2003 Subaru Forester issues: Should I cut my losses and get a different vehicle?

[vortalexfan]

The other issue I had with my Forester that was kind of annoying (and it was a common issue on the 2003-2008 model year Foresters) was that the door seals had failed on the car so when I would drive at highway speeds I would hear a lot of road noise (wind noise) coming through the doors, this was because the 2003-2008 model year Foresters used a pillarless design for the doors (the A-Pillar was absent on the doors like on many of the old American Cars back in the 1960s where the windows had no frame around them.)
