    - Londonderry, NH

    The windshield formed a crack towards the bottom of the passenger side and was about 3-5inches to start. Over time, the crack grew to approximately over 1ft. Later on, another crack began forming on the drivers side of the windshield, also starting at only a few inches, and now has grown into almost 1ft long. Am in process of looking to have it repaired, but have not set a date yet. Having a cracked windshield is an overall safety risk any time you drive the car due to it's ability to impact visibility as it grows/becomes worse. The windshield has not yet been inspected by: manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, but has been seen during State Inspection. There were no warnings/messages/symptoms before seeing the crack - They first appeared a day or two after I had recently had my car's oil changed at an autobody shop. My friend noticed it when sitting in the car when we got in at my driveway. There are no signs of malicious or accidental damage present where the crack begins, and no signs of a dent from a rock chipping the windshield.

    I do not know what caused the fire, but maybe the battery or something electrical. The car stalled and the. I re-started the car and no warning lights came on the dashboard. I then parked the car. Upon exiting I noticed the front driver’s hood smoking. I went into the bank was parked at and within minutes my car was in flames. The entire engine burned and my car is totaled. A fire marshal was coincidentally on scene and documented the entire event. Currently, this car is under investigation by both my insurance company Liberty Mutual and also Subaru. No warning lights were lit on the car. A fire and police report have been filed, and I have many pictures. If this car had gone on fire in my garage my house would also have burned.

    In 4 1/2 years of ownership I have had to replace the battery three times and the front window twice. My other car travels more miles over similar roads and has had no issues. The Subaru has been in the shop for window replacement and the recalibration of the safety system twice. It has been in the shop at least four times for battery issues.

    - CANOGA PARK, CA

    BOUGHT MY CAR IN 2017 AND I HAD MY BATTERY REPLACED 2.5 YEARS LATER DUE TO LOW BATTERY, MULTIPLE JUMPSTARTS, FAILURE STARTING, AND SEVERE CORROSION. THE REPLACEMENT BATTERY WAS FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND WITHIN 6 MONTHS IT HAD SEVERE CORROSION. DURING SERVICE THE CORROSION WAS CLEARED, BUT RETURNED BY THE TIME THE NEXT SERVICE WAS DUE. I WAS ASKED TO PAY $57 TO CLEAR THE CORROSION WHICH I DECLINED BECAUSE I THOUGHT SINCE I GOT THE BATTERY BY THE DEALERSHIP THEY WOULD DO IT FOR FREE. 2 SERVICES LATER (1 YEAR) THE DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDS BATTERY SERVICE AT $90 DUE TO SEVERE CORROSION. WITHIN THAT YEAR, I'VE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH LOW VOLTAGE. SUBARU HAS REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE WITH THE BATTERY CORROSION AND THEY KEEP PUSHING A PAY-FOR BATTERY SERVICE.
