2025 Subaru Outback Backup System Problems

Vehicles eye sight and rear camera is not aligned correctly with car. it is off in direction )right to left) by about 6 inches which could easily result in a collision if driver is using lane departure and/or automated driving assistance.

The Car will not stop if another vehicle is in front of it and I don't hit on the brakes. I have taken it in for this problem more than three times and they put it on the computer and it can not find anything wrong with it. And once they reset it works until I turn it off and start it back up the system goes back to the default setting I have reached out to the dealership to let them know that It is still not working properly and the thing that has happen is that they have call me once tell me that they will look in to but as now June 12, 2025 I have heard nothing. The car is new and when I received it the car had a big squirrel nest in it which I had to take it back the next day for that and yes the car is new. I purchased it from Classic Subaru Atlanta Corp.

My 2025 Subaru Outback has two persistent defects after three repair attempts, posing safety risks and meeting Tennessee lemon law standards: 1.Fuel Economy Defect: Advertised 32 MPG highway (EPA estimate), but I average 22-27 MPG at every fill up, regardless of city or highway driving. This car has been in the shop and the dealership offered no fix. Dealer staff admitted MPG is below spec, yet claim it’s ‘normal.’ This suggests a potential engine or emissions fault, risking unexpected fuel loss on highways—a safety hazard for long drives. Not to mention false advertising to sell a car. 2.Infotainment Glitches: System updated twice since December 2024, still crashes/freezes (e.g., March 26, 2025, screen blacked out for over 5 minutes and restarted 3 times, this glitch effected my back up camera when trying to back into my driveway. intermittent failure obscures visibility . Drops phone connection while trying to map to a destination. This directly effects safety as you have to try and get the phone reconnected to resume mapping. Three repair attempts failed. This impairs safe operation, risking collisions in traffic or parking. These unresolved issues—three failed fixes per Tennessee lemon law—substantially impair safety and use. NHTSA intervention needed for potential recall.”
