Repeated dead batteries. Replaced OEM battery in year 2, new battery also comes up dead regularly. There is clearly a parasitic battery drain happening. Burning oil, this car burns more oil than any car I have ever owned. Subaru claims it is within specification, but their specification is 1 quart between changes, this is a ridiculous claim in 2021. Heat shield and exhaust noise. Always a new noise or exhaust leak. Lights are not adequate for country driving, it is dangerous.

Tapped the accelerator. The car suddenly lurched backward. I put it in neutral and hit the brakes. Nothing happened.I didnt want to hit there garage or my son in laws car so I swerved to the right. I hit the brakes and again nothing happened. The car hit the neighbor bush and eventually came to rest when it hit the neighbors Honda right door. I then put it drive and pulled back onto my daughters driveways and had a difficult time stopping the vehicle. It did approx. $2200 damage to my Subaru Outback sending it to the collision shop for two weeks.

2015 Subaru Outback. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle tail light issues. Consumer has previous complaint with a different vehicle listed in artemis. The consumer noticed while driving in the snow, the heat from the tail lights was not sufficient enough to keep snow from accumulating on the tail lamp.

Projector beam headlights with sharp cut off..... low beam lights are bright and great on level straight road at moderate speeds, deviate from that and it is dangerous. Need further penetration for high speed driving.. going downhill or on any slope and around curves limited visibility;;;. downhill freeway cloverleaf on ramp, impossible to negotiate safely with low beam.. depth of field 20 to 25 feet, extremely dangerous. Lights just cut off right in front of you. Have to turn on high beam to see... also lights do not light up the sides of roads very well, would not be able to see wildlife very well. Limited visibility turning corners in residential driving, hard to see pedestrians at side crosswalks. Hard to see projected path.. lights do not project high enough to the right to properly light up street signs. Self leveling may help with some of the issues, but not all of them.
