SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Mar 14, 2014.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . this vehicle is a forester xt turbo. i was operating on cruise control at 78 mph, approximately 900 miles from home, when a sudden loss of propulsion occurred. dashboard had multiple warning lights. engine was still operating, though at very low rpm so i was able to maintain steering and braking control. after maneuvering to the side of the road, i noticed the tachometer was fluctuating between 500-800 rpm. i turned off the engine and was able to restart. the following warning lights were still illuminated: check engine, hill control, cruise control, and operating mode. operating mode was stuck in "sport" mode. i was able to drive vehicle at normal speed to nearest dealer approximately 10 miles away. the service technician stated i had an error code of p0606. this is a voltage issue on the engine control module, (ecm). the corrective action is to re-flash the ecm computer chip. this is a restricted action, requiring a field service engineer to come to the dealer to do the procedure. the technician stated they had already experienced this with a vehicle they sold but the problem with the module usually occurs on engine start. the technician cleared the error codes and i continued on my trip. upon returning to my home, i took the vehicle to my dealer to be serviced. my dealer stated they were one of the first to experience this issue. i am wondering why there has been no recall/notice to owners of this problem since it has been known for a while. it is frightening to lose power when cruising at highway speed. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 7700 miles.

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Dec 23, 2013.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with STEERING . subaru corporate recently purchased my 2014 forester back under the lemon law. this was after i had 4 documented incidents of the vehicle veering sporadically out of control around 55 mph. it was inconsistent but the mechanic was able to determine that something was pulling it out of alignment/after this happened it was always out of spec. it was quite dramatic. as in the entire back-end would start to pull out of control. this often happened within icier conditions. while subaru corporate was responsive in getting me a new subaru, i do not feel they at all acknowledged or took my complaint serious. they kept referencing my inconvenience with an alignment issue. if it was as simple as an alignment issue, they could have fixed it the first time. my concern is that others are having this same issue but since it is difficult to replicate and extremely inconsistent, it'd be easy to not acknowledge the seriousness of this issue. since mentioning my frustration to random acquaintances, two individuals have contacted me for additional information because they are having a comparable problem with their forester and/or cross trek. i sent a lengthy description about my safety concerns to subaru corporate which they ignored. perhaps that is an appropriate response but i want to make sure that somebody is looking into this/making sure it is not a more serious issue. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 6500 miles.

Subaru Forester 2014 Traction Control System Review #10585358

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Nov 28, 2013.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM . this incident is nearly identical to an earlier complaint: nhtsa id number 10574697. i was travelling on a straight portion of interstate at reduced highway speed due to cold weather and light snow when i began to experience a wiggling sensation in the rear end of the vehicle. like described in the earlier complaint it felt like the rear end wanted to step out, first one way and then the other, repeating rapidly. i could see from the reactions of drivers behind me they were giving me a wide berth and could tell something was visibly happening with my vehicle. the front end did not appear to be affected nor was the ability to steer the vehicle. once i decelerated to 45-50 the wiggling abated. it was snowing at the time but there was no more than a trace on the roadway. no other vehicles around me seemed to be having any difficulties with traction and most were traveling at full highway speed (70). my ability to steer and brake, even moderately, wasn't affected as i could slow immediately and change lanes and the front end did not skid. i travelled at no faster than 50 mph for about another 5 miles at which time i slowly accelerated and waited for the wigging to resume but it did not. i was able to complete my journey (another 40 miles) without further incident. i'm very experienced in winter driving but this is my first time with an awd vehicle. i have never experienced anything like this in my life and it was quite unnerving. i don't know if the vehicle was indeed stepping out due to slippery road conditions (although nobody else seemed to be having any difficulty) and the awd system was correcting (or overcorrecting?) as designed and that was the wiggling i felt. it's not occurred again . . . but i've been careful to avoid similar weather conditions (defeats the purpose of owning a subaru) and have not experienced it in dry weather. *js.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 11200 miles.

