Subaru Outback 2014 Steering Review #10550472

SUBARU OUTBACK 2014 car safety problem was reported on Oct 28, 2013.SUBARU OUTBACK 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with STEERING . we recently purchased a new 2014 outback. i purchased the vehicle and i noticed the steering felt a bit "off" upon driving it home but was certain it was just an alignment issue. took it to the dealer, who corrected the alignment. the car still felt off. i notice that the wheel returns to center when turning left, but the wheel will not return to center when turning right. it will mostly center, but the wheel remains off by about 15-degrees. this can cause an accident as the car will not point/track straight after a turn. also, it keeps turning any time you slightly turn the wheel to the right, but not the left. so, you can be driving on the highway and bump the steering wheel and it will continue to go right and drive off the road. this is not safe! *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 250 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):4S4BRCDC9E3. Subaru Outback 2014 problem was reported in DURHAM, NC. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

Subaru Outback 2014 Steering Review #10552064

SUBARU OUTBACK 2014 car safety problem was reported on Nov 01, 2013.SUBARU OUTBACK 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with STEERING . i received my outback on nov 1 2013 and have been having a steering lane centering issue since day one. the car will not drive in a straight line without major intervention by constant correction. the car will go left or right, but will never go straight. if i check my mirrors and blind spot for a lane change by the time i look back my car has drifted out of lane or nearly out of lane. i am not sure what is more dangerous at this point checking my blind spot or not checking my blind spot, since either can lead to an accident. i drive between 25k-50k miles a year, and have never experienced a problem like this. however, the dealer tells me this is normal and was designed by subaru to due this. i can't see how this is possible. i checked with a few other fleet outback drivers within the company, and all of them have this same issue. (four) however, not all their local dealers say it was designed to do it, but say there is no fix to the problem. i am nervous that i am going to look like a drunk driver to someone because i am consistently swerving, or this issue causes a accident. i have four kids and i can't risk having an accident. i am really not looking forward to winter this year with this problem. i am reporting this in hopes that this problem is addressed before someone dies, if they haven't already. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 15 miles.

Subaru Outback 2014 Electrical System Review #10607646

SUBARU OUTBACK 2014 car safety problem was reported on June 02, 2010.SUBARU OUTBACK 2014, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . upon inspecting the trailer hitch and wiring loom that the reno, nv, subaru dealer installed from their inventory, the wiring loom and connector which connects to a trailer's loom was found to be hanging freely in the wind. the trailer's loom runs both brake lights and tail lights. the loom was attached to the trailer hitch with a single plastic wiring tie which went thru the whole in the trailer hitch intended for the attachment of the trailer's safety chains. the plastic tie used was of the type normally used to hold a group of wires together. upon attaching the safety chains, the plastic tie which supported the wiring loom, came in contact with the metal safety chain hook. nowhere on the hitch was there any metal bracket to attach the wiring loom plug to prevent the loom from swinging in the breeze. if the plastic tie were to break or be worn thru by abrasion of the safety chain hook the wiring loom would drag of the ground and the brake and tail lights on the trailer would no longer function. the plastic tie which was the only support for the wiring loom and could not be expected to withstand the environment conditions it would be subjected to like; wind, rain, snow, mud, nor could it withstand constant abrasion from the safety chain hook. the wiring loom was attached to the safety chain bracket hole 3 or 4 inches from the plug which terminated the loom. this created a pinch point in the wiring loom where it was attached to the safety chain bracket. as the loom would swing in the wind, the copper wires would be caused to bend at the pinch point and break. normally, a pinch point is avoided by firmly attaching the plug at the end of the wiring loom. the defects mentioned above will certainly cause unexpected brake light and tail light failure. this product should be recalled..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 7000 miles.

Subaru Outback 2014 Reports


I test drove a 2011 Subaru Outback yesterday at night in a very dark area with the headlights on. I could only see out of the bottom third of the windshield. The top two thirds of the windshield looked as if a black curtain had dropped down over i

I notice if I quickly accelerate/go into overdrive - front of car will hum. Do I need to have something checked out?
Thank you!

2004 forester xt, strong gas smell in the cold weather when the heat is on. They won't fix it because they "can't find it" at my dealership. Do I need a new fuel line or is there an easier fix?

Thank you for these, can find a decent review now.

My 1998 subaru forester stutters/hiccups/bucks (whatever you call it) when going uphill, and when accelerating on a straight path, can it be the transmission?

I HAVE A SUBARU FORESTER 2000 TAIL LIGHT/PLATE LIGHT/'FRONT SIGNAL LIGHT STAYS ON.ONCE FUSE IS REMOVED LIGHT GOES OUT.WHAT COULD THE PROBLEM BE?

I own a 2008 Subaru impreza, till last week i was fine, but now it is having some problem i.e it is making whining sound from  steering pump, will i have to replace the steering pump and hoe much will it cost.

Standard on all Impreza models are anti lock disc brakes, stability control, front seat side airbags, side curtain airbags and active front head restraints to help mitigate crash-induced whiplash

2006 Subaru outback died. Will not tke a boost. With battery cable connected there is an error code in the odometer. Does anybody know what this can be?

2007 Forester bangs into gear-been doing this mainly in cold weather but now all the time. Dealer always says not problem-it has to "warm up" and doesnt want ot deal with it.
