Is it common for the steering to feel "light" or "vague" in the 2009 Outback 3.0R? I went from a Jetta Sportwagen to an '09 OB this summer and have been really, really unimpressed with the OB's handling. Unlike the Jetta (and my '02 Outback) the steering feel and response is very "numb" with poor feedback and road feel. I've had the front end and alignment checked and everything is within spec and in very good shape. I'm wondering if the handling issue/feel is related to the tires. The dealer I bought the OB from put some low-end Uniroyal Tiger Paw Touring tires on it. I know they're generally not the best reviewed tires but I don't have the cash to cough up $900 for new rubber. Thoughts?