Subaru Forester 2014 Vehicle Speed Control Review #10588656

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on May 03, 2014.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . after a routine periodic maintenance that was reported to include a software update (unrelated?), intermittent events with uneven and briefly absent acceleration occurred when attempting to increase vehicle speed from slow speeds or from a stopped condition when depressing the throttle. no indicator lights were present on the dash of an electronic control problem or any unsafe condition. after initially denying the problem the dealer was able to replicate it. electronic data was reported to be collected on the event and examined by subaru. subaru america is reported to have suggested checking the knock sensor connection. dealer reported "tightening" the connection. no parts listed as replaced, no reason for "loosening" given (at 11500 miles), no reason given for "intermittent" performance, no reason given for lack of indication/dash light for a presumed uncertain state in a sensor controlling acceleration/fuel ignition. i guess the dealer and subaru america know their product best - and this issue is resolved - but i am surprised that an intermittent connection to a sensor impacting acceleration would not result in a dash indicator or code. also, since no reason for the "disconnection" was given - and no parts were replaced - i can only assume that a factory assembly defect occurred (manifest just after a software change?). in any case, subaru america indicates this problem is resolved. no accident occurred, but since the performance issue was associated with acceleration control, it deserves to be noted. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 11500 miles.

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on July 01, 2014.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . i purchased my 2014 forester in july 2013. i love the vehicle except for the design of the climate control dials which i consider to be a safety hazard because it is so difficult to ascertain at a glance what the current setting is for each function (heat/ac temp, fan speed, fan direction.) staring at the dial(s) or repeated glances takes the driver's attention off the road for too long, and therefore is absolutely a safety issue: each round dial has a rubber grip surface that the user contacts. on the front face of the dial is a shiny chrome bezel ring. this ring is quite narrow and has 7 small, equidistant indentations around the radius. one of the indentations is yellow plastic, which indicates the setting. at a glance, the small yellow plastic indicator is very difficult to locate among the other six indentations. what the purpose is of the indentations is a mystery (some marketer wanted sparkle?) and why subaru chose pale yellow against shiny chrome makes no sense. i have successfully altered my dials by putting a tiny drop of white fingernail polish on the black rubber grip directly above each yellow plastic indicator. now, at a quick glance, i can easily see at what position each function dial is set. it's great. i feel much safer. i know this sounds like a small, unimportant problem, but it was a huge concern to me. i hope no forester owner is involved in a crash because he/she took his/her eyes off the road for too long trying to figure out one or more of the climate control settings. the forester might be a "top safety pick" but not on this. thank you..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JF2SJACC7EG.

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Apr 14, 2014.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with ENGINE . i bought my brand new subaru forester 2014 in august, 2013. after my first oil change i noticed the engine was overfilled with 1 - 2 quart oil. i spoke with the service agent at the same dealership and he was trying to convince me that was the appropriate amount. on my second oil change i clearly asked them if there is any oil consumption problem with my engine and if this is the reason for overfill . the answer was no problem with oil consumption. i made a complain for this oil consumption to subaru usa. their answer was that this is a normal oil consumption. on my third oil change i couldn't make even 3000mi.without adding extra quarter +the extra one i had from the dealer. to be fare i don't see any smoke from the exhaust, but i'm sure that's going to cost me emission problems in the future. according to the 2014 subaru forester manual - 1 quart for 1200 miles is considered normal oil consumption.. today the vehicle is over 12 000mi. and i'm constantly adding oil and paying out of my pocket and wondering how this is going to end. after short research i realized i'm not alone. if i knew for this problem earlier i'd never buy this expensive subaru forester..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 9300 miles.

