I have replaced the battery once, have gone on longer drives to keep the battery charged, have had a software update so the battery will charge more and I trickle charge the battery several times a month and I still have been stranded four times in the last 30 days. I live in fear of leaving a dome light on or not closing the door properly when I park since I will have a 95% chance of the car not starting when I get back. This car is awesome and I love the way it drives and the lack of other issues it has had in the 3 years 7 months and 74799 miles that I have had it but it is now becoming a burden because of this issue. I am VERY Frustrated!. A few weeks ago I drove 460 miles in one day and the next morning the car would not start because a dome light had been on for 8 hours. I have never had that issue with any of the other cars I have owned.

We purchased a 2015 Subaru Outback limited. We really wanted to like this car. Unfortunately the leather seats were too small and very painfully uncomfortable. The center console in this car makes the interior space too cramped in the front cabin. And most most painful of all, the forward tilting head restraints caused severe pain in our upper backs, shoulders and necks. After a 30-minute drive, we were in very bad pain in our necks and backs. So we had to return the car to the dealer. This is really unfortunate because the car has wonderful attributes if it were not for these problems. Maybe petite small people can be okay with this car.

I do like Driving this but, Bought it as the vehicle is advertised as an SUV styled AWD wagon. First week of owning drove 6 hours through a wet snowstorm. The next day had a p1449 code. The Charcoal canister in the wheel well and under the Rear diff fills up with water somehow and blocks the gas tank vent system. The dash lights up with the CEL engine light and more and disables electronics in a way. It also prevents you from filling your tank as it shuts the gas fill reflex at the pump and takes a long time to fill the tank. WTF Subaru? Can't drive an SUV in wet snow? My Minivan handed wet snow better than this SUV. It also would not start at -24c? Failed Block heater? But only -24? I have been spoiled by a reliability of a Toyota Sienna that started down to -40c. This Outback has been subpar in this regard. I wish I bought a Highlander for the $5000 extra.

small reoccurring problems that I feel should have been covered but weren't, the gas cap opener failed, repaired $400 and happened again, should have been covered, I felt the leather on drivers seat was breaking down and splitting, no real sign yet but I could feel it. the transmission slipped more and longer than it should have as with I often backed out on to a main road and had to wait as it slipped dangerously long before drive would work.
