My 2003 Forester 2.5X which I purchased new in January seems to be developing a lot of dashboard rattles. There are plenty of creaks, clicks and pops mostly coming from the silver-colored center console around the auto transmission shifter. The whole console seems flimsy and has too many joints - it's just not solid enough.
Anyone else noticed this? This is my first Subaru and I must admit, I am disappointed to find that Subaru pays as little attention to this area as every other manufacturer. Frankly, I expected better from a car costing $30K CDN.
Hope it doesn't get any worse :(
