general problems of the 2019 Subaru Legacy

Unintended acceleration, on 2 occasions. First occasion, car was in drive waiting at a traffic stop and the engine radically increased it's rpm from idle to over 6000 rpm, remaining there. Braking control maintained the automobile's position. Shifting the car into neutral caused rpm to increase further. The car was shut off, restarted, and seemed to function normally. On the second occasion, which occurred later the same day, the car was off and then started, and while still in park with my foot on the brake immediately jumped to over 6000, remaining there. Once again the car was shut off, restarted, and seemed to work normally. It was taken directly (and slowly) to the manufacturer's service center at my local Subaru dealership. They have not been able to re-create the problem as of this date.

Vehicle is equipped with Subaru eyesight driver assist which includes reverse automatic braking. Vehicle was reversing towards a parked vehicle on the street and the rab feature failed to apply the brakes and the vehicle collided with the parked vehicle. I am extremely disappointed that the safety system in this car failed to work as advertised/expected resulting in damages to both cars.

Vehicle was using the self driving feature of the Subaru eyesight system. With the system engaged, the vehicle is supposed to accelerate and apply brakes accordingly as to keep a distance from the vehicle in front. Today, that system failed. The vehicle, with the eyesight system engaged, accelerated right into the vehicle in front. There was no warning. The vehicle will be go for repair on 12/5/23. I have used the eyesight system since purchasing the vehicle in 2019 with no issues, except for today. Luckily, I was driving at a very low speed but this safety concern can cause catastrophic injuries if it is not fixed.
