DURING THE MORNING AND SOMETIMES IN THE AFTERNOON AS I START THE VEHICLE THE STEERING LIGHT COMES ON AND THE VEHICLE IS NOT ABLE TO BE STEERED. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND I BROUGHT IT TO THE SUBARU DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER MANUFACTURES WARRANTY. LAST WEEK THE DEALERSHIP CALLED AND STATED IT WAS REPAIRED, I HAVE ALL THE RECORDS. AS MY PREGNANT WIFE AND I GOT INTO THE VEHICLE I STARTED THE CAR TO LEAVE AND THE STEERING LIGHT WAS ON AGAIN, AND I COULD NOT STEER THE VEHICLE. I AM NOW VERY AFRAID THIS WILL HAPPEN WHILE I AM DRIVING. I HAVE NOT CONFIDENCE IN THE CAR AND THE DEALERSHIPS ABILITY TO FIX THE ISSUE AND THE VEHICLE SITS AT THE SUBARU DEALERSHIP IN ROSEVILLE CA CURRENTLY. ON ALL OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, BUT THERE ARE INCIDENTS WHERE OTHER SUBARU DRIVES HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE MANY RECORDS THAT CAN BE REVIEWED.

EVER SINCE THE FIRST BATTERY DIED AFTER A COLD WINTER, THE CAR HAS BEEN DRAINING THE BATTERY ON IT'S OWN MANNER. CURRENTLY, ONCE AWHILE, I WILL NOTICE IT DRAINS MUCH MORE OVERNIGHT THAN NORMAL, AND IF LEFT UNUSED 3-5 DAYS, THE CAR BATTERY WILL BE COMPLETELY DRAINED. COMMUNICATED WITH THE DEALER AND SUBARU, BUT CONSIDER THE CAR HAS NO ISSUE AND DETERMINED THAT IT WAS MY FAULT THAT I MUST BE NOT DRIVING ENOUGH. THE FIRST BATTERY LASTED FROM 9/2015 TO 2/2017, BEEN DRIVING UNDER SAME METHOD, BEHAVIOR, AND CONDITION BEFORE THE DEATH OF FIRST BATTERY AND AFTER. HOWEVER, EVEN SINCE THE CHANGE OF THE BATTERY, THE ISSUE EXIST AND NEVER FIXED BY DEALER. A GOOD NOTE IS THAT A TOWING COMPANY PERSON HAD A SAME CAR WITH SAME ISSUE, IT WAS FIXED BY REPLACING THE BATTERY CONTROL BOARD OR SUCH. HOWEVER, SUBARU AND DEALER DIDN'T THINK THAT MAY BE THE POSSIBLE CAUSE. IN THIS MANNER OF THE CAR, I CAN NOT TRUST THE CAR TO KEEP DRIVING SAFELY, OR MAYBE IT WILL NOT TURN BACK ON AFTER A TRIP INTO MOUNTAIN ROAD AND STOPPED FOR A BREAK TIME. BATTERY IS THE KEY PART TO KEEP THE ENGINE FIRING AND RUNNING. IF IT DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING, THIS ISSUE MAY CAUSE DEATH. THE CAR HAD DIED IN VARIES LOCATION. SUCH AS HOME DRIVEWAY, HOME GARAGE, AIRPORT PARKING LOT, AND PUBLIC LOCATIONS. YESTERDAY, THE CAR JUST DIED AGAIN INSIDE THE HOUSE GARAGE. IF NEEDED, I CAN BE REACH ANY TIME WITH MY PHONE. I JUST WANT MY CAR ISSUE BEING TAKEN CARE OF, AND SUBARU TO SEE THE ISSUE BEFORE ANYONE GET KILLED.

ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY: I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF WHEN MY LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, WHICH MEANT I STILL HAD 70 MILES LEFT UNTIL EMPTY. ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE MIDDLE LANE, MY ENGINE MADE A REVVING NOISE AND MY CAR LOST POWER (PRESSED GAS PEDAL, BUT NOTHING HAPPENED). PRIOR TO THAT, THE CAR DROVE NORMALLY. THANKFULLY, I WAS ABLE TO EXIT OFF OF THE HIGHWAY, AT A SNAIL'S PACE, AND PULL INTO A PARKING LOT AND AS SOON AS I DID, THE CAR DIED AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON. RADIO STILL WORKED. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON BEFORE THE CAR LOST POWER, EXCEPT FOR THE LOW FUEL LIGHT. I TRIED TO RE-START THE CAR, BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT TURN OVER. I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK AND BY THE TIME THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED THE CAR STARTED NORMALLY. I DID NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR AND HAD IT TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE CODE FOR CAR RUNNING TOO LEAN HAD COME ON. AFTER PUTTING THE CAR THROUGH A SERIES OF TESTS, THEY DETERMINED THAT IT MUST HAVE BEEN BAD GAS PUT INTO THE TANK. AFTER SEEING NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOR THE 2015 FORESTERS AND CROSSTREKS WITH IDENTICAL SITUATIONS, I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT GAS WAS THE CULPRIT. . I HAVE OWNED VARIOUS CARS OVER THE YEARS AND THE ONLY THING THAT BAD GAS CAUSED WAS SPUTTERING. I BOUGHT A NEW CAR SO THAT I HAVE PEACE OF MIND WHILE DRIVING 80 MILES ON A BUSY HIGHWAY EVERY DAY. I NO LONGER HAVE THAT PEACE OF MIND AND INSTEAD WONDER IF MY TWO YEAR OLD CAR WILL LOSE POWER AGAIN, BUT UNDER DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES. WILL IT HAPPEN AT NIGHT WITH NOWHERE TO PULL OVER WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER BEARING DOWN ON ME? SINCE THE INCIDENT, CAR NOW HAS ACCELERATION PROBLEMS AT LOW SPEEDS; FEELING LIKE IT WILL STALL WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL, BUT IT DOES NOT ACTUALLY STALL. CAR HAS BEEN AT DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY CANNOT REPEAT THE PROBLEM.

NHTSA ODI 11051438

I HAVE RANDOM BUT CONSISTENT PROBLEMS WITH MY 2015 SUBARU CROSSTREK IN REGARDS TO THE CVT, STALLING AND ACCELERATION ISSUES. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP ON MANY OCCASIONS. WHEN COMING TO A STOP AND THEN ACCELERATING AGAIN IT FEELS AS IF THE CAR IS ABOUT TO STALL AND IN SOME SITUATIONS I FELT IT DID FOR A SECOND. ITS A VERY FRIGHTENING SITUATION WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC OR DRIVING DEFENSIVELY AND THE CAR JUST DOESN'T RESPOND. I HAVE COME VERY CLOSE TO BEING HIT BECAUSE THE CAR DID NOT RESPOND. ANOTHER WAY TO EXPLAIN IT IS THIS: WHEN STARTING FROM A COMPLETE STOP, ITS LIKE THE CAR SHIFTS FROM 1ST TO 4TH IN A SPLIT SECOND AND THE CAR FAILS TO ACCELERATE AND IT TAKES ABOUT 5 SECONDS FOR THE CAR TO RESPOND AND SLOWLY PICK UP SPEED LIKE IT WAS ACCELERATING STARTING IN THE WRONG GEAR (4TH). I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS FOR OVER 2 YEARS NOW AND I'D LIKE TO GET THIS FIXED ASAP. PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL FOR THESE CVTS AND HAVE THE MANUFACTURER FIX THEM. JUST EXTENDING THE WARRANTY TO 100K DOES NO GOOD BECAUSE I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP LAST WEEK AND TIMES BEFORE AND THEY DIDN'T FIX ANYTHING, THEY JUST COLLECTED DATA AND SENT IT TO SUBARU BUT I STILL HAVE THE ISSUE. I ALSO NOTICED THE PROBLEM MORE PROMINENT WHEN THE WEATHER IS WARMER WHICH LEADS ME TO ALSO SUSPECT AN AIR/FUEL ISSUE OR SOMETHING ELSE ADDING TO THE PROBLEM.

