I have this car ~2,000 miles for about 6 weeks now. I noticed the annoying noise problem, that seems from right side of quarter panel window. Took the car to dealer, they confirmed it, tighted the dash board, DIDN'T resolve the issue. Second time to dealer, they said they just had another '15 Outback with same problem. This time the technician ordered the window deal, still waiting for the part. It is not very loud noise, usually lower frequency than typical outside wind noise. It is getting very annoying, especially at night and quiet country road, it is a shame for such a nice and quiet vehicle. Love the gas mileage, I am getting 28-29 mpg on average of 70:30 highway/city mix.
The best car I've ever owned

I have a 2015 Outback with Eyesight, Moon roof etc. Fully loaded. I don't like leather seats and I'm so grateful to Subaru that you can get the latest safety gear without leather. I live in Vermont on a long steep dirt road with a steep dirt driveway. This car has handled all condition on all types of roads with a perfect blend of comfort and handling. We had the worst winter of ice, snow and cold in 25 years. I have not once gotten stuck, have not once even slipped in driving through all kinds of ice and snow. I've had other 4wd/AWD SUVS and nothing has come even remotely close to this Outback. Mud season is starting and it's handling slick mud and deep ruts with near perfect performance.

This is my first Subaru purchase in my 61 years of life. Being self employed driving an average of 25,000 miles per year, I have never had to replace a windshield. Six weeks ago while driving my windshield developed a crack coming up from the passenger side just under the wiper blade for now reason. I must say Subaru replaced it for free, but a huge inconvenience. Last week a rock kicked up on windshield and immediately got started cracking where it was hit. My insurance covered this one, had it done at my house, but with the eyesight technology I had to go to dealer today to get it recalibrated. Drove the 40 minute ride home and now the car says eyesight not working. I love the eyesight technology, but it had a recall in August and now this. It seems like I am spending way too much time at the dealer.

I decided to buy a new outback after checking out Toyota 4runner, Jeep Grand Cherokee and Ford Explorer. You will not find any cheap rattling hard parts on the inside unlike toyota, jeep and ford. I was disgusted by the interior quality of Toyota 4runner, all hard plastic. Jeep Cherokees interior felt like everything was already going to fall apart. The interior of outback is all soft touch and solid. The gas milage is quit impressive for a huge AWD, unless you drive it very hard. The engine is solid and proven to be reliable. Lots of options and features included that other brands charge for. good looking car which won't go out of style anytime soon. lots of space inside for a big family. Update I love the car so much that I bought an older outback too. I loved the older one also.

I have had persistent problems with a dead battery. If I don't drive the car for at least one-half hour each day,the battery will be dead the next day. So far Subaru Roadside Service has jumpstarted my 2 1/2 month old car (1850 miles) three times. The poor quality battery has changed the way I use the car. I am looking into either getting a replacement heavy duty battery or carrying a portable battery jumper in the car. I have read the manual to be sure I have not left some on. I verify each time I turn the car off that all internal lights and power is off. I sometimes do not use some of the equipment because it might drain the battery. I would not buy this car again.