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Sept 15, 2014.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with ENGINE . in october of 2013, i purchased by way of lease, a brand new 2014 subaru forester. right after purchasing a 2014 subaru forester i began to have issues with the oil consumption in my vehicle. in example, before my first oil change of 3,000 miles, i had to have my car assessed by the oil technicians as the oil light kept coming on. the oil technicians would “top” off my fluids and along i went. sadly, after having my 3,000 mile oil change, i continued to have issues with oil consumption. i think i paid a visit to the oil technicians at least once every 6 weeks or so; so much so that the oil technicians were tired of seeing my vehicle. i practically developed a personal relationship with the oil technicians. if they did not know me by name, they were at least familiar with my vehicle. to make a long story longer, this month (september) or better stated less than a year of having a 2014 in my possession, while still being in the year 2014 with 3 months left to go in this year, i had some major work done to my vehicle. up to and including a replacement of the engine. please see the attached invoice to see all the items that were replaced. now you are problem asking well how many miles are on the car? there are only 7,600 miles on the vehicle. in other words i put maybe 760 miles on my vehicle per month in less than a year.opportunity: clearly, i was sold a high priced lemon; a dud. in order to improve on customer satisfaction, it is in my opinion that subaru should provide me with a 2014 subaru forester that is not defective or one that does not have design flaws. no vehicle with less than 8,000 miles and less than a year old should require an engine replacement. please be advised that after the work was done now the car has a vibration and feels as if it is going to shut off. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 7600 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JF2SJAAC7EG. Subaru Forester 2014 problem was reported in DENVER, CO. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

Subaru Forester 2014 Equipment Adaptive Review #10659181

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Feb 01, 2014.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE . the eyesight, adaptive cruise control and pre-collision braking systems do not recognize stopped vehicles - hard braking is required to stop vehicle in time. when systems do function they do not gradually slow vehicle and come to a stop, but do so suddenly and dangerously, causing me to brake hard to come to a stop at a safe distance behind stopped vehicle. same systems are also dangerously affected by bright sunlight and fail to function without warning. dealer said they checked systems out and found nothing wrong. gave me print-out from operating manual stating it is the responsibility of the driver to operate the vehicle safely at all times and that the eyesight system is never a substitute for active driver involvement and may not operate optimally under all driving conditions!!!!!!! subaru corporate customer relations representative said there was no software upgrade/fix available for the forester model. certain subaru 2015 models are advertised to have an upgraded eyesight system that recognizes lighted taillights, among other improvements. i was told the 2015 system was not available for the 2014 forester. thank you in advance for your attention to this matter. a response to my complaint would be greatly appreciated..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 5000 miles.

Subaru Forester 2014 Vehicle Speed Control Review #10663427

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Sept 16, 2013.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . within a few days of having the car, i noted that it did not move forward smoothly from a dead stop but surged ahead. i had not depressed the gas pedal very far. there after i am very careful to depress the gas pedal very carefully until the engine responds smoothly to a normal speed. i never had this happen in any other car i have owned and i noted after reading the complaints of other owners that others have the same problem. i have not reported it to the dealer because it was not a big issue but now i wonder if this could eventually become a dangerous problem as the car gets older. i also noted a complaint by another person, about the lines on the climate control knob that are difficult to see which she solved by marking them with white nail polish. perhaps subaru designers will hear about this and have those lines painted a color that is easier to see then the yellow they are using . also i would like to see on the dash board something that tells one what position the lights are in, running? night time? or high beam? as the lever is shielded by the steering wheel. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 98 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JF2SJAEC1EH. Subaru Forester 2014 problem was reported in RED HOOK, NY. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

SUBARU FORESTER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Jan 08, 2015.SUBARU FORESTER 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with ENGINE . attempted to start the car on a cold morning. battery had good charge, but car would not immediately start as normal. after several attempts i placed a battery booster inline with the battery, again after several more attempts nothing but a few spurts.. this happened over a 20 minute period. at no point was there not enough cranking voltage or amperage. weather conditions were cold -10, but mind you no colder then the 2013 winter in which many many mornings and days when the polar vortex was upon us did the car ever fail to start. this is a 2014 turbo xt model, in general turbos are hard atarters, as i recently owned a 2009 acura rdx turbo, but again never had starting issues with that car. i spoke to my dealer , but he offered little help, also callled and contacted subaru of america, who tried to write of off as a bad battery, but as i mentioned plenty of crank, to dtc's error, nothing , just hard hard to start.. this car has a proven history of starting in colder weather. the car has experienced rough idles on an off, but i believe there is a tsb for this. what is important to note is the car under the conditions should have started first few cranks, not over a dozen attempts in a 20 minute period..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 21677 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JF2SJGMC6EH. Subaru Forester 2014 problem was reported in ALTAMONT, NY. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.
