Thanks to everyone for the encouraging words. Subaru of America hasn't replied to 4 phone calls or half a dozen emails over the past few weeks. I am so disappointed with the company at this point. All they had to do was keep trying to fix the car, but even that was too difficult for them. Two of the three dealers I went to for repairs spent more time blaming others than trying to repair the car. Door seal leaks blamed on window tint, but TSB was available for the leaks. Battery drain blamed on factory trailer wiring, but TSB for charging system fixed that issue. The list goes on. I wish everyone the best of luck with their cars, as a whole they do seem to be pretty reliable, just not in my case. I will update with final outcome if I ever hear back from SOA.

Final update
Well, Subaru clearly doesn't care about their customers at all, they won't even respond, at all. My requests for assistance from Tom Doll the current CEO of SOA have fallen on deaf ears as well. At one point I was told that he has received my messages by a customer service representative, but he apparently takes a hands off approach to requests, not even passing them on to a corporate resolution center which nearly all companies have.
I just traded off the car this past weekend and the dealer I bought from sold it to a Subaru dealer, so they can deal with its continued problems. If anyone is looking for a better (my opinion) alternative to the Outback, take a look at the new Buick Regal TourX. It is made in Germany and is the Opel/Vauxhaul Insignia over in that part of the world. It drives amazing, good power, good fuel economy, more space, and better comfort than the Outback. Plus it is priced very similarly, even better if you catch GM's big rebates, which I used during my purchase. I sure hope nobody else has to experience the mess that I just went through. Enjoy your rides. |

I have a 2015 that had coolant disappearing. Dealer can't give a good answer except evaporation. I've never had a car lose coolant like mine. I think subaru is hiding something.
On the highway my drivers door sounds like a wind tunnel My XmRadio can't view categories and Sirius says subaru needs to update their system. From what I've found, it is a subaru problem. At times my rear lift gate sticks and won't open. CVY shifting issues - Errrr don't even get me started! Quote:

Most if not all of your complaints have had TSB s on them and corrected.

Is there a TSB for coolant loss. I have that issue on a certified used 2015 I bought in July 2018. Dealer pressure checked and said it lost 2 pounds in 10 minutes tech said that is normal. Tech said loss is due to evaporation and consumption.
Because I have coolant disappearing I've done a lot of searching and there are a fairly large amount of people who notice the same thing. There is also the same fairly large number of people who get the same response from the dealer - all is normal. So yes, I would be interested to know if there is a TSB for coolant loss. |

I do not know about a TBS on the coolant but many (including myself) have seen small amounts of loss especially when car is new. Then again it depends on the amount you are loosing. Temperature of engine will slightly change the level. I ve noticed on some of my cars that if the ground is not perfectly level the tank will show differently.
My xm radio was changed on my 18 in the first 1k miles, that corrects that issue. It s in the none repairable unit. Vent window seal are common in the 15 s. CVT now should be covered to 100K. |

As the moderators have erased at least one of my relevant posts, I am left thinking that they too are not interested in the truth of car issues. Lets see how long this post stays online! Just delete my account if you have issues with my honesty.
