2015 Subaru Legacy UNKNOWN OR OTHER

On 04 /17/ 2023 warning, accelerated and would not stop after leaving a car wash From Mister Car Wash on 4423 NE Central Ave I stepped on my 2015 Subaru Legacy brakes several times, trying to stop the car but it wouldn't so I thought about hiting a pole to made it stop I was screaming I thought I wasn't gone make it, so I finally made a turn right on 49th Ne Central Ave and hit a pole so the car stopped right away and I had to call tow truck to take it to Subaru dealership but they are telling me the car is in good condtion nothing wrong with it but I'm scare to take it back also I have reported this to q police the day it happened

Subaru installed battery installed by Subaru in September 2020 failed with out warning. There was no sign of battery weakness nor were there any warning lights or messages of any kind displayed.Car was driven, parked and when we came back car would not start. No lights were left or equipment left on. Car is at dealers now being checked. Diablo Subaru in Walnut Creek CA,. Fortunately since the incident occurred when the car was parked there was no danger to us or others.

I HAVE VERY SMALL CHIPS ALL OVER THE WINDSHIELD

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY MY WINDSHIELD BROKE FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

IN FEBRUARY 2017 WE EXPERIENCED UNINTENDED ACCELERATION ON 6 OCCASIONS. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. THEY SAID THAT WE MUST HAVE DONE SOMETHING TO CAUSE THE ACCELERATION. WE KNOW THAT WAS NOT THE CASE, BUT WE CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE CAR. IT HAPPENED ANOTHER TIME IN JULY. THE REALLY BAD INCIDENT OCCURRED ON SEPTEMBER 5, 2017 IN A PARKING GARAGE. AS WE WERE EXITING THE PARKING SPACE, THE CAR TOOK OFF ON ITS OWN. THIS TIME, WE HIT A CONCRETE PILLAR ALONG THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND GRAZED ONE PARKED VEHICLE BEFORE GETTING THE CAR TO STOP. ALSO, THIS TIME, AFTER WE TURNED OFF THE CAR AND IT SET FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES, WE TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO SEVERELY REV. EVERY TIME THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION OCCURRED, WE WERE EITHER STOPPED AT A LIGHT, IN TRAFFIC, IN A PARKING LOT, OR AT A GAS PUMP OR MOVING VERY SLOWLY WITH OUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE AS ONE WOULD IN A PARKING LOT WHEN TURNING INTO OR OUT OF A SPACE. SUBARU AGAIN TOLD US THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR AND SUGGESTED THAT WE MUST BE TWO FOOTED DRIVERS, WHICH WE ARE NOT. WE HAVE REFUSED TO DRIVE THE CAR OR TAKE REPOSSESSION OF IT. SUBARU MADE US GET THE BODY OF THE CAR REPAIRED BEFORE THEIR ENGINEERS EVEN LOOKED AT IT. THIS WAS A LEASED CAR. SUBARU SAID WE HAD TO CONTINUE TO PAY OFF THE LEASE BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. WE KNOW THEY ARE WRONG.

STARLINK MULTIMEDIA FEATURES/SCREEN IS TOTALLY OBSTRUCTED DURING DAYLIGHT DRIVING AND THE SUN IS REFLECTED OFF THE FACTORY INSTALLED NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEM. THE SCREEN DISPLAYS SQUIGGLY LINES ON A GRAY/BLACK SCREEN UNTIL SUN IS NOT REFLECTING. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AS WHEN THIS IS HAPPING THE REAR VIEW CAMERA IS NOT VISIBLE AND WHILE DRIVING A QUICK GLANCE TURNS INTO A LONG LOOK TO SEE WHAT IS BEING DISPLAYED!

REPLACING THE WINDSHIELD 3 TIMES ALREADY IN A 2 YEAR PERIOD. NO CHIPS ARE CREATED FROM SMALL INTERACTIONS WITH OBJECT LIKE LITTLE STONES BUT IMMEDIATE CRACKS. THE VEHICLE WAS IN STATIONARY AND MOVING POSITIONS ON A STREET AND HIGWAY. MAKES ME WONDER WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN IF THERE WOULD BE MORE SERIOUS COLLISION THAN JUST A SMALL ROCK.

WINDSHIELD CRACKS FROM EDGES. NO NOTICEABLE CHIPS. CRACK STARTED WITH ROCK HITS. POSSIBLE DEFECTIVE GLASS.

JACK FAILED. AFTER LIFTING MY CAR TO CHANGE THE TIRE THE JACK COLLAPSED, WHILE TRYING TO LIFT IT MORE.

THE GAS LID WOULDN'T OPEN WHEN THE LEVER WAS PULLED. I HAD TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR IT TO GET FIXED.

JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR (2015 SUBARU LEGACY PREMIUM) A MONTH AGO. AM GETTING WATER INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FROM MERELY CAR WASHING AND I ASSUME FROM RAIN AS WELL. THIS IS DUE FROM THE LACK OF PROPER WEATHER STRIPPING ON BOTH THE RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE OF THE HOOD. MY DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN ADVISED AND I AM AWAITING TO HEAR IF ANY RESOLUTION. THE FOLLOWING WAS LISTED ON A WEBSITE FROM ANOTHER CURRENT OWNER: 2015 LEGACY - WATER / SNOW ENTERING TOP OF ENGINE BAY & BURNING SMELL HI FELLOW 2015 LEGACY OWNERS. HAS ANYONE ELSE DISCOVERED THIS DESIGN / SAFETY / MECHANICAL DEFECT YET? I LIVE IN THE NORTHEAST USA; OWNED MY 2015 LEGACY FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS, AND HAVE BEEN SMELLING THE ENGINE BURNING SINCE I PURCHASED. AT FIRST, THE DEALER SAID THE SMELL WAS CAUSED BY THE RUSTPROOFING SPRAYED ON THE EXHAUST, HOWEVER DURING A SNOW STORM I DISCOVERED SNOW & WATER ENTERING THE TOP OF MY ENGINE BAY, DRENCHING / FLOODING OVER ELECTRICAL & MECHANICAL COMPONENTS AND CAUSING THE TOXIC BURNING SMELL FROM THE BURN OFF OF DEICING CHEMICALS / SALTS USED ON ROAD SURFACES ENTERING THE ENGINE BAY DUE TO A LACK OF WEATHER STRIPPING. MY DEALER INSPECTED MY CAR LAST WEEK AND CONFIRMED THE LACK OF INSTALLED WEATHER STRIPPING AND WATER ENTERING THE ENGINE BAY AS AN ISSUE. THEY CONFIRMED ALL 2015 LEGACYS ARE DESIGNED THIS WAY. THEY SUBMITTED A EQMR (ELECTRONIC QUALITY MONITORING REPORT) TO SUBARU OF AMERICA; NO RESPONSE YET. (THE DEALER SENDS THE EQMR TO SUBARU WHEN THEY ENCOUNTER AN ISSUE THAT THEY CANNOT FIX) I AM SHARING THIS VIDEO TO ALERT ALL 2015 LEGACY OWNERS TO THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY & MECHANICAL DEFECT. CHECK YOUR ENGINES; CONDUCT YOUR OWN WATER/SNOW TESTS AND SHARE RESULTS. CONTACT SUBARU OF AMERICA, YOUR DEALER AND THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY
