2018 Subaru Outback Cruise Control Problems

I slowed down to approximately 5 MPH to pull into a parking space in front of a building. Without warning, the car suddenly accelerated toward the building. The car jumped over the parking block and onto the sidewalk in front of the building.

The contact owns a 2018 Subaru Outback. The contact stated that while their wife was pulling into a parking space, uphill, when the vehicle suddenly accelerated. The vehicle jumped the curb and crashed into a sign.

Driver experienced an unexpected uncommanded sudden acceleration upon application of the braking system in the driveway, which caused a collision with the garage/house. The safety of the driver and other were put at risk. Significant damage to the house/garage occurred.

Car jerked back and suddenly accelerated without warning as driver had foot on brake and was slowly pulling into parking spot. Car hit wall of parking garage causing front end damage. Parking collision warning did not sound at any point.

The vehicle, a 2018 Subaru Outback Limited 3.6R, was being pulled into the garage at the owner’s home. With brakes applied, and while putting vehicle into park, the vehicle suddenly accelerated forward making contact with a suspended shelf attached to the back wall of the garage.

The car windshield suddenly cracked on its own without any external or internal impact while parked. The crack started from the top on passenger side and extended vertically to the middle of the windshield.

I was driving in a 4 lane (two on each direction) parkway toward a red stoplight with one car stopped at my lane at the light, I was coasting, slowing down toward the car. When I was about 30 ft away the light changed, the car in front started driving and I applied the accelerator.

I pressed on the brake to stop at a red light and felt the car accelerate which caused me to have a panic attack, I quickly released the pedal before reapplying pressure and it self corrected lucky just before light. This has happen before but I erroneously believed that it must have been my fault, this time I was 100% sure it was my brakes.

On september 19, 2018 I was driving my subaru outback through big bend national park. I was leaving the chisos mountains basin within the park when it began lightly raining. I pressed the x-mode button hoping it would increase my traction on the winding roads.

In heavy traffic, we were rolling slowly along, when all of a sudden the engine began revving on its own, against the brake. I quickly moved the shifter into neutral, and the engine revved wildly without my pressing on the accelerator. We couls have easily slammed into the car in front of us had I not moved the selector to neutral.

When I was idling in park, the car spontaneously accelerated at full throttle. Another incident occurred while braking the car started accelerating at full throttle, even though I was sitting still at a drive through. - it would not stop without turning off the ignition.

The acceleration response is decoupled from the throttle. I had come to a complete stop at a stop sign. I tried to move ahead with a slight acceleration to get a view of cross traffic, unfortunately the vehicle accelerated too high and t boned into another car that was going across.

Using eye-sight controls the automatic stopping distance is set too stop too close to the car in front. Varies in stopping distance ,cannot depend on the system therefor can not use the system.

After using 'x-mode' the car began to accelerate on its own without engaging the gas pedal. It continued even after turning the car off and restarting it. I then pulled over and came to a complete stop, shifted to neutral, and it again accelerated from 0-40 MPH before it started to decelerate on its own.
