Since having this vehicle, had the following issues: brakes (three times to get it right) and the jury is still out. The hood was vibrating at hwy speeds (60-70 mph). Both the above has tech bulletins out however, it was up to the consumer to report it. SMH. The CVT has its moments. Beside the above mentioned, not a bad vehicle.

Ascent disappointment

Traded a 2014 Highlander with 285,000 miles for this piece of expensive junk. Ascent gets worse gas milage at 19 mpg average after 3,600 miles. Driving more gently than I ever did with Highlander trying to get to 20mpg...impossible!! Worse by far the transmission is extremely lurchy. Very scary incident (provoking my review) merging onto highway when I got no (none!!!) transmission response attempting to accelerate, cars approaching fast from behind nearly causing my first accident ever at 58 years! When the transmission finally engaged, it literally threw my head against the headrest because I had the accelerated fully pressed desperate for an acceleration response. Service says nothing is wrong with it. Oh, and both keyless entry fobs quit working last week after one month of ownership. I can't express how disappointing this car is, worse car I have ever bought, ever! This car is dangerous due to the transmission issue that they won't acknowledge. I hate this car.

I can’t say enough about my bad experience with this vehicle. From the get-go we’ve had issues. First it was Computer problems to start with that eventually Got resolved “sort of”. The solution was to disable certain features on the car that were misfiring (so to speak). Also I’ve had to have my brakes replaced or fixed 5 times in a year and a half. The computer issues are better but not gone and I’m sure I’ll have to have brake work done again in the next few months as clearly there is a problem but Subaru can’t figure it out . I’m in the process of filing a second complaint with Subaru but haven’t heard back from anyone in over a week. Crappy car, bad customer service. Not up to Subaru standards at all. Do not buy.
Very nice vehicle

I wanted a safe vehicle and the Ascent was at the top of my list. The ride is very good and the seats are very comfortable. Also, wanted the rear bench seat which was a little more difficult to find. It would be nice if there were more color choices/options available especially for the interior. Not a fan of the OEM Falken tires but they're okay for now.

I have been a loyal Honda Pilot consumer but God showed me this new Subaru SUV and I absolutely love it. I am thankful for my new car and look forward to driving it everyday!
