CAR HESITATES ON ACCELERATION PERSISTS AFTER RECALL (REPLACEMENT OF IGNITION COILS). CONDITION PERSISTS SINCE PURCHASE (NOV, 2019). NUMEROUS REPAIR ORDERS DID NOT CORRECT PROBLEM.

2019 Subaru Crosstrek Left rear window ( driver’s side) window shattered without warning. There was a recall issued for this exact problem - but the time frame for the recall was narrow and my car was not included as it was just shy of the start date for the recall although manufactured in the same month. Subaru’s number for this recall is WUG-92. The child car seat was covered in glass and shards of glass were embedded throughout the car. The fact that the car was parked with no one in it does not lessen the reality that this would have been a tragic incident for the child and anyone in the car or near the car especially if we had been driving on a highway. Subaru has been contacted and took all the information. I am documenting this for a warning to other Crosstrek owners to be aware that this is known to happen without warning until Subaru notifies them of this potential danger. Hopefully the recall will be expanded to avoid harm and injury.

The windshield cracked seemingly at random during the winter. It was approximately 15 degrees on I-70 in CO on December 11, 2020. The windshield suddenly cracked with no indication of impact. It was a 6 inch crack. The windshield appears prone to cracking as evidenced by 1000s of other consumer complaints.

On June 25, 2021 we had driven from Seattle to Spokane, WA and stopped at the Sprague Lake Rest Stop. When we returned to our car and sat in the car for about 15 minutes our car failed to start. The temperature outside was about 100 degrees. After 3 attempts by fellow travelers Roadside Assist and a Tow Driver our car failed to start so it was towed to the Suburu dealer in Spokane Washington where a battery was replaced. The only reason that was given for the failure was that we sat in the car for a time before we started the car and the batter;y was drained because of the presence of the keys. Our batter has failed on 3 other occasions. Because we do occasional car trips we no longer feel safe in this car

I’m having continuous problems with my car not starting or a dead battery. It has been in for for service 3x for this issue abc one of those times they replaced the battery. On 6/24/21 I picked up my car from the service department after leaving it there for several days only for them to tell me nothing is wrong with my car. 20 minutes later and my car won’t start which I captured on video. This car seems to have an electrical issue that no one wants to admit to.

CAR HESITATES ON ACCELERATION.

I received 2 recall notices in the mail from Subaru 0n 6/16/2021. I immediately contacted the selling dealer, Dunning Subaru, Ann Arbor Michigan and was advised that they could not even give me a date in July when the vehicle could be repaired, but they would add my name to a waiting list for appointments. I contacted Subaru customer service for assistance and was told I would have to find a local retailer on my own and that though they said the vehicle was not safe to drive, they refused to offer and substitute transportation until the vehicle could be repaired. I contacted LaFontaine Subaru, Commerce Twsp, Mi and was advised that they have been unable to order sufficient parts for this recall and while the earliest available appointment was for July 7th (3 weeks from today) they could not guarantee that they would have the parts on that date to actually perform the repair. In short, Subaru produced a defective vehicle; advised me it was not safe to drive the vehicle; is unable to repair the vehicle in a reasonable timeframe; and refuses to provide substitute transportation. What is the good of a recall program if repairs can't be made and the customer is stuck without transportation; and the company response is essentially - "it's the customers problem to deal with - have a nice day!"

The EyeSight turned off and would not turn back on. Then the airbag symbol lit up on the dashboard. My cruise control and lane assistance were not working as well. If I had been involved in an accident, the airbags would not have deployed. The warning messages appeared about 3 weeks ago.

I BOUGHT MY CAR IN MEXICO AND HAVE MOVED TO NORTH LAS VEGAS NEVADA. THE DEALER WILL NOT MAKE THE NECESSARY SAFETY REPAIRS UNDER THE RECALLS. WHAT DO I DO? DO I HAVE AN UNSAFE CAR?

