I bought a used 2007 Subaru Forester and it has required a couple of large repairs that you wouldn't expect. In 2015 I had to replace the oil head gasket at relatively low miles 70k and now in 2019 at 104k miles I have to replace the transmission. Is common in the Subarus? I'm really strapped for cash and the estimate was between 2-3,000 dollars. It seems for such low mileage I shouldn't have had 2 major issues with this car.