AT 37,801 MILES, THE BRAKE SWITCH COMPONENT FAILED ON MY 2015 SUBARU XV CROSSTREK. THE HILL ASSIST, ABS, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS ALL CAME ON. WHEN I PARKED THE VEHICLE AND SHUT IT OFF, IT REFUSED TO COME OUT OF PARK, LEAVING THE VEHICLE STRANDED. THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS PART, HOWEVER, THERE IS NO RECALL AT THIS TIME.

NHTSA ODI 11025480

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 SUBARU XV CROSSTREK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CRUISE CONTROL FAILED TO REMAIN AT THE DESIRED SPEED AND INCREASED SPEED SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (TUCSON SUBARU, 4901 N ORACLE RD, TUCSON, AZ 85704, (520) 422-2111) WHO REPLACED THE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000.

THE BRAKE SWITCH FAILED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BE STUCK IN PARK. SUBARU HAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKE SWITCH, BUT MY CAR IS NOT COVERED UNDER THAT RECALL. RECALL 15V366000. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH SUBARU AND THE DEFECT SHOULD BE COVERED.

EVERY FEW MONTHS THE ENGINE DROPS TO AN IDLE STATE FOR AT LEASE ONE SECOND JUST AFTER ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS PRESSED. SO WHEN EXPECTING POWER FOR URGENT ACCELERATION, THERE IS INITIAL MOMENTARY POWER, PROPELLING THE CAR ONTO A BUSY ROAD, FOR EXAMPLE, THEN ENGINE RPM DROPS TO IDLE AND CAR STOPS ACCELERATING FOR A SECOND OR MORE BEFORE POWER STARTS TO RETURN. THIS USUALLY WILL OCCUR SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF A FEW DAYS AND THEN CLEARS UP BY ITSELF FOR ANOTHER FEW MONTHS BEFORE THE HAZARD REOCCURS. RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY SAY IF THE MECHANIC CAN'T REPEAT THE PROBLEM, THERE IS NOTHING SUBARU CAN DO. THE CAR HAS EXHIBITED THIS PROBLEM SINCE NEW. AT ONE POINT I FOUND THAT IT SEEMED THAT CELL PHONE EMI COUPLING INTO THE CAR'S WIRING HARNESS HAD MADE THE PROBLEM WORSE. IN THAT CASE THE ENGINE WOULD DROP TO AN IDLE FOR UP TO THREE SECONDS AND WOULD OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY. TO DATE NO COMPONENTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY SUBARU. AT THIS POINT I WOULD LIKE SUBARU TO BUY BACK THE CAR BECAUSE OF THIS CYCLICAL SAFETY HAZARD, WHERE THE ENGINE UNEXPECTEDLY YET INFREQUENTLY DROPS TO AN IDLE STATE. I'VE GOT ABOUT 21 PAGES OF EMAIL CORRESPONDENCE WITH SUBARU REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND AND THEY HAVE YET TO OFFER ANY PLAN OF ACTION.

