NHTSA complaint #11705336, 2025 · crash

“My 2012 Subaru Legacy experiences involuntary engine stalling when coming to a quick stop, such as in stop-and-go traffic or during sudden braking at intersections. When the engine shuts off without warning, power steering and braking assist are lost, creating a serious risk of collision. This is a known issue documented by Subaru of America in Technical Service Bulletin 16-90-13R, applicable to 2010–2012 Legacy and Outback vehicles with CVT transmissions. Subaru attributes the condition to excessive thrust washer wear inside the torque converter, which prevents proper release of lock-up clutc…”
NHTSA complaint #11706789, 2025

“CVT transmission issues persist beyond the limited warranty extension that has now expired from Subaru. Vehicle RPMs regularly drop from 1000 to 500 when coming to a stop, causing engine to knock as it tries to stall. Vehicle then occasionally hesitates when attempting to move under power. Knocking and near stalling occasionally results in a sensation of vehicle being hit from behind while stopped with vehicle in drive and brakes applied.”

NHTSA complaint #11705336, 2025 · crash

“WHEN BRAKING, THE CAR OFTEN STALLS AND ALL REQUIRES A SHIFT INTO PARK, AND A RESTART OF THE ENTIRE ENGINE BEFORE BEING ABLE TO PROCEED. WHEN IT STALLS, STEERING IS ALSO AFFECTED. THIS FREQUENTLY HAPPENS ON CITY STREETS, BUT ALSO HAPPENS WHEN PULLING INTO PARKING SPACES AND WHEN SLOWING FOR TURNING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING WITH INCREASING FREQUENCY.”

IT DROVE FINE OVER LUNCH AND THEN WHEN I STARTED THE CAR AT 5PM THE STEERING MADE A WHINING NOISE (TYPICAL, FROM MY UNDERSTANDING, OF A POWER STEERING FAILURE) AND WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN.

NHTSA complaint #11705336, 2025 · crash

“The brake lines of my vehicle were corroded and started leaking brake fluid. The brakes no longer work and started failing when I was driving up a hill. Luckily there was no accident, however, not having functioning breaks is an obvious safety concern. An independent service center initially looked at the damage and suggested that the corrosion is unacceptable for the life of the vehicle. They provided me with the recall information I include below and instructed me to take the vehicle to a Subaru dealership. The dealership confirmed the issue and offered a quote of $5,000 for the repair. Th…”
NHTSA complaint #11593722, 2024

“THE ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE HAS FAILED AS DETERMINED BY THE MODESTO SUBARU DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSTIC. THEY RECOMMEND REPLACING THE EPB. I PAID $157.50 FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC AND THEY WANT ANOTHER $1250 TO REPAIR. THIS PROBLEM IS ALREADY PART OF A RECALL FOR 2012 SUBARU LEGACY BUT MY SPECIFIC VIN IS NOT COVERED. IF THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THEY SHOULD REPAIR REGARDLESS OF VIN. HOW DO I GET MY VIN ON THE LIST? THIS IS THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH MY SUBARU WHICH STARTED ONE DAY AFTER TURNING ON THE VEHICLE AND RELEASING THE PARKING BRAKE.”
