Radio and control unit randomly restarts and freezes, affecting the radio from working, the vehicle control and driving assistance options, and the two usb ports which are the only power sources in the vehicle from working correctly. I have no audio and cannot reset the radio and cannot change vehicle control functions. When I select certain buttons it does nothing.

Radio constantly freezes. Cannot operate volume or any other functions. Won't even play music when frozen. Have to turn off to reboot. Rearview camera won't work sometimes. What's the point off paying for the extra safety feature if it doesn't work? this was a very expensive car. I am very unhappy.
Xmradio stopped working in the car after xmradio did an update. What they are saying it is due to Subaru and not xmradio. This problem is effecting a lot of cars and the way it sounds like it will have to be taken to a dealer after mid December to get an update at our cost. This has been going on 2 mnths already and no word from xmradio about this has come to us. It looks like it is effecting all of Subaru cars from about 2015 and newer. Even though no upgrades were done to the radio and the dealer can not fix it with the upgrade or the factory reset that xmradio says to do.
The cd player turns on by itself when radio is on. Nothing specifically makes it happen like hitting a bump or anything it does it while car is still. Car was takin on to be looked at but they said nothing could be done. Also, gear shift doesn't always lock in place. Which makes the car not able to start and/or move if on a slightly hill.

There was a recall with this model and year and they told me my car wasn't included in the recall when its doing exactly what the recall was for. I have no horn, cruise control, no radio controls and I don,t know if the air bag works. This car is dangerous to drive and Subaru refuses to repair I was told it would be $200. Plus just to diagnose it when they already know what it is. Any help would be appreciated.

I have had my Subaru Legacy for a little over 2 years (it's a 2014) and the blue tooth no longer works and I am being told that it's the radio and of course my warranty is up for things like that. I am very unhappy with this since my car is not that old and I shouldn't have any problems with it at this point.

Fuel system issue. I have owned my vehicle for approximately 9 months. I bought it as a used car from sloane in philadelphia. It has approximately 17000 miles on it and is considered still under warranty. I have had to take it in for service 4 times for the vehicle hesitating upon acceleration. The service center first said the hesitation came from a bad battery, second incident they stated they could not find anything wrong, third incident, when I almost got in an accident because the vehicle started to stall up entering the freeway traffic, I brought it back in for service. They did a thorough check and said it was the oxygen sensor. They replaced it. Approximately 2 weeks later, the vehicle began hesitating once again! again, at a crucial point in a traffic situation. I returned the vehicle again for service, they stated it was the codes, they just needed to be cleared. The vehicle is still hesitating and is causing a potential for serious injury upon driving under crucial situations. I have now resorted to public transportation. Audio system issue: vehicle's radio will display all it's features, but will not play any sound through speakers. This has been addressed with the service team on 3 past occasions, but it has not been remedied. Last know problem was the speaker amps and grounding mechanism for speaker, also the radio, when it does work gets interference when the rear defrost is on.
