Adaptive Cruise Control Problems of Subaru Forester - part 2

During the January snow storm in the washington, DC area the adas system began to malfunction. The system that controls adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning and lane departure warning all shut off. The vehicle was parked at an upward facing angle in order to allow all moisture to drain out/off the back of the vehicle. Once dry, the issue resolved itself. The same issue happened in the past and was tied to an issue with a brake light switch. It appears that the same issue is occurring again on the vehicle and moisture is still effecting the brake light switch.

While driving n on I 24 near nashville TN my eyesight assistant turned off illuminated warning light, as it cancelled my adaptive cruise control at freeway speeds in heavy traffic, while engageing my my brakes and illuminated my forward collision warning coming very close to causing serious accident to whereiended up on shoulder due to severe vibration from my defective passenger lower control arm deffectivecv axle. All of which were looked at and reported to crown Subaru service department. They had my vehicle for 2 days, repaired air bag and rearcoil spring recall told me my passenger lower control arm was bent and cv axle was defective the stayed my extended warranty didn't cover it when the warranty personnel said it would be covered. Never even checked my eyesight assist or other safety items associated with it even though I explained it shutoff and turns on and off sporadically. Is it going to take a death or deaths to get these people to do there job and repair and stand by the vehicles we purchase which employees them but a life isn't worth and hour inspection by crown Subaru or Subaru corp start caring. It was in there shop 2 days prior to incident I could have at least been warned about operation of my vehicle.

Rock damage to windshield. Subaru advises to replace with oem glass to guarantee safety systems operate correctly making this a safety issue. The problem is that Subaru windshields are back ordered. There are two problems here. First, Subaru windshields are very susceptible to damage, perhaps more than others. Second, Subaru fails to maintain critical safety system parts.

July 31, 2021i noted an approximately 6-inch unprovoked crack originating at the outer edge in the windshield on the passenger side. The beginning of September I went to Subaru city, milwaukee, WI and pictures were taken by the assistant manager, eric and sent to Subaru. I returned November 23rd after no follow up to find out "more pictures were needed" per the assistant manager. Again, no follow up so I returned January 19th, and had yet more pictures taken by another employee, [xxx] because they couldn't locate them. I received a call back the next day to confirm submission. After no response to about 10 phone calls to the assistant service manager again, I returned March 7th and was told by another employee, [xxx], there was a new database and couldn't find the pictures. Then was called back and told not under warranty despite requesting repair due to industry defect in the windshields with eyesight. The crack has extended to about 12" from the driver's side edge. I'm concerned about the integrity of the windshield should there be an impact and the eyesight isn't reliable with this crack. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

2016 Subaru Forester. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle eyesight system problems, frontal collision avoidance system and adaptive cruise control system issues. The consumer stated occasionally, the system would shut down and the dashboard displayed the appropriate warning lights. The system would re-start on its own anywhere from immediately to five minutes after failure. While the system was inoperative, the frontal collision avoidance system and the adaptive cruise control did not work. If he engage the cruise control, it would disengage without warning and the vehicle would respond by slowing down.

Five years ago my "check engine" light came on and the cruise control light came on and it would not work. I took it to suberu in fort worth and they couldn't find the problem bu tsaid my gas cap was not sealing. God new one but didn't help. This year when I went to get it checked for regisration they woudn't pass it. Took it to mechanic who installeda new evaprotive vapor canister for $920. That didn't work but wouldn't try again. Later another mecanic said the problem was "not enough driving". (less that 100 miles a month. I have been driving the car with the check engine on an no cruise control for 6-7 years with no trouble, so it is a fault of the car's systems. I can't get it registered because of this problem. I can disconnedt the negative battery post briefly and the light goes off for a day or two. So what can you do for me? I love the car but hate the problem. I am 90, but that's not the problem.
