A common problem with the catalytic converter on models like the 2013 Subaru Outback or the 2017 Subaru Crosstrek is clogging or failure due to carbon buildup, often resulting from incomplete combustion or engine issues such as misfiring. This can lead to poor engine performance, reduced fuel efficiency, and the illumination of the check engine light. For vehicles equipped with the 2.5L non-turbo engine, the exhaust manifold with an integrated catalytic converter is particularly susceptible to damage from physical impacts or contamination from oil or coolant leaks. Regular maintenance and timely engine repairs can help prevent these issues.