AFTER REMOVING CAR FROM GARAGE, WHILE SLOWLY DRIVING UPHILL IN ALLEY (LESS THAN 15 MPH ), CAR ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN WHILE MY RIGHT FOOT WAS IN THE AIR ON THE WAY TO BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN FOR A TURN. THE CAR MOVED & SOUNDED AS IF ACCELERATOR HAD BEEN DEPRESSED, BUT IT WASN'T BY THE DRIVER! I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR WITH THE BRAKE, BUT UNINTENDED ACCELERATION CAUSED CAR TO OVERSHOOT WHERE I WANTED IT TO GO BY SEVERAL FEET. IT DIDN'T COLLIDE WITH ANYTHING. I HEARD A "THUNK" BELOW CAR A COUPLE OF SECONDS BEFORE THE ACCELERATION. I BROUGHT CAR TO DEALER AT EARLIEST APPOINTMENT - OCT. 11. THEY SUGGESTED IT WAS THE CONTINUOUS VARIABLE TRANSMISSION. I KNEW CAR WELL ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT I EXPERIENCED WAS NOT HOW CVT OPERATES & INSISTED ON SPEAKING TO SUPERVISORS. THEY HELPED ME OPEN AN INVESTIGATION BY SUBARU. I GAVE SUBARU WRITTEN CONSENT TO ACCESS THE CAR'S BLACK BOX. THEIR INSPECTOR (FROM BOSCH AUTOMOTIVE SERVICES) DOWNLOADED BLACK BOX & CAR'S OTHER COMPUTERS, PERFORMED A PHYSICAL INSPECTION & TEST DROVE. HE SAID IT WAS UNLIKELY TO BE CAUSED BY CVT OR THE CRUISE CONTROL, & FOUND NO DAMAGE UNDER CAR. ON 11/10/16, I GOT E-MAIL FROM SUBARU THAT NO DEFECTS WERE FOUND, NO DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES WERE STORED, & "THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED." I CALLED THE SIGNER, WHO STATED THE "IMPACT OF THE ACCELERATION WAS NOT ENOUGH TO STORE." SHE REFUSED TO PROVIDE ME COPIES OF THE COMPUTER PRINTOUTS OR ANY OTHER DOCS FROM INVESTIGATION, CLAIMING THEY ARE PROPRIETARY TO SUBARU, EVEN THOUGH THE DATA, AS PART OF CAR, BELONGS TO ME! WHILE CAR WAS OUT OF SERVICE OVER 30 DAYS, LEMONLAW DIDN'T TAKE CASE AS NO DEFECT WAS FOUND. I UNDERSTAND INTERMITTENT ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL PROBLEMS DON'T LEAVE DTC CODES. DON'T KNOW IF I CAN TRUST THIS CAR, AS MALFUNCTION'S CAUSE WAS NEVER FOUND. NHTSA SHOULD ISSUE REGS ON ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL SAFETY AS OWNERS CAN'T SUE!

ON MONDAY 09/05/2016 IN GETTYSBURG, PA ON A FLAT SURFACE THE ABS WARNING LIGHT, HILL ASSISTANCE WARNING LIGHT, AND VEHICLE DYNAMICS CONTROL INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHED ON MY SCREEN. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE TO READ THE MANUAL REGARDING THE WARNINGS AS INDICATED ON THE MESSAGE I RECEIVED. WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE ALL THE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHTS DISAPPEARED. ON 09/07/2016 THE SAME WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES APPEARED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO WHERE WE PURCHASED IT USED AND THEY ADVISED THEY WILL CONTACT ME. I ALSO STOPPED AT THE LOCAL SUBARU DEALER AND INFORMED THEM OF MY CONCERNS. THEY ADVISED IT COULD BE THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH BUT UNSURE WITHOUT RUNNING THE DIAGNOSTICS TEST. THEY ALSO ADVISED ANOTHER CROSSTREK CAME IN WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND THE CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE OUT OF PARK. SO FAR I HAVEN'T HAD ANY FURTHER ISSUES BUT I AM CONCERNED MY BRAKES MAY FAIL CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.

