2016 Subaru Forester Engine Problems

While driving my 2016 Subaru Forester about 70mph on [XXX] , the engine suddenly stalled and I was stranded on the freeway. The fuel tank was about 3/4 full and no warning light flashed in the dashboard prior to the incident. I tried to move my vehicle to the right lane but was unable because of the vehicle's loss of power.

The car caught on fire while in operation. A complete loss. It started in the engine

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 subaru forester. While driving various speeds and attempting to accelerate, the engine stalled, misfired, and hesitated without warning. The failure was persistent.

Subaru Forrester was misfiring and sputtering as if it was going to stop running. The car was shaking. Had car towed to Subaru dealer for Service.

My car has required multiple jumps and batteries, since I bought it new. I have records of the services for jumps, and new batteries. The car continues to have a parasitic battery drain, that has caused me to be stranded multiple times.

As I said earlier: car stopped dead in the middle of I-94, going 70 MPH. No reason--had 1/4 tank of gasoline, alternator working, etc. Come to find out that you all recalled 2018 Subaru Foresters for this EXACT same problem--cars stalling while driving.

[XXX] driving on [XXX] at 70 MPH car stopped running. Engine died. Pulled over.

Vehicle stalled in intersection. Car has a rough idle, this is the second time it has stalled. Dealership has looked at the car but not resolved the issue.

2016 subaru forester 2.5 premium while driving there on the highway at approximately 70mph with 80 miles left per the vehicle the car 'stalled' acting like it went to neutral and provided no response to the accelerator being pushed. *bf consumer stated happened twice more while driving approx 70 MPH and had to pull over, vehicle started shutting down. Car restarted approx 30 minutes later.

My 2016 subaru forester has twice experienced a sudden engine stall while cruising at approx. 70 MPH when the fuel was low. In both cases the low fuel warning light was not on and the vehicle showed fuel in the tank with fuel range of 70-100 miles.

Running in my 2016 subaru forester at 70 MPH on crowded interstate highway in texas and all power was lost. No warning, no warning lights, nothing...just lost all power and shot off while driving. Car rolled to a stop and then I had it towed.

Vehicle feels as though it is about to stall. This occurs sporadically when stopping or when under acceleration on the freeway. I have taken the vehicle into two separate dealerships, neither could diagnose a problem.

Today marks the third time we are taking this vehicle to the dealer because the engine stalls while driving when accelerating.

2 separate incidents of complete engine power loss while on highway at cruising speeds. Both in incidents occurred with low fuel about 1/8th tank (2-3 gallons) verified based on amount refilled to full. Fuel gauge was reading 2 bars (1/8) and low fuel light on but showing 70 miles of fuel remaining.

I have an issue where the engine will flutter in idle and will almost skip as if it's not getting any gas. The flutter causes the car to shake, it has even caused the car to stall. When it stalled I had started the car, put it in drive, tapped the gas and the engine cut out and shut off.

My sister and I bought this car on mar. On april 6, 2016 the car stalled on her twice. She was coming out of a store parking lot, and crossed the intersection turning left and the car stalled in the middle of the road in the intersection on the broken yellow lines.

The cam carrier seal was leaking oil into the car and potentially causing damage to the engine. It was a $3,806.20 repair cost.

Continuous leaking of oil even after Subaru tested and verified it's "normal."

My 2016 Subaru Forester is having acceleration and possibly fuel propulsion issues. It stays in low gear, high RPM when accelerating. This happened after a Yellowstone week long road trip from San Leandro, CA.

Engine oil and coolant were mixing. This caused coolant to drain and engine overheat. Resulted in several blown gaskets.

2nd occurrence now of a sudden and complete loss of power while on highway at 80mph with no warning (see NHTSA id# 1131777). Low fuel warning light had just come on a few minutes earlier...same as last time. Thankfully had a shoulder to cost onto and let the vehicle sit.

I have had very similar issues to the gentleman whose NHTSA # is 11161972. On three occasions when I was driving on the highway at approximately 70 miles an hour and usually going up and incline, my engine would sputter and the car would die. All three times my car screen showed that I had between 60 and 80 miles left in my tank and my fuel gauge which show two clicks to the right of empty.

I was driving down a highway going up a bridge over the mississippi river at about 65mph when a bunch of lights came on and my engine completely stopped. I could not accelerate at all and I had to switch from the left-hand lane to the right -hand lane to get onto the shoulder. This was an extremely unsafe condition.my car speed and went to 65 MPH to about 0 MPH in the matter of a minute.

With the car completely warmed up, either a hot day or a cold day, doesn't matter, the car will not accelerate for a couple seconds when entering traffic after having parked for a few minutes. In other words, after making a stop somewhere and shutting the engine off, and then starting it up again and traveling a block or so, suddenly the car will not accelerate.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 subaru forester. The contact stated that when the brake pedal was depressed, the vehicle unexpectedly surged forward. The contact stated that the engine accelerated violently.

My car accelerated on its own while I was driving slowly through a parking lot and had to slam on the brakes.

Subaru Forester 2016. Sitting at red light with foot on brake. Car lunged forward.

Context: We were driving on the freeway at ~30-40mph when the car in front suddenly braked and stopped. We hit the breaks at the same time that the automatic brakes kicked in. The car stopped, as needed.

Forester accelerates too fast on going from stop to moving to normal speed. The cars does not accelerate smoothly. Too much power on a light touch to soft acieration.

Car accelerates quickly and lurches forward when slightly touching the gas pedal. This happens at all times from start of car and during general driving conditions.

Car has 15000 miles-uses one quart of oil every 2000 miles-this much oil consumption indicates a serious problem. Car was purchased on 03/05/2016.
