After taking my Subaru forrester in for a recall for a valve in the gas tank. I was told the headgasket leaked and needed replacement! during the repair of the headgasket I received a call from the dealership informing me I also had a cracked cylinder head. This is my 4th Subaru I never experienced anything like this before. When I researched the issue I noticed that Subaru had a ton of headgasket recalls starting in 1997. There seems to be a general lack of quality in regards to this.