JANUARY 1ST 2016 DRIVING BACK TO MIAMI FROM NORTH CAROLINA ON THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE AND NEAR KENDALL/MIAMI AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH THE GAS PEDAL STOPPED WORKING WHILE THE CAR WAS STILL ON, NO RED LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD, AND AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONSTRUCTION AREA AT NIGHT, IN THE POURING RAIN STOCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. FORTUNATELY A PASSING BY STATE FARM ROAD ASSISTANCE TRUCK SAW ME AND CAME TO MY AID PUSHING ME TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER HOUR AND MANY ATTEMPTS THE ENGINE STARTED AND I CONTINUED DRIVING WITHOUT A PROBLEM. AUGUST 7TH 2016 DRIVING BACK TO MIAMI FROM NORTH CAROLINA ON THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE JUST SOUTH OF JUPITER FLORIDA AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN; WHILE ON THE LEFT LANE THE GAS PEDAL STOPPED WORKING, ENGINE STILL ON, NO RED LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD AND SECONDS LATER ENGINE SHUT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO CRUISE TO THE RIGHT SIDE AND AFTER DOZENS OF ATTEMPTS AND AN HOUR AND 15 MINUTES THE ENGINE STARTED AND I CONTINUED DRIVING WITHOUT A PROBLEM. BOTH INCIDENTS HAVE HAPPENED AFTER THE VEHICLES HAS BEEN DRIVING 10 PLUS HOURS. I TRAVEL TO NORTH CAROLINA BY MYSELF OFTEN AND THIS PROBLEM IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE BEEN VERY LUCKY SO FAR THAT NO ONE HAS REAR ENDED ME YET BUT CAN'T GUARANTEE I WILL BE SO LUCKY NEXT TIME DRIVING AMONG 18 WHEELERS AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE FL TURNPIKE AND I-75. I TOOK THE 1ST INCIDENT AS A ONETIME THING BUT OBVIOUSLY IT IS NOT; THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT SUBARU OF PEMBROKE PINES FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS BUT SO FAR THEY HAVE NOT FOUND ANYTHING WRONG.

ENGINE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE RUNNING. FIRST TIME THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING AND STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WHEN IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR OTHER WARNING LIGHTS TO INDICATE A PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE THEN IMMEDIATELY RESTARTED WITH NO ISSUE. A WEEK LATER (AFTER NUMEROUS PROBLEM FREE TRIPS), THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AGAIN WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING 35 TO 40 MPH DOWN THE ROAD. WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE. AGAIN IT RESTARTED WITHOUT PROBLEM, BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT SPUTTER OR GIVE ANY OTHER INDICATION IT WAS ABOUT TO SHUT OFF. AGAIN, NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH INDICATING A PROBLEM. FOLLOWING BOTH TIMES THE ENGINE CUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING, THE NEXT TIME THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF AND THEN A RESTART WAS ATTEMPTED, THE KEYLESS IGNITION WOULD NOT WORK BUT AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, THE GREEN LIGHT WOULD APPEAR IN THE PUSH START BUTTON AND THE CAR WOULD START. CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER FOR OVER 20 DAYS. THEY HAVE INDICATED THE PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES TO A MECHANIC BUT THEY CANNOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE.

SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE I WAS DRIVING 60 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. I HEARD A LOUD BOOM, LIKE A GUN FIRING, AND THEN GLASS FLYING EVERYWHERE. GLASS WENT IN MY EYES, ON MY HEAD, DOWN MY JACKET, ALL OVER IN THE CAR, AND ALL OVER THE ROOF. THE SUNROOF WAS "BUBBLED" OUTWARDS. THIS IS A NEW VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 450 MILES.

I HEARD A LOUD POP AND LOOKED BACK AT MY TWO KIDS IN THE BACK THEN AT MY DAUGHTER. GLASS WAS EVERYWHERE. MY SUNROOF JUST IMPLODED. NO TRUCKS WERE PASSING TO THO UP STONES NO OTHER CARS WERE CLOSE ENOUGH TO CAUSE THIS DAMAGE. THERE IS A HUGE HOLE IN THE SUNROOF MIDDLE THE SURROUNDING AREAS ARE SHATTERED AND GLASS IS IN MY SEATS AND COUNCIL AS WELL AS THE CAR FLOOR. I THANK GOD NO ONE WAS HURT GOING THAT FAST ON THE HIGHWAY! I HAVE CONTACTED MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEY STATE THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS AND I THEN GOOGLE IT AND SEE THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW OTHERS WHERE CHANGE IN TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE CAUSE THE GLASS TO IMPLODE. I WILL BE CONTACTING SUBARU TO FILE A CLAIM.
