Air bags, sensor, occupant classificationOct 3, 2019
Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Forester vehicles equipped with heated seats. An electrical connection in the front passenger seat for the Occupant Detection System (ODS) may loosen.
If the connection loosens, the front passenger airbag may deactivate even though the seat is occupied, increasing the risk of injury to the front passenger in the event of a crash.
Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, replace the ODS sensor mat harness, free of charge. The recall began February 11, 2020. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-844-373-6614. Subaru's number for this recall is WUM-98.

Exterior lighting, brake lights, switchFeb 28, 2019
Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain 2014-2016 Forester, 2008-2016 Impreza sedans, 2012-2016 Impreza station wagons, 2008-2014 WRX sedans (including STI), and 2013-2017 Crosstrek vehicles. Exposure to certain contaminants may cause the brake light switch to malfunction, preventing the brake lights from illuminating and also preventing keyless ignition vehicles from starting and CVT/automatic transmissions from being able to be shifted out of Park.
Brake lights that do not illuminate properly will not alert other drivers that the vehicle is slowing or stopping, increasing the risk of crash.
Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake light switch, free of charge. The recall began April 15, 2019. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-844-373-6614. Subaru's number for this recall is WUE-90.

THE REAR DRIVER SIDE SUSPENSION FAILED.
Power train, Other or unspecified, Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 15, 2020
TWO TIMES, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH, MY CAR LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. IT WAS AS THOUGH THE CAR SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL. I PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE RPM'S WOULD INCREASE, BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. IT SIMPLY SLOWED DOWN. BOTH TIMES THE HIGHWAY WAS EMPTY ENOUGH THAT I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT INTO THE SHOULDER. ONCE I PULLED OVER, I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES. WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON, THE CAR STARTED AND ACCELERATION WORKED AS NORMAL. BOTH TIMES I BROUGHT IT TO A LOCAL SUBARU DEALERSHIP, AND AFTER RUNNING SOME TESTS SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY ISSUES, AND COULDN'T HELP ME ANY FURTHER. I'VE FOUND OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED VERY SIMILAR PROBLEMS, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE NO ONE HAS FOUND A SOLUTION.

NOVEMBER OF 2019 LEFT REAR COIL SPRING WAS REPLACED NOT SURE WHEN THIS ONE HAPPENED. JANUARY 11, 2020 BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY STARTED GOING FORWARD AND THE RIGHT COIL SPRING BROKE. ONLY 29000 MILES ON CAR

LESS THAN TWO DAYS AFTER HAVING ROUTINE SERVICE MAINTENANCE DONE AT A SUBARU DEALERSHIP, I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 SUBARU FORESTER WITH JUST OVER 46,000 MILES ON IT ON A CITY STREET WHEN I HEARD A THUMP AND NOTICED SOMETHING DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING ON FLAT PAVEMENT AND DID NOT HIT ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION I COULD SEE THE LEFT REAR OF THE CAR WAS ALMOST RESTING ON THE TIRE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE SUBARU DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY DETERMINED THE LEFT REAR COIL SPRING HAD BROKEN. SUBARU OF AMERICA DID PAY A PORTION TO REPLACE THE BROKEN SPRING AND THE ONE ON THE OTHER SIDE. IT SEEMS ODD THAT A COIL SPRING ON A VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 50,000 MILES ON IT WOULD SO SUDDENLY FAIL AND IT WOULD SEEM THIS WOULD BE A VERY DANGEROUS THING TO HAVE HAPPEN IF YOU WERE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT HIGHER SPEEDS.

SUBARU 2015 FORESTER 2.5L AT CVT TRANSMISSION NO TURBO ENGINE REVS TO 4-6000 RPM TRANSMISSION SLAMS INTO GEAR CAR TAKES OFF ACCELERATING WITHOUT DRIVER INPUT. THE DRIVER MUST SLAM ON BRAKES PLACE THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO REGAIN CONTROL. THE CAR DOES THIS INTERMITTENTLY BOTH AT LOW AND HIGH-SPEED TRAVEL.. THIS CAR HAS BEEN AT DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR DIAGNOSIS WITHOUT SUCCESS. THIS IS DANGEROUS IN THAT THE DRIVER IS AT RISK OF LOSS OF CONTROL DUE TO HIGH ENGINE RPM AND SUDDEN ACCELERATION WITH SLAMMING TRANSMISSION ENGAGEMENT REQUIRING HARD BRAKEING AND PLACING THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO REGAIN CONTROL . I BELIEVE THIS IS LONG STANDING PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND THE ORIGIANAL BUYER TRADED IN THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRICLAL ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM THAT WILL ONLY BE DIAGNOSISED DOCUMENTED BY 24/7 MONITORING OF ENGINE FUNCTIONS. IN ORDER TO CATCH THE EVENTS AS THEY OCCUR NO CODES ARE BEING THROWN OR RECORDED. THE DEALERS HAVE REFUSED TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE TO DIAGNOSIS THIS INTERMITTANT PROBLEM.
Exterior lighting, Jan 10, 2020
DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WAS OUT. REMOVED LIGHTING ASSEMBLY AND FOUND BLACKENED BULB AND WHAT APPEARED TO BE BURN MARKS ON THE LAMP HOLDER. INSPECTED OTHER BULB HOLDERS IN THE SAME ASSEMBLY AND FOUND NO OTHER BLACKENED BULBS OR BURNED HOLDERS. INSPECTED THE PASSENGER SIDE ASSEMBLY AND FOUND SIMILAR CONDITIONS (BLACKENED BULB, BURNED HOLDERS), BUT LAMP WAS STILL FUNCTIONAL. CLEANED BOTH CONNECTORS AND REPLACED BOTH BULBS WITH PHILIPS 7443LL.

