Subaru Legacy engine oil consumption issue on Subaru Legacy

Some Subaru Legacy owners report experiencing excessive engine oil consumption issues, particularly in models from 2011 to 2015, with some needing to add a quart of oil every month. This significant oil burning problem has also been noted in other models like the Outback, Forester, Impreza, and Crosstrek. Consumer Reports has identified certain older Subaru engines and model years that are prone to this issue. Owners with the FB engine are advised to visit their dealer for a free oil change and a follow-up appointment after 1200 miles if they encounter this problem. Furthermore, high oil pressure can lead to excessive oil flooding the engine, while natural wear and tear in aged engines may result in oil leaks, both of which can exacerbate the oil consumption issue in Subaru vehicles.
