I was told my head gasket has to be replaced. My car does not even have 100,000 miles. Is it possible that some repairs where not done properly to cause the head gasket problem?
Does Subaru have faulty head gaskets to cause this problem?

head gaskets most commonly fail for one reason, overheating. has your motor overheated recently?
