SUBARU IMPREZA 2024 FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

While driving at various speeds, my vehicle consistently produces a clicking noise from the upper right-rear C-pillar area. The noise is most noticeable when the vehicle body twists slightly during normal driving, such as when traveling over uneven pavement, entering driveways, or making turns. The condition has persisted and is repeatable.  The vehicle was inspected over approximately six weeks by an authorized dealership. After extensive diagnosis, the dealership identified a suspected welding defect in the upper right-rear C-pillar/body structure. The suspected defective area is available for inspection. The dealership requested authorization from the manufacturer to repair the condition under warranty, but the request was denied. To my knowledge, neither the manufacturer nor the dealership has provided any engineering analysis or technical evidence identifying an alternative root cause for the suspected welding defect.  The C-pillar is a structural component of the vehicle that contributes to body rigidity and occupant protection. If the clicking noise is caused by a defective or failed body weld, the condition could indicate reduced structural integrity or progressive deterioration over time. Although no crash or injury has occurred, I am concerned that continued operation with a suspected structural weld defect could compromise vehicle safety or crashworthiness.  No warning lights or diagnostic messages were displayed before or during the occurrence of this condition. The primary symptom has been the repeatable clicking noise from the upper right-rear C-pillar area during normal driving. I am requesting that this condition be investigated to determine whether it represents a manufacturing defect that could affect other vehicles of the same model.

My entire dash went out. Nothing worked. This car has only 3500 miles on it. I got danger signs and it said to stop driving the car. Danger. I also got messages in my e-mail I think from Starlink to stop driving the car and bring it in to service. It was dangerous. Service had it for two weeks. They didn't know what to do. They asked if I did something with wires. I'm a [XXX]  woman and4'10". What a question. Then some guy at Subaru said "they'll probably have to put a whole new dash in. Days later I called again.Another guy said they had to call all over America to try and find the part. No one to my knowledge has inspected this. I am working with Subaru Customer Care. I don't want this car. I do not feel safe in it.For something so new these emergency problems should not be happening. I want a cash back or give me another car.They had it for two weeks and gave me no explanation what happened. It is not a safe car. I hope Customer Care will help me. Someone has to. I don't want this car. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SUBARU IMPREZA 2024 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL

I own a 2024 Subaru Impreza (base trim, FB24 engine). The engine has developed repeated oil leaks into the spark plug wells due to failed spark plug tube seals / valve cover sealing on the same engine.  The first occurrence was around 24,000 miles. The dealer found engine oil in the spark plug tubes, diagnosed leaking spark plug tube seals (and/or valve cover gasket), and performed repairs under warranty. At that time, the car was relatively new and maintained on schedule.  The second occurrence happened again around 30,000 miles. The dealer again found oil in the spark plug tubes, indicating repeat failure of the same type of seals on this lowâmileage engine. This has already happened twice within approximately 6,000 miles on a 2024 vehicle.  Oil in the spark plug tubes can cause misfires, rough running, and potential damage to ignition coils and the catalytic converter. It also raises concerns about stalling or loss of power if the misfires worsen while driving. I am concerned that this may be a systemic defect in the FBâseries engines used in lateâmodel Subaru vehicles, not normal wear.  I am requesting that NHTSA track this issue as a potential safetyârelated defect involving engine sealing components (spark plug tube seals / valve cover gaskets) that allow engine oil to leak into the spark plug wells on 2024 Subaru Impreza models at low mileage.
