I don't believe that. I'm coming from Nissans VQ engine that I've had in different cars since 1995 and followed all the forums with those vehicles (maxima/I30). During those years, never so many post about engine failures as I am seeing here. Also, when doing Google search for rod knock, the Subaru boxer seems to be a frequent search result.
Yes, I can accept to a certain degree engine issues, especially in a new design and in a great car like the BRZ, but not when the dealers often try to blame the drivers. Subaru needs to acknowledge the issue and take care of their owners!
