2016 Subaru Crosstrek 4dr Hatch

Unexplained dummy lights |
| 31000 mi | While my girlfriend was driving her car, the brake, ABS, and TCS lights all lit. Later that day the lights turned themselves off. I told her to keep an eye on it to see if it would happen again, at which point we'd take full advantage of that fantastic factory warranty! A month or so went by and the lights came on again, so a service trip was planned. The dealer was well aware of this failure, and stated that often when the failure occurs the vehicle gets stuck in "park", since the failure doesn't allow the shift lock to release. Since we'd experienced the failure only when driving, that failure mode didn't present itself. It took about 2 hours to conduct the repair, though I'm sure it could've been done more quickly if the dealership wasn't as busy as it was that day. A brake light switch is a 20-minute replacement if you can yoga yourself into position. I believe there may have been a service bulletin for this repair, but I can't be certain. The failure is quite common though, as per both the dealer and the internet. |
| 3000 mi | Factory Remote Start - Had installed as a gift for my wife and it worked so poorly I had them remove it and refund me. I am told by the dealer Subaru's with the push button start system do not work well with their own factory remote start. Range is limited to only a few car lengths or 20 or 30 feet - totally worthless and very expensive $600 plus. |
| 10000 mi | Camera view shifted showing bottom of car. |
| 12000 mi | AC drain tube clogged causing passenger floor bored flood |
| 36000 mi | A/C drain plug clogged again. Subaru refusing to replace despite numerous repairs. Will have to pay for repairs out of pocket after warranty. |
