The Subaru B9 Tribeca, launched in 2006, was a daring attempt by Subaru to enter the mid-size crossover SUV market. This three-row, seven-passenger vehicle aimed to offer the brand's renowned all-wheel drive capability and ruggedness, while catering to families seeking a more spacious and luxurious experience compared to the popular Outback. The Tribeca's design was polarizing, featuring a distinctive hexagonal grille and a unique, boxy shape. It was available with a 3.6-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine, producing 256 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque. This engine was mated to a five-speed automatic transmission, sending power to all four wheels through Subaru's famed symmetrical all-wheel drive system. The B9 Tribeca offered a comfortable interior with ample space for passengers and cargo, as well as a suite of features including automatic climate control, power seats, and a premium sound system. Despite its unique design and capable engineering, the B9 Tribeca faced challenges in the competitive crossover market. The vehicle was criticized for its handling, which lacked the agility expected from a Subaru, and its fuel economy, which was less efficient than some rival models. Additionally, the Tribeca's reliability proved to be a concern, with reports of common issues including engine problems, transmission failures, and electrical glitches. While the B9 Tribeca offered a distinct alternative in the crossover segment, it ultimately failed to gain significant traction in the market. Production ceased in 2014 after a relatively short lifespan, leaving its legacy as a somewhat forgotten chapter in Subaru's history. However, for those owners who still cherish their B9 Tribeca, a well-maintained workshop service repair manual can prove invaluable in ensuring the longevity and proper care of this unique and capable vehicle.