THE WINDSHIELD ON MY SUBARU CROSSTREK WHICH WAS PURCHASED NEW FROM A DEALER IN JULY 2019 HAS ALREADY SUFFERED 2 RANDOM CHIPS IN THE WINDSHIELD & TODAY AS I WAS DRIVING THE WINDSHIELD SPLIT SPONTANEOUSLY WITH A 7 INCH CRACK IN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT AREA FROM PREVIOUS REPAIRED CHIPS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

I'VE HAD REPEATED PROBLEMS WITH THE 12V BATTERY IN MY 2019 SUBARU CROSSTREK HYBRID. THE VEHICLE HAS SOME SORT OF ELECTRICAL "LEAKAGE" ISSUE THAT DRAINS THE BATTERY AFTER SITTING FOR A FEW DAYS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY INOPERATIVE; CAR WILL NOT START, YOU CANNOT EVEN UNLOCK THE DOORS. IN 18 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP, THE CAR HAS STRANDED ME SEVERAL TIMES. ONE INCIDENT JUST REQUIRED A JUMP START, BUT DURING THE LATEST INCIDENT THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD AND HAD TO BE TOWED ON A FLAT BED TRUCK TO THE DEALER FOR A NEW BATTERY AND OTHER REPAIRS. IN ALL OF THESE CASES, ALL ACCESSORIES, LIGHTS, OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT COULD DRAIN POWER WAS OFF WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE CAR THAT IS DRAWING POWER WHEN IT IS OFF AND DRAINS THE BATTERY WITHIN DAYS.

STARTER FAILED AT 50 K MILES LEFT ME STRANDED

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK IN THE MORNING, MY WINDSHIELD ALL OF A SUDDEN CRAKED. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES AROUND ME SO IT WASN'T A ROCK THAT HIT MY WINDOW, THE CRACK ON THE WINDOW ITS ABOUT AND ONE INCH. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE SUBARU DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT CRACK WAS TOO BIG TO BE FIX, WE PAID EXTRA AT THE TIME OF PURCHASED FOR A PACKAGE THAT WOULD COVER DINGS AND WINDOW REPLACEMENTS AND THEY ARE NOT FOLLOWING THE PROMISE.

MY SUBARU CROSSTREK IS A 2019 - LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD AND STILL COVERED BY WARRANTY. IT HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY CARED FOR AND ONLY DEALER SERVICED. 3 DAYS AGO THE CAR'S ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE WE WERE DRIVING IT. THERE WAS A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER TO THE BRAKES AND STEERING. WE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN IMMEDIATELY TO THE DEALER SERVICE I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GOING TO, AND THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. IN HIS OWN WORDS, THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID "I WOULD NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE LETTING MY FAMILY OR LOVED ONES USING YOUR CAR" - BUT HE OFFERED NO HELP. HE SAID THAT THEY CAN'T FIND A PROBLEM, THEY CAN'T FIND AN ERROR CODE, AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE GIVEN THAT A SERIOUS, DANGEROUS, HAZARDS, AND POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING ENGINE FAILURE OCCURED WITH NO APPARENT CAUSE IN A BRAND NEW CAR. THE FACT THAT THE SERVICE MANAGER HIMSELF SAID THAT IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE BUT COULDN'T OFFER ANY EXPLANATION OF WHY THE INFORMATION OCCURED IS VERY FRUSTRATING. THE DEALERSHIP IS GIVING ME A DANGEROUS CAR BACK WITH NO KNOWLEDGE OF HOW TO FIX IT OR WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. IF THE ENGINE DIES ON THE HIGHWAY OR ON A CROWDED STREET, IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IN WHICH MYSELF AND OTHERS ARE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 SUBARU CROSSTREK. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO BILL RAPP SUBARU (3446 BURNET AVE, SYRACUSE, NY 13206, (315) 437-2501) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH UNKNOWN ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 24,680.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY 1 AND MY DRIVER'S RIGHT SIDE WINDOW SUDDENLY EXPLODED AND SHATTERED INTO A THOUSAND PIECES, RAINING GLASS DOWN ALL OVER ME. I DIDN'T HAVE A CRACK PREVIOUSLY AND A ROCK DIDN'T HIT IT SO THERE WAS NOTHING TO CAUSE THIS. THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS ON THE HIGHWAY AT THE TIME. THE CAR ONLY HAS 13K MILES SO THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN, BUT I'VE SINCE FOUND OUT THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT WITH NEWER SUBARUS SO THEY SHOULD FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS REALLY HURT.

