Subaru Ascent

"Water in car through sunroof, required full interior disassembly"

"Water coming in from around the skylight? Probably need to clean out drains"

"One of the gear mechanisms connecting the serpentine belt was making noise/wearing out."

"Vibration under load Started earlier this year, continued to worsen Resolved in June"

"Transmission made a brief squealing noise when downshifting to accelerate at cruising speed of 5-=65 mph. Dealer properly diagnosed and replaced transmission at no cost. It was an unfortunate incident but sealer and manufacturer handled it promptly and efficiently."

"The transmission started slipping and shifting hard, then one day it did not seem safe to drive. It was out of warranty (60,500 miles) so we took it to a local non-subaru repair shop that said it needed to be replaced, which would cost $10k. So I called Subaru just to check if we had any warranty and thankfully Subaru had extended the CVT warranty and the replacement was covered, but it took about 3 weeks in the shop since this was apparently a massive problem for this particular year model worldwide."

"You could feel the vehicle respond to the automatic shift."

"Known Subaru issue. Subaru has issues multiple recalls but none have fixed issue."

"already discussed"

"Battery issues since first purchased. Battery will drain it doors or trunk is left open. 15min loading up the car with the trunk open while camping would completely drain the battery requiring a jump start. This was when the car was less than 1 year old."

"Cabin lights would stop working. Had to replace entire unit after 3 attempts to repair. Was covered under warranty, but still a pain."

"The interior lights have a short that needs a replacement of the headliner controls. After multiple lightbulb replacements, the problem was discovered after the warranty expired."

"Had rotor and brake pads needing replacement at 75K miles"

"80% of the miles were highway miles. The brake pads were still very good. Yet all the rotors had to be replaced because they were warped."

"From the start, firm braking caused strong vibrations. After 4 years the brakes were changed and the vibrations ended."

"Roller screen dislodged from the track"

"Tailgate does not open automatically open completely. It can be opened manually."

"Climate control does not function as expected. Temperature does not match setting. Much warmer than setting."

"Temperature setting doesn't control heat much at all. It's either on at high temp or off, and we control it by shutting vents etc. Dealer implied we don't know how to set it on auto, but we have"

"Recall"

"The car would hesitate and cbuck at random times during acceleration. It dangerous to accelerate onto major highways. Dealer agreed it was a problem and had the car for diagnostics for 3 weeks. Finally said it was "probably" bad tank of gas. Problem has seemed to resolve for now."

"Has had clear coat peeling from bumpers since year 2"
