2023 Subaru Forester Lane Departure Problems

Your EyeSight camera (the system that helps detect lane departures) randomly turns off and on while you're driving. This has been happening consistently over several months and appears to be an ongoing issue that was also reported on older Foresters from 2014-2021. The fix will likely involve inspecting the camera connections, cleaning the camera lens, or replacing the camera unit itself.

Your car's safety features, including blind spot warning, suddenly stopped working while driving. The dealership found an error code related to fuel vapor leaks, which can disable safety features, though your gas cap was properly secured and a smoke test found no leaks. The issue resolved after a code reset, but you experienced a similar problem again over a year later, raising concerns about an underlying defect.

I was driving on a two lane highway in the mountains and came around a small right-veering turn in the road. I straightened out the wheel to resume traveling straight, and my car’s auto-steer kicked in and pulled left into the center divider, and then right across two lanes and crashed into the side of the mountain. The auto-steer has pulled me out of lanes prior to this incident as well.
