Your 2024 Subaru Forester's rear hatch failed to stop or reverse when it struck your head while closing. The hatch should automatically detect obstructions and stop, but it didn't, causing you injury. You've contacted both the dealer and Subaru corporate about this safety concern. The fix will likely involve inspecting and possibly replacing the hatch's obstruction detection sensor or control module.
