Every car company has its issues so put this in perspective.

Although this latest news doesn't mention the Forester, obviously each piece of bad press is not a positive for the Subaru Brand.

Segment from todays news:

In Japan, Mr. Okada said that Subaru was struggling with problems on his inspection lines at a factory where the company acknowledged that workers were conducting vehicle tests improperly. He said efforts to ensure vehicles are properly inspected slow down production. The company said Monday that it would recall another 100,000 cars in Japan due to newly discovered problems relating to vehicle inspections. Mr. Nakamura, Subaru's chief executive, said he was very concerned about the quality struggles of Subaru, which he accused of growing too quickly."There have been a lot of problems with with recall related issues lately, which could probably be attributed to excessive stretching for growth," stated Nakamura.