WINDSHIELD CRACKING. WAS REPLACE AND CRACKED AGAIN.

WINDSHIELD CRACKED IN COLD WEATHER WHILE WARMING UP. DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FELL OFF AS I WAS DRIVING AS WELL.

THE WINDSHIELD IS CRACKED WITH NO VISIBLE CHIPS OR DAMAGE CAUSING THE CRACK. I HAVE NEVER HAD A ROCK FLY AND HIT THE WINDSHIELD OR ANYTHING. IT SEEMS TO HAVE CRACKED WITH NO APPARENT REASON.

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON; THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN NOTICED AND IT APPEARS THIS DID NOT OCCUR DURING TRAVEL.

ROCK HIT MY WINDSHIELD ON A HIGHWAY. 2 HOURS LATER AND LONG CRACK APPEARED- 8 INCHES

THE WINDSHIELD HAS CRACKED WITHOUT CAUSE. THANKFULLY THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED WHILE IT WAS PARKED. CRACKING ALL ON ITS OWN WITHOUT BEING HIT OR DAMAGED IS INCREDIBLY FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS.

EVER SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE CAR MAY 2019 I HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM OF DANGEROUS UNSTABLE STEERING WHEN IT AUTOMATICALLY DEPARTS FROM LANES AT SPEEDS ABOVE 50 MPH IN ALL WEATHER CONDITIONS WET SUNNY MOUNTAINS HILLY WHEN IT PUTS ALL US IN DANGER WHEN THA DRIVER HAS TO ADJUST THE CAR. TWICE I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND NO ACTION WAS TAKEN AND WE REMAIN APPREHENSIVE ABOUT DRIVING OUR LESS THAN 6000 MILES. IT IS UNSAFE AND DANGEROUS. CAN ANY THING BE DONE.

STATIONARY. BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED 4 TIMES. FIRST SUBARU SAID THAT IT NEEDED TO BE STARTED EVERY COUPLE OF WEEKS. THEN THEY SAID THAT IT HAD TO BE STARTED OR DRIVEN EVER WEEK. NOW THEY SAY IT HAS TO BE DRIVEN "MORE" AFTER PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS HAVE BEEN FOLLOWD. BATTERY DIES, BECOMES DEFECTIVE, AND DEALERSHIP REPLACES IT.

WINDSHIELD CRACKED DURING COLD WEATHER. WINDSHIELD SEEMS TO BE DEFECTIVE.

THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED VERY EASILY FROM A SMALL ROCK HITTING IT WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CRACK THEN QUICKLY INCREASED IN SIZE BEFORE WE REPLACED IT. THE SAME THING HAPPENED BEFORE AND WE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE OUR WINDSHIELD TWICE IN ONE YEAR.

ORIGINAL BATTERY FAILED 5 TIMES IN 6 MONTHS AND WAS FINALLY REPLACED BY DEALER. SECOND BATTERY FAILED AFTER A MONTH AND HAS NOW BEEN REPLACED AGAIN BY DEALER. VEHICLE HAD BEEN DRIVEN FOR 20 MINUTES OR MORE AT LEAST TWICE A WEEK BEFORE THE 2ND BATTERY FAILURE.

VEHICLE BATTERY WILL NOT HOLD POWER. VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN ON AND REQUIRES CHARGING BEFORE IT WILL TURN ON. HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES IN LAST MONTH. VEHICLE STATIONARY.

