Since my 2018 Legacy 3.6r ( fully loaded) was unstable in handing at 65+ on highway, sold it last December and purchased CPO Hyundai Genesis 3.8 AWD Ultimate model. Took a 2,000 plus road trip to Florida in January through all sorts of very poor weather and it was rock steady. No buffeting, etc. Feel infinitely safer driving this vehicle and do not miss the Legacy at all. I was very disappointed with the Legacy, to say the least. Perhaps my Legacy had some flaw that was not able to be detected by the dealer, but I had two prior Subarus (both Foresters) and each had mechanical and design flaws, so I will never again consider a Subaru. Three times burned is enough. I have put 7000 miles on my Genesis since purchases, and have encountered absolutely no issues. The overall build quality appears vastly superior to the Legacy.

Please note I purchased the 3.6r after driving the 4 cylinder and my comments about the stability of the car apply to the 3.6r. The car has the correct tire pressure, etc. I agree with previous writers the oem tires are a disappointment. This is my last Subaru. My two prior Subarus (2000 and 2009,Foresters) were both lemons. Prior to the current models I owned a 2008 Hyundai Azera and a 2013 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 sedan and both were excellent over the road and in cross winds, had far better warranties and were without any discernable flaws.

I purchased a 2018 legacy 3.6r in December 2017. I test drove the 4 cylinder and noticed it unstable above 60 and in cross winds. After having it for 6 months and driven it 5000 miles, I am very unhappy with how unstable it is in mild cross winds and at speeds 65 plus. Today, while standing still in traffic waiting to make a left hand turn, I was amazed how the car seemed buffeted by cars passing by, and, I would like to note, it was not windy out. In my opinion, this should not occur in a car of this weight and especially for the top of the line Legacy.
