Thermal control valve became inoperable at less than 40,000 miles. Engine shut down and began to overheat. Part is known to easily fail by Subaru. Has been examined by dealership. All warning lights came on at once, and cruise control and Eyesight were disabled. NHTSA Recall Number 23V755000 We have been on the list for this recall repair since 12/28/2023, we were told when we scheduled the service appointment for the TCV that the dealership was not doing any more recall repairs any time soon as they could not get parts.

Windshield cracked when vehicle was traveling at a slow rate of speed, in the rain while on an on/off ramp. It has already been repaired. Crack went across the windshield right in my line of vision. The dealer examined the car and stated that at some point, the windshield was hit and that it just eventually cracked. There was no warning prior, I had not noticed any nicks prior to the crack.

While parked and without impact from any object, the windshield cracked causing visibility issues for the driver leading to unsafe driving conditions for those inside and outside the vehicle. The problem is a common issue among many Subaru vehicles. The issue has been reported but not yet inspected. There were no warnings before the issue appeared.

A crack developed in the windshield on the passenger's side spontaneously. We got in the car in the morning and noticed it. There are not any chips/indents where a stone/rock may have started the damage, but starts at the edge of the windshield. It started about 8 inches and now it is about 20 inches in less than 24 hours. We called our insurance company to ask about repairing it. Our deductible is $1000 so we will need to pay most all of it out of pocket. They let us know that unfortunately they've been seeing similar issues with other policyholder's subaru windshields the past 5 years or so and for us to contact the Subaru corporate office. We will be having it replaced by Safelite.

The vehicle has a power drain that occurs randomly. I purchased the vehicle used in Jan 2023. The car is driven daily at least 40-50 miles. The first occurrence it would not start in 11/23, jump started and it was fine for 3 months. The second time it would not start I checked the battery and it was completely drained. Jump started and I have had no problems yet. No accessories or lights were left on. I have a monitor on the OCB port and it shows the battery voltage on a 24 hour scale. I can see it drops down to a low level for a short time every 4-5 hours and then returns to normal. I don’t want to lose the battery in the middle of nowhere.

I parked at a store, i came out an hour later and there was about a foot long crack in my windshield. I asked to look at the security footage of the store and there was no contact from anything or anyone with the windshield. There is not point of impact, the windshield simply cracked on its own on the passenger side. There was absolutely no sign of any damage before this and i had recently had inspection at the dealership and there was no mention of any issues with the windshield. I reached out to the salesman who sold me this car from the Subaru dealership about 3 months ago and he said they could not help. I reached out to Subaru Customer Advocacy and they are contacting dealership, I have not heard back.