I WOKE UP ONE MORNING AND WHEN I WENT TO MY CAR THAT WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY OVERNIGHT I SAW A CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD THAT WAS NOT THERE WHEN I GOT HOME THE NIGHT BEFORE. THE CRACK LOOKS LIKE IT STARTS WHERE THE DE ICER IS LOCATED ON THE BOTTOM OF THE PASSENGER SIDE.

DRIVERS SIDE WINDSHIELD CRACKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. WAS DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT AWAY, WITH NO CARS IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME, DOING ABOUT 55MPH. PAID $240.00 TO HAVE REPLACED. I DO NOT HAVE PHOTO. JUST CREDIT CARD PAYMENT TO GLASS COMPANY.

FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACKED WHILE DRIVING ON I-65. MY SPEED WAS 75 MPH. I DID NOT HEAR ANYTHING HIT THE WINDSHIELD. TRAFFIC WAS VERY LIGHT.

FOR THE THIRD TIME, THE BATTERY ON THIS CAR NEEDS TO GO BACK FOR SERVICE - THE CAR IS HOUSED IN A GARAGE ON OUR PROPERTY AND IS TURNED ON EVERY 3-4 DAYS. THIS MORNING AND TWICE BEFORE THE CAR DOESN'T START. IN THE PREVIOUS 2 TIMES THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD AND I HAD TO JUMP START IT AND TAKE IT TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY SAID THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY. THIS MORNING WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, THE LIGHTS WERE FLASHING BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT TURN OVER. THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH OUR LAST SUBARU A 2015 SUBARU IMPREZA. WE FEEL THE CAR SHOULD NOT NEED TO BE STARTED EVERY DAY NOR SHOULD WE NEED TO PUT ON A TRICKLE CHARGER AS SUGGESTED BY JEFF AT PAUL MILLER SUBARU WHO I UNDERSTAND IS THE SERVICE MANAGER THERE IN PARSIPPANY, NJ WHERE WE BOUGHT THE CAR. THE CAR WAS PARKED INSIDE THE GARAGE. ALSO WHENEVER WE WERE ABLE TO TURN ON THE CAR, THE RADIO COMES ON IMMEDIATELY. I THINK SOMETHING ELSE IS DRAINING THE BATTERY AND IS PROBABLY A DESIGN DEFECT. WE LAST STARTED THE CAR AND DROVE IT ON WEDNESDAY EVENING. THE HAD THIS PROBLEM YESTERDAY.

A FEW DAYS AGO I WENT OUT TO MY SHOP TO GET IN MY CAR TO GO TO WORK AND WHEN I GOT IN MY CAR I NOTICED A GIANT CRACK IN THE WINDOW THAT IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDOW DOWN AT THE BOTTOM AND IT STARTS UNDER THE WIPERS AND IS ABOUT 6 INCHES LONG. THEN A FEW DAYS WENT BY AND I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AGAIN ON THE HIGH WAY IN THE RAIN AND IT CRACKED ANOTHER 2 INCHES.

STRUT HAS CREAKING SOUND DURING DRIVING IN CITY TRAFFIC. ON HIGHWAY THERE IS HARDLY ANY NOISE AND WORKS FINE. DEALER SUGGESTED STRUT REPLACEMENT BUT NOT UNDER WARRANTY SINCE IT WAS IN ACCIDENT IN THAT AREA 6 MONTHS AGO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 SUBARU CROSSTREK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED AT THE LOWER SECTION ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE. THE CAUSE OF THE CRACK WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THERE WAS NO IMPACT TO THE WINDSHIELD PRIOR TO THE CRACK BEING NOTICED. THE LOCAL DEALER MCGOVERN SUBARU LOCATED AT 203 LAFAYETTE RD, NORTH HAMPTON, NH 03862 WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT YET CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD OF THE VEHICLE HAS DEVELOPED A LARGE CRACK FOR APPARENTLY NO REASON. THE CRACK APPEARED BEHIND THE REARVIEW MIRROR AND WAS APPROXIMATELY 6" ACROSS. SINCE THEN, THE CRACK HAS EXTENDED TO NEARLY A FOOT ACROSS.