LOSS OF POWER. IT FEELS LIKE THERE IS SIMPLY NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. IT HAS HAPPENED AFTER TURNING INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT AT LOW SPEED (< 40 MPH) AND MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEED (> 60 MPH). PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL JUST RESULTS IN CONTINUED VEHICLE DECELERATION. THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING BUT NO RESPONSE TO THROTTLE. AFTER SEVERAL CYCLES OF BACKING OFF THROTTLE AND PRESSING, THE ENGINE WILL JUST SUDDENLY START RESPONDING. SOMETIMES THE HILL ASSIST AND ABS LIGHTS ON THE DASH WILL ILLUMINATE, SOMETIMES NOT. THERE IS NEVER BEEN A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WHEN IT HAPPENS. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. SCARY, ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY.
Air bags, Jan 7, 2020
2015 SUBARU FORESTER. THE PASSENGER SEAT FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING. THE DASHBOARD DISPLAYS 'PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF' WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. THIS APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO A MALFUNCTION OF THE SEAT PRESSURE SENSOR. WHEN NO PERSON IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT SEAT, THE AIRBAG LIGHT SAYS IT IS ON. ON THE DASHBOARD A RED WARNING LIGHT INDICATING AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG IS CONSTANTLY LIT. SO, IN SUMMARY: WHEN I START THE CAR, THIS INDICATOR TURNS ON: SRS AIRBAG SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE CHECKED PASSENGER AIRBAG REMAINS "OFF" EVEN PERSON SITS ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAPPENS WHEN CAR IS STOPPED OR MOVING WHILE THE CAR IS STARTED.

AT ABOUT 78,000 MILES THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR COIL SPRING BROKE. THIS REQUIRES A REPLACEMENT OF BOTH THE COIL SPRING AND STRUT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CAR. ADDITIONALLY IT WAS RECOMMENDED TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AS IT MAY FAIL TOO. THIS FAILURE MAY POSE A SAFETY ISSUE IF THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. FORTUNATELY, THIS ISSUE WAS IDENTIFIED IN A PARKING LOT
Engine, Jan 5, 2020
THE CAM CARRIERS ON THE ENGINE BEGAN LEAKING OIL, DRIPPING ONTO OTHER COMPONENTS. INCLUDED A SENSOR AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. DUE TO THE SENSOR BEING DRENCHED IN OIL, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HAVE ISSUES WHILE IN MOTION ON ROADS WITH BUCKING AND POWER BECAUSE THE SYSTEM THOUGHT IT WAS RUNNING LEAN. RESEARCHING THE INTERNET SHOWS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE BOXER ENGINE STYLE CHOSEN FOR FORESTERS AND CAN OCCUR ANY TIME WITHIN 100,000 MILES. IF I HAD KNOWN THIS WAS A COMMON ISSUE, A MECHANIC COULD HAVE REPAIRED IT PRIOR TO FURTHER DAMAGE BUT NO RECALL INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE. REMOVING THE ENGINE TO FIX THE CAM CARRIERS IS AN EXTENSIVE, LABOR-INTENSIVE REPAIR FOR SOMETHING SUBARU KNOWS ABOUT. NOT AN EXPERT BUT IF A CATALYTIC CONVERTER OR SENSOR FAILS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION, PROBABLY NOT A GOOD SITUATION FOR THE DRIVER OR OTHER VEHICLES.

