My battery died overnight. I jumó started and took it to Subaru who said I needed a new battery. My car has 28k miles and under 3 years since I bought it. They replace the battery and same thing happened 2 days later. I keep having to jumó start my car every other day and they don-??t seem to know what the problem is.

1. System failed. We purchased this car on 6/2/20, with a mileage of 6,174 miles. We are retired and don't drive much; for shorter distances we mostly rode our bicycles. In our recent living environment we can park cars outside in spaces, and in a large underground parking garage. While we did not drive much, I still needed to work on bicycles using tools stored in the rear trunk compartment, with the trunk lid in open position. What I did not know was that even the mere open car trunk was run electrically, though the large electronic dashboard gave a clue of a rather massive reliance on functions run electronically; after a mere 2-3 days of not driving we were made rudely aware that keeping the trunk lid open for any amount of time was a recipe for not being able to use the car when most needed; I should add here that the many Subaru drivers in our complex did not seem to have that problem as they are all "professional" drivers. We called our designated towing service and had to wait for over 3 hours for a rep to show up. Not having bought a car in years we were amazed how quickly the tow driver pulled out an electronic gadget and started the car. It immediately bought one like that, an electronic jump starter. SAFETY. Had my wife had to find transportation to an urgent appointment it would have become a safety problem. PROBLEM CONFIRMATION. No, it has not, except by me, as any greater than fleeting use of electricity in this car is a recipe for disaster. COMPONENT INSPECTED. Yes. After 2 more battery outages I took the car to the dealer and explained the problem (which had little impact on the employee). I had the battery checked, it was fine and working as designed. On 9/25/21, after another battery outage I took the car to the dealer again; again everything was operating as designed. SYMPTOMS OF THE PROBLEM. No. ASSESSMENT. I concluded I needed to keep the car RUNNING when using any function more than 5 minutes. This car is a computer on wheels.

The windshield on this Subaru has been replaced 4 times. Each time has been a crack that starts where the frame and windshield meet. No breakage or cracks have occurred in the center of the glass. The glass has been replaced by the dealer, and replacement has been needed within 6-9 months. The last occurrence was in my (driver) line of sight, which was a safety hazard. The prior 3 occurrences originated on the passenger side. The manufacturer is aware of this problem, with no recall or attempt to change the windshield glass.

Vehicle was parked for four and a half days in a public garage, with which I pay for monthly parking. Upon my request, vehicle was waiting for me to pick it up. The vehicle seemed to be intact. Just after leaving the garage, I used the front, then the back wipers to clean the windshields. The back (hatch) windshield completely shattered into the vehicle. Nothing hit it, no accidents with other vehicles or objects occurred. While no one was hurt, the incident was alarming. The integrity and strength of a vehicle's windows/ and windshields are important. There was no prior warning or alert.

We were driving South on 275 between 8mile and 7mile in Michigan in our 2019 Subaru Outback and out of nowhere what sounded like a pistol being shot next to our ears went off and glass came pouring in from the sunroof. What happened was the sunroof exploded out of nowhere. While driving 70mph on the highway. We contacted Subaru of America and they told us that without every shard of glass for them to inspect we could not prove that it was a defect. However let me make a note there were not cars very close to us, we weren't going under a bridge and there wasn't any one throwing things on the side of the highway. However Subaru blamed an imaginary pebble that hit the top of the sunroof dead on and that imaginary pebble did not end up inside of our car.

Our Subaru 2019 Outback suffered a crack during normal usage on the interstate at approx. 50 mph. The crack occurred two days ago (on 5/2/2021) and has since grown due to the vehicle's vibration during use. The vehicle qualifies as a make and model under recall by Subaru for windshield defects.

- Athens, GA, USA

I purchased a 2019 Subaru Outback in December 2018 and have had to replace the windshield three times in just over two years (June 2019, November 2020, April 2021). I owned a 2006 Subaru Outback for over 10 years and never had to replace the windshield. This is a safety risk and a design flaw and it needs to be corrected.