2 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE I NOTICED A SMALL CRACK IN MY WINDSHIELD THAT HAS SINCE STARTED TO BECOME LONGER. NO ACCIDENTS OR FALLING OBJECTS THAT COULD HAVE CREATED THE CRACK.

WINDSHIELD IS VERY EASILY CRACKED OR CHIPPED FROM THE SMALLEST PEBBLES HITTING IT WHILE GOING EVEN 35 MPH. WITH THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, GETTING THE WINDSHIELD FIXED AND THE SENSORS RECALIBRATED COULD COST A FORTUNE.

OVERNIGHT, SOMETHING FELL ON MY VEHICLE AND CRACKED THE WINDSHIELD. THE CRACK TRAVELS A GOOD THIRD OF THE WIDTH OF THE VEHICLE. WE THINK IT IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AS THE SUBARU WAS STREET-PARKED UNDERNEATH A POWER LINE, AND WE DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING SUBSTANTIAL AROUND THE CAR THAT COULD HAVE CRACKED IT.

AFTER STARTING THE CAR AND BEGINNING TO REVERSE AWAY FROM MY HOME, THE REAR VIEW CAMERA FROZE FOR 10 SECONDS, NOT SHOWING ANY CHANGE IN MOVING OR STATIONARY OBJECTS. THIS HAPPENED DUE TO THE DRIVER SCREEN INTERFACE/ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM CRASHING AND REBOOTING. THE CRASH/REBOOT USUALLY HAPPENS IF THE CAR PAIRS BY BLUETOOTH WITH A PHONE THAT IS IN THE HOUSE, AND THEN GETS OUT OF RANGE WHEN THE CAR BACKS AWAY OR DRIVES AWAY FROM THE HOUSE. IF IT CRASHES WHILE REVERSING, THE SCREEN EITHER GOES BLANK OR FREEZES THE REAR VIEW IMAGE IN PLACE. IF THE SYSTEM CRASHES WHILE DRIVING FORWARD THEN THE REVERSE CAMERA IMAGE IS NOT AFFECTED. WHEN THE CAMERA FREEZES WHILE REVERSING, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS SINCE IT GIVES THE DRIVER THE FALSE VIEW THAT NOTHING IS BEHIND THE CAR WHEN THERE COULD BE A CHILD OR OBJECT.

MY WIFES CAR STARTED SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. WE TOOK IT TO A SUBARU DEALER AND A RODENT HAD CHEWED THE HIGH PRESSURE GAS LINE. IT THEN SPRAYED GASOLINE RIGHT INTO HER BACK SEAT FOAM AND CUSHION. IF WE TAKE THE RODENT OUT OF THE EQUATION, THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE AND WE WANT OUR MONEY BACK IN FULL. THE MATERIAL FOR WIRING AND FUEL LINES ARE MADE FROM A SOY BASED PRODUCT ATTRACTING RODENTS. THE SEAL THEY USE FOR THE GAS TANK ACCESS UNDER THE REAR SEAT IS A CHEAP FOAM NOT A NEOPRENE RUBBER OR O-RING. IF THE GAS WOULD OF LEAKED ONTO JUST THE GROUND I WOULDN'T EVEN BE TYPING THIS LETTER. I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT HIGH PRESSURE GAS GETTING INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. I WANT TO CONTACT A LAWYER ABOUT THIS AND MAKE SUBARU ACCOUNTABLE. THE DEALER EVEN TOLD ME IT WAS THE SECOND ONE IN 2 WEEKS. THEY MUST USE A SOY BASED FUEL LINE TO ATTRACT TO RODENT, AND THEN THE FOAM SEAL IN NO WAY IS SAFE TO PREVENT A PRESSURE OF GASOLINE FROM REACHING INSIDE THE VEHICLE. MY WIFES CAR IS 13 MO OLD AND ONLY HAS 7400 MILES ON IT. SHE IS DEVASTATED AS THIS WAS HER FIRST BRAND NEW CAR EVER. NO WE HAVE A CAR WITH GAS SMELL INSIDE FOREVER. PLEASE HELP US!