IN SEPTEMBER 2017, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY SUBARU FORESTER LOST POWER COMPLETELY AND WITHOUT WARNING. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER AND HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED. IT RESTARTED AFTER ONLY APPROXIMATELY 2 HOURS. LUCKILY THIS OCCURRED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WITH LITTLE TRAFFIC, OR I LIKELY WOULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A CATASTROPHIC ACCIDENT. I CONTACTED SUBARU AND LEARNED I WAS ELIGIBLE FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY DUE TO POSSIBLE CVT ISSUES, BUT SUBARU REFUSED TO ASSIST ME WHEN I EXPLAINED THAT I WAS OVERSEAS WITH THE VEHICLE ON OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT ASSIGNMENT AND THAT THE LOCAL AUTHORIZED SUBARU SHOP NEEDED AUTHORIZATION FROM SUBARU TO COMPLETE WORK ON MY U.S.-SPEC VEHICLE. I NOTED MY ALARM THAT SEVERAL OTHERS HAD REPORTED SIMILAR INCIDENTS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN MY, MY CHILDREN'S OR OTHERS DEATHS, BUT SUBARU STILL DID NOT ASSIST IN FINDING A SOLUTION. I BELIEVE THE SERIOUSNESS OF THIS FAULT, AS WELL AS THE FACT THAT OTHER SUBARU OWNERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM UP UNTIL THIS DAY (LATE 2019) SHOULD CALL FOR AN ACTUAL RECALL OF THE VEHICLE, NOT ONLY AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I AM A THREE-TIME SUBARU OWNER AND AM SHOCKED BY THE LACK OF CUSTOMER LOYALTY REGARDING THIS SERIOUS VEHICLE ISSUE. I CONTINUE TO BE ON U.S. GOVERNMENT ASSIGNMENT OVERSEAS SO AM UNABLE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A U.S. SUBARU SERVICE CENTER. IRRESPECTIVE OF THAT SITUATION, THE FACT THAT I AND THE OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE REPORTED THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE SHOULD RESULT IN VEHICLE RECALL BEFORE LIVES ARE LOST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 SUBARU FORESTER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STARTED TO CONSUME AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TOM WOOD SUBARU (3300 E 96TH ST, INDIANAPOLIS , IN 46240) FOUR TIMES AND THEY ADVISED THE CONTACT TO MONITOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION. AFTER THE LATEST FAILURE, THE DEALER DETERMINED THAT A NEW ENGINE WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000.

FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS I HAVE BEEN HAVING MAJOR ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE SHAKES AS IF IT IS GOING TO STALL. WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY OR THE STREET THE RPMS AND POWER WILL SUDDENLY DROP AND WHEN I PUSH ON THE ACCELERATOR THE RPM REVS UP TO A 5 OR 6 BUT WITH LITTLE POWER AND THE ENGINE SHAKES FOR THE VEHICLE TO EVEN START MOVING FORWARD. THERE APPEARS TO BE SLIPPAGE AS WELL. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD NOT ONLY FOR THE DRIVER, BUT PASSENGERS AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE FEELS AS IF IT WILL COMPLETELY STOP ON THE ROAD. I HAVE CONTACTED SUBARU OF AMERICA AND THEY TOLD ME THAT SINCE I'M OVER MY WARRANTY BY 24K MILES THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING. SO SUBARU WILL ONLY WARRANTY THEIR CARS FOR A MAX OF 100K? THIS IS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND POOR SERVICE, NOT TO MENTION PUTTING DRIVERS LIVES IN HAZARD.

AT 38K EXCESSIVE VIBRATION AND NOISE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WAS NOTICED. DEALER REPLACED BOTH OF THE FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS. AT 42K THE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL BEARING WENT BAD AND WAS REPLACED. PROBABLY CAUSED BY THE BAD CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS. AT 44K THE CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS WERE BAD AGAIN. THIS CAUSED A SEVERE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE CAR IN SLICK CONDITIONS. THIS TIME THE DEALER REPLACED BOTH OF THE CONTROL ARM ASSEMBLIES. THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. TIME FOR A RECALL.

