Owner Complaints (5)
My 2017 Subaru outback has moisture forming inside the passenger side headlight. Temperature does not appear to be a cause. The concern is freezing and light distortion affecting the night time auto headlight dimmer.

I have been stranded repeatedly by my subaru since it was purchased with drained batteries, no explanation from subaru. Safety issues arise from the stranding. There is a lawsuit now with subaru but they are not acutally fixing the cars?

The headlights (hid with auto-leveling) are pointed dangerously low. They do not illuminate the road ahead far enough. A driver would have very little time to react, given this limited illumination distance.

Subaru markets their high beam assist (hba) feature as working 'in conjunction with eyesight to automatically switch the headlights between the high and low settings when an oncoming vehicle is detected.' that's not entirely true and that's where the safety issue comes into play.