OCCASIONALLY, WHILE ACCELERATING, IT FEELS AS IF THE CAR LOSES ACCELERATION AND THE ENGINE LOSES POWER. IT HAPPENS WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION SLOW SPEEDS AND FAST SPEEDS.

ONE DAY IN AUGUST, I WENT TO MY CAR PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND NOTICED A CRACK COMING UP FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE HAD NOTHING HIT THE WINDSHIELD IN SEVERAL MONTHS AND NEVER IN THAT AREA. ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS AFTER THAT, AS I TOOK THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE, I NOTICED IT LENGTHENING HORIZONTAL BY ABOUT 3 INCHES EACH TIME.

AFTER BEING PARKED OUTSIDE IN MY DRIVE WAY IN TAHOE CITY DURING A SNOWY NIGHT, MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES. I NOTICED THE DAMAGE IN THE MORNING AFTER REMOVING THE SNOW AND TURNING ON MY VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN READING ONLINE THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT SUBARU HAS NOT BEEN RECALLING WINDSHIELDS. I CONFIRMED WITH MY SUBARU SERVICE CENTER THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOT UNDER WARANTY.

BEEN DRIVING SUBARUS FOR MANY YEARS AND HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THEM...UNTIL NOW. GOT JUST OVER 11,300 MILES ON THE CAR SINCE I HARDLY DRIVE IT ANYMORE DUE TO THE PANDEMIC. WHILE DRIVING MY FIRST TIME OUT IN WEEKS, A SMALL PEBBLE HIT WINDSHIELD ON LEFT SIDE AND THE GLASS IMMEDIATELY CRACKED ABOUT 6" IN LENGTH. BY THE TIME I GOT HOME IT HAD TRAVELED TO ABOUT 9". THIS WAS A VERY SMALL PEBBLE THAT BARELY MADE A SOUND AND THAT SHOULD HAVE BOUNCED OFF WITH NO DAMAGE OR AT THE VERY MOST, MAYBE LEFT A CHIP BUT THE CRACKED WINDSHIELD SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. THE WINDSHIELDS ARE SUPPOSEDLY COATED WITH A SPECIAL SOMETHING THAT DEFLECTS SMALL ROCKS........YEA, I DON'T THINK SO! I SEE THAT THERE IS A CLASS ACTION SUIT AGAINST SUBARU FOR THIS VERY THING. NO ONE WILL FIX IT TO STOP THE TRAVELING CRACK, THEY ALL SAY IT MUST BE REPLACED DUE TO THE SAFETY FEATURES OF THE VEHICLE/GLASS. WELL THE WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENT IS SUPER EXPENSIVE BECAUSE OF THE "EYESIGHT" FEATURE AND THE CAMERAS. THESE CARS ARE NOT CHEAP AND I WOULD EXPECT HIGHER QUALITY FROM SUBARU. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE BRAND NOW.

I AM DRIVING DOWN HWY17 DOWNHILL WHEN TRAFFIC SLOWED AND AS I SLOWED THE ENGINE AND CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN , NO POWER , VERY LITTLE STEERING CONTROL.I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF WITHOUT INCIDENT. I DO FEAR THE REOCCURRENCE OF THIS PROBLEM AND I DO FEEL THIS IS DANGEROUS AND HOPE THE COMPLAINT IS CONSIDERED AND ADDRESED

ALL ELEXTRICAL WAS DIABELED, NO S DRIVE, NO RESPONSE TO KEY FOB, COULD NOT TAKE CAR OUT OF PARK, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. CAR WAS WORKIG WHEN PARKED AT STORE, CAME OUT AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START AND KEPT GIVING ME ERROR MESAGES. THE YBRID BATTER WAS GOOD AND I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO USE THE HYBRID MODE TO GET THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP.
