"TPS sensor alarms repeatedly"

Anonymous, MI (2025 Subaru Legacy Limited 2.5-L 4 Cyl)Squeaks, rattles, wind noises, seals and/or weather stripping, air and water leaks.
"There was rattle coming from the wear window area above the trunk shelf. Tech found the rear deck area dampener loose. Tech removed the rear deck paneling and removed the deck area dampener, applied isolation foam to the dampener and reassembled. No further noise heard."
Anonymous A., AL (2025 Subaru Legacy XT 2.4-L 4 Cyl turbo)"Rattling detected in the front driver side door area. Exact location not yet determined. Had door panel replaced but did not fix the issue. Subaru dealer applied sound isolating foam. Noise is more tolerable now but not fixed completely. Noticed the noise 3 months after purchase with 2,000 miles on it at the time. Experience the rattle sound almost every time you drive it. Problem yet to be 100% resolved. Reached out to Subaru of America and they presented me some options that fall under Lemon law."
