2023 Subaru Crosstrek recalls

I filled up my 2023 Subaru Crosstrek with gasoline and a short time later the Check Engine light came on as did the warning lights that the safety features associated with the EyeSight system indicating it was no longer functioning. It encouraged me to get the car checked immediately. It turned out that I had not completely tightened the gas cap. I tightened the gas’s cap hoping the safety featured would reset - it didn’t. I contacted Subaru and they said it should reset after a few stops when the engine is shut off. I was on a road trip from Pennsylvania to Maine on a weekend so there was no place to get it checked or reset. We stopped multiple times along the way and it never reset. There

2023 Subaru Crosstrek, 88,000 miles. Oil temperature warning light illuminated on October 5, 2026; dealer diagnosed CVT torque converter failure requiring replacement ($2,954 repair). This is the second CVT failure in two months: the same dealer replaced the CVT valve body in August 2026 (~$3,400) for the same warning light. Vehicle has remained parked at the dealer since the failure — driving with a failing torque converter can damage the CVT. Submitting as a transmission defect report."

Often the brakes are squishy. They require me to push almost all the way down on the brake pedal to engage. This has happened several times of the last year.

The battery and electrical system died while I was at a red light in traffic on my way to work. I was stuck on a major road with trucks and traffic behind me while I was stuck in the middle lane. I had to wait for help to be pushed out of traffic to the sidewalk and wait for a jump. The Subaru dealership confirmed this was an issue with their battery and auto stop/start system and charged me $600 to replace the battery. When it died, every light on my dashboard lit up but there was no prior warning. I no longer have this vehicle as I did not feel safe driving it anymore and I traded it in for something completely different.

Purchased vehicle 8/27/2025 within 1 day and 1 month of 2 separate class action lawsuits. Purchased from CarMax Wilmington. Car produced electrical shock to my hand first time I attempted to pair the vehicle. Parkway stated at that time I was under an additional warranty but the vehicle would require constant “updates”. This was an intentional deception to prevent me from pursuing what is required under the law, which is the replacement of head unit and subsequent by back of the vehicle when those services fail.
