature will keep a steady speed when driving downhill for your convenience.

Test Drive the 2019 Subaru Outback

Between the safety features and performance, the 2019 Subaru Outback comes across as a highly reliable automobile. To experience this for yourself, though, you'll need to get behind the wheel near Wakefield, Reading, or Danvers.
