I have owned the car for ~15 months and driven it for 2500 miles. The battery has failed four times. Each time subaru has replaced the battery under warranty and told me that nothing is wrong and that the car simply needs to be driven more. I now see that this is a systemic problem for subarus (e.G. Https://www.Torquenews.Com/1084/subaru-battery-drain-lawsuit-new-claims-now-include-forester-wrx-and-legacy) a recall is needed to force subaru to address this problem.

Upon applying parking brake to the maximum extent possible, which is beyond 11 clicks as stated as required by subaru, and the vehicle is on an incline greater than 8 degrees, the vehicle will not remain in place. I am also concerned that if the brake is required in an emergency situation, it will not effectively stop the vehicle as the wheels are still allowed to turn more freely than expected given its inability to hold the vehicle on a hill. I took the vehicle to subaru twice expressing the complaint and was summarily denied service. The technician refused to even inspect vehicle even after requesting an inspection. The service technician informed me that you must apply the parking brake to 11 clicks and put the vehicle in gear. The force required to pull the parking brake to 11 clicks is more than many people are able to apply in a single motion as required by federal law. In addition, air compression is explicated stated in federal law as not allowed as a mechanism of force for use in a parking brake system. Air compression is what is used in the engine as a means to prevent the wheels from moving when in gear. Further, the parking brake system shall according to federal law, use an accumulation of force independent of other systems for the parking brake, which is not the case per the instruction from subaru. Lastly, subaru also instructed me to put a wheel stop behind the wheel as a standard practice in this common parking scenario, which isn't possible to do if i have to take my foot off the brake to get out of the car to place the wheel stop. As soon as i take my foot off the brake, the vehicle moves so i am unable to safely exit vehicle in order to place the wheel stop. This is a serious safety issue both for keeping a parked vehicle in place and also in an emergency brake scenario.

Sitting at a stoplight, a loud pop occurs and when i look back, there is a hole in the middle of the rear windshield. It is approximately 2 inches tall and at least 18 inches wide. It was likely an implosion. No objects were found near, on, or in the car. The windshield crumbled after that, as each acceleration dropped more glass inside the car. Nothing prompted it, just sitting stationary at a stoplight. Defroster was not on, temperature was approximately 45 fahrenheit with minimal wind. Had been driving for 10 minutes. My rear facing car seat, with child in it, collected a fair amount of the glass.