I AM AN OWNER OF OF A 2015 SUBARU FORESTER XT AND I BELIEVE THAT I HAVE A DEFECTIVE WINDSHIELD. I NOTICED THAT THERE IS A CRACK ON MY WINDSHIELD THAT IS ABOUT THE SIZE OF A QUARTER AFTER EXPERIENCING A SMALL ROCK HITTING MY WINDSHIELD ON THE HIGHWAY.I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I AM ABLE TO REPLACE MY WINDSHIELD BY SUBARU BECAUSE I BELIEVE THE QUALITY OF THE WINDSHIELD IS FAULTY AND A SAFETY HAZARD. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.*DT CONSUMER STATED INCIDENT HAPPENED AGAIN ON DEC.30TH,2019 WHILE DRIVING TO WORK AND A ROCK HIT WHICH CAUSED A INDENT ON THE WINDSHIELD BY A HAIRLINE CRACK.*JB
Engine, Dec 23, 2019
VEHICLE CONSUMES OIL AT IRREGULAR PACE. 1 QUART NEEDS TO BE ADDED EVERY 1,500-2,000 MILES. THIS MEANS USING 3 ADDITIONAL QUARTS OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT AND FOR CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE.
Power train, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Dec 23, 2019
WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 70MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. THE ENGINE REVVED BUT NO RESPONSE, LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. THE ENGINE DID NOT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF, AND I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER. WHILE COASTING ON THE SHOULDER, THE CAR SPUTTERED AS IF IT WAS OUT OF GAS, BUT I HAD 1/4 TANK. IT THEN BEGAN TO RUN NORMALLY. I PULLED OFF TO A GAS STATION, FILLED IT UP, AND CONTINUED MY TRIP WITHOUT A PROBLEM. THE OCCURRENCE WAS VERY DANGEROUS ON A CONGESTED HIGHWAY.
Suspension, Dec 21, 2019
REAR STRUT SPRING FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. I HAVE RETAINED THE FAILED SPRING AND ITS COUNTERPART. LOOKS LIKE A METAL FRACTURE. VEHICLE WAS NOT SUBJECT TO ANY ACUTE TRAUMA (E.G. POTHOLE), HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, AND HAS NEVER BEEN USED FOR TOWING, HAULING, OR OFF-ROADING. VEHICLE HAS 62K MILES.

MECHANIC NOTICED A SMALL PIECE OF THE LEFT REAR SUSPENSION SPRING HAD RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKEN OFF WHILE THE CAR WAS UP ON A LIFT. UNCLEAR EXACTLY WHEN THE SPRING HAD BROKEN.

IN MAY OF 2018, WITH 59000 MILES ON MY SUBARU, THE RIGHT REAR COIL SPRING BROKE. IT WAS REPLACED, FREE OF CHARGE, BY SUBARU. AT THE TIME, I STATED THAT IT MUST BE A DEFECT AND THE LEFT SPRING SHOULD BE CHANGED BUT IT WAS STATED THAT IT WAS INSPECTED AND WAS FINE. THIS WEEK, DECEMBER 2019 WITH 79,000 MILES, THE CAR WAS NOT HANDLING WELL. WHEN I TOOK IT IN TO SERVICE (A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP), I WAS TOLD THE LEFT SPRING WAS CRACKED. AGAIN, THEY FIXED IT FOR FREE BUT I WAS TOLD THAT A SEARCH OF THE SUBARU'S SYSTEM DID NOT TURN UP ANY ISSUES REPORTED WITH THE SPRINGS. THIS HAD TO BE A LIE BECAUSE A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH THAT I JUST DID SHOWS NUMEROUS PROBLEMS OF CRACKED AND BROKEN SPRINGS INT HE 2014 AND 2015 FORESTERS. IT'S TIME TO ISSUE A RECALL.

MY CAR LOSSES POWER WHILE I AM DRIVING. I MERGED INTO TRAFFIC ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY, AND WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS ACROSS THE NORTH & SOUTH LANES, I LOST POWER. LUCKILY ALL TRAFFIC SLOWED OR STOPPED UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO MOVE MY CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW, I HAVE HAD IT TO MY DEALER TWICE AND WAS GIVEN ANSWERS LIKE BRAKE PROBLEMS. RETURNING TO THE DEALERSHIP 12/19/2019 FOR THE THIRD TIME, BEFORE I AM KILLED, OR CAUSE A MULTI-CAR ACCIDENT AND OTHER PEOPLE TO BE INJURED. I HAVE ALSO REPORTED THIS TO CONSUMER REPORTS AND SUBARU'S MAIN LOCATION. PLEASE NOTIFY ME OF ANYTHING ELSE I CAN SEEK OUT AS TO NOT BE KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED IN THIS CAR. THANKS.

I WAS DRIVING ON CITY STREETS (SPEED LIMIT 45MPH) TO RUN SIMPLE ERRANDS WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY TURNED AROUND TO GO HOME WHICH WAS JUST A MINUTE OR TWO AWAY. AS I SAT AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, I REALIZED THE ENGINE WAS IDLING A BIT ROUGH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. I PARKED THE CAR IN THE GARAGE AND SPOKE WITH SUBARU AS WELL AS OUR MECHANIC AT NEW DIMENSIONS AUTOMOTIVE. APPARENTLY, SUBARU HAD ISSUED A MECHANICS NOTICE TO BE AWARE THAT ALTERNATOR PROBLEMS EXISTED. WE ULTIMATELY HAD THE REPAIR COMPLETED AT NEW DIMENSIONS ON 8/6/19 IN THE AMOUNT OF $877.53. OUR MECHANIC SUGGESTED THAT THIS MECHANICAL ISSUE MAY WELL BECOME A RECALL, AND TO KEEP OUR RECEIPT FOR JUST THAT REASON.
