2019 SUBARU CROSSTREK Complaints

MY 2019 SUBARU CROSSTREK HAS A SUBSTANTIAL POWER/ACCENTUATION HESITATION WHEN STARTING OUT. CAR IS NOT RESPONSIVE TO INCREASED ACCELERATION PRESSURE FOR A COUPLE SECONDS. ALSO, WHEN TRAVELING AT LOWER SPEEDS 0-50MPH AND YOU HAVE TO ADJUST YOU SPEED GRADUALLY BY LETTING UP AND GENTLY PUSHING ON THE GAS, THE CAR CAN SHUTTER/SLIGHT BUCK. THIS IS A CONSTANT/CONSISTENT ISSUE.

THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED AT THE BOTTOM CENTER WHILE SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY. IT IS NOT FROM A ROCK HITTING IT. CLEAN "LINE" 1 FOOT LONG. IT IS A BRAND NEW CAR. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF REPORTS ON MANY WEBSITES DESCRIBING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM

UNKNOWN CRACK ON WINDSHIELD FROM WHAT SEEMS TO BE NOTHING. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED OVERNIGHT OUTSIDE ON MY DRIVEWAY.

GAVE MY CAR A CAR WASH AND NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN MY WINDSHIELD. I DIDN'T HIT THE CAR HARD WITH THE BRUSH OR ANYTHING. IT JUST APPEARED OUT OF NOWHERE...

MY FIRST SUBARU. ON THE DRIVE HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP, A ROCK CRACKED THE WINDSHEILD. LESS THAN A WEEK LATER, WHILE TRAVELING ON A FREEWAY FOR JUST A FEW MINUTES, ANOTHER ROCK HIT THE WINDSHIELD AND CAUSED A MAJOR CRACK/ LONG LINE ACROSS ON ANOTHER PART OF THE WINDOW. SO UNEXPECTED, UNUSUAL AND I HOPE NOT PREDICTIVE OF CONSISTENT GLASS ISSUES. THE BIGGER ISSUE IS THAT UPON ACCELERATION, THE ACCELERATION OFTEN, BRIEFLY, LOSES POWER. LIKE SOMETHING IS IMPEDING THE FUEL MOMENTARILY. I'VE BECOME ACCUSTOMED TO IT BUT IT TOOK SOME GETTING USED TO. I WORRY THAT IT IS THE SIGN OF A MAJOR DEFECT/ISSUE. THE CAR IS THE CURRENT MODEL YEAR, THOUGH, I DID PURCHASE IT WITH 6,000 MILES ON IT. I'VE WONDERED IF THESE ISSUES ARE WHAT CAUSED THE PREVIOUS OWNER TO TRADE IT IN WITHIN MONTHS OF BUYING IT NEW.

I EXPERIENCED A SPONTANEOUS WINDSHIELD CRACK ON MY VEHICLE, IT STARTED IN THE UPPER DARKENED SECTION OF THE WINDSHIELD.

DRIVING ABOUT 40 MILES AN HOUR, AND IT WAS QUITE A WINDY DAY AND A SMALL PEBBLE HIT THE WINDSHIELD AND CAUSED A SMALL CRACK WHICH QUICKLY ELONGAGED TO ABOUT 36 INCHES

I SEE THIS AS A POTENTIAL SAFETY PROBLEM AND NOT AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY PROBLEM. IT INVOLVES A 2019 SUBARU CROSSTREK. ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, WEEKS OR MONTHS APART, THE HOOD HAS POPPED UP 1 INCH AND HAS BEEN STOPPED BY THE SAFETY HOOK. I NOTICE THIS ONLY WHEN I REACH HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THE FRONT HOOD "FLUTTERS" UP AND DOWN. THERE IS NO INDICATION, FROM INSIDE THE CAR, THAT THE HOOD HAS PARTIALLY RELEASED AT SPEEDS UNDER 50 MPH. ON NONE OF THESE 3 OCCASIONS, HAS THE HOOD RELEASE LEVER, NEAR THE DRIVERS LEFT LEG, BEEN ACTIVATED, PULLED OR BUMPED. I'VE ONLY INTENTIONALLY OPENED THE HOOD ONCE OR TWICE -- AND THE PROCESS SEEMS NORMAL. THIS HOOD RELEASE PROBLEM HAS NEVER RESULTED IN LOSS OF FORWARD VISION OR WITH THE HOOD IN A FULLY "UP" POSITION. THE CAR IS 7 MONTHS OLD WITH ABOUT 7,500 MILES ON IT; SO THIS IS HAPPENING ROUGHLY EVERY 2 MONTHS. I RARELY DRIVE ON DIRT OR BUMPY ROADS. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW EXACTLY WHEN THE HOOD RELEASE ACTUALLY OCCURS WITHOUT PULLING UPWARD ON THE HOOD REGULARLY OR DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THERE HAS BEEN NO FRONT END DAMAGE OR TRAUMA.

CUTS OUT MOMENTARILY WHEN ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED AND DEALER SAYS THATS NORMAL. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN MERGING IN TRAFFIC.

I WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC TO COMPLETE STOP, AS I WAS ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE STALLED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ONLY ONCE. I HAVE HAD ANOTHER INCIDENT WHEN I WAS BACKING UP TO PARK MY CAR IN MY GARAGE, MY BACK UP CAMERA FROZE WHILE IM STILL IN MOTION THEN THE INFOTAINMENT REBOOTS.
