The battery in this car has been terrible. 3 times it has been too low to start the car after leaving the ignition on for under 10 minutes. Most recently it was seriously struggling and then failed to start the car in the cold (28F) weather. Decided to just buy a new, larger CCA battery for it. Also, at no point during the failed starts has the Low Battery voltage indicator come on, despite it failing to start the car. Not very impressed with my first Subaru so far. 
6800 mi Car was delivered new with a faulty steering wheel control knob (audio volume). Supposed to light up. Did not. Missed during quality control out of the plant and by the dealer. Minor issue. Will be repaired at next maintenance trip... 
13020 mi car was deliverd in Oct '14 with a faulty driver steering wheel volume control button. repaired at this maint. trip. 
12000 mi Battery required a jump start and tested low/bad. Dealer tested and confirmed, replaced under new car warranty.

Replace failed air conditioner compressor. Subaru contributed goodwill payment towards repair in view of very low mileage.
