2015 Subaru Forester Brakes Problems

On Wednesday November 10 I was arriving at Chase Bank 4229 Woodruff Ave Lakewood Ca. I was turning right into a parking stall heading due east, parking between a pickup truck to the right and a passenger car to the left. I was braking with my right foot only traveling 5 miles per hour and suddenly the car accelerated over a parking stop and into the bank building.

At about 101,000 miles I took the car in to the dealership where I bought it for another issue. When the tech got it up on his lift he came in and notified the service manager that there was bubbles on my brake line.

I was going less than ten miles per hour on city streets and tried to stop at a stoplight when my brakes failed. My foot was flooring the brake and I continued to roll into the cross walk and part of the intersection before putting my car into reverse to make it stop as it felt like the gear changed to neutral with the way I was rolling.

The contact owns a 2015 Subaru Forester. The contact stated while driving at an unknown speed, the antilock braking system (ABS), vehicle dynamic control (VDC), and the check engine warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the brake light switch needed to be replaced.

Brake switch was replaced on 10/06/18 on 2015 subaru forester. When recall came out, dealer didnt refund for the $156.01 for the replaced brake switch, but replaced it again under recall 19v149000. Symptoms are that the car would lose power to wheels while driving (engine RPM would rise) & would have to release , then depress accelerator to get it to put power to wheels again.

Similar complaints already logged. While driving at any speed warning lights for ABS, eye-sight, dynamic vehicle assitance, hill-start assistance come on. Took the vehicle to the dealership to get it checked out.

Hello, subaru needs to add forester models to its recall of 72,000 vehicles due to problems with their automatic braking system (ABS), faulty brake light switch sensors. I just had to have my subaru forester's brake light switch replaced for the 2nd time in 2 years!

Soft brake fade. Brakes fade, in particular, when vehicle is warm after driving at highway speeds, brakes sink all the way to the floor. It seems like they won't stop the vehicle.

Hill start assist braking activated when I was pulling on to a 60 MPH highway on flat ground! It continued to engage brakes & then disengage brakes as I tried to accelerate. I could not get the vehicle to accelerate beyond 25mph.

When applying the brakes (approx 40mph or less), I've had 6 occurrences where the brakes have failed. My foot is literally on the floor & the car is still moving. On the last occurence, I had to put the emergency brakes as my car was going into traffic.
