2019 Subaru outback with 55,000 miles has a head gasket leaking 3 months over the warranty. But within the mileage. Also the steering column manual lever adjustment collapses intermittently causing severe safety issues and/or an accident.

2019 Subaru outback many issues bought the car for safety for my newborn child in 2019. Has had multiple issues windshield keeps cracking. The steering column manual lever keeps collapsing causing unreliable steering and safety issues could possibly cause injury/death due to accident.

I bought the 2019 Subaru Outback less than 2 months ago. While driving either on the street or on the freeway at reasonable speeds, the car will suddenly without warning veer to the left or right causing me to believe I was about to lose control. At first I thought I hit a pothole or some other road hazard.

Steering wobbles veers in and out of lane at random! Best way to describe it is that it feels like 'engaging and disengaging' feels like I am losing control while driving! Needs a total recall.

Beginning in march of 2019, I began noticing that the steering felt "wobbly" above 40 MPH, as if the car hit a patch of ice or was struck by a sudden gust of wind. Driving feels very unsafe. This is our third subaru outback, going back to 1998, so we are familiar with driving this car (or at least older model years).

Took in 2 yr old car relating to vehicle veering to the right, ticking helicopter noise on driver side. Took to Continental Subaru Anchorage Alaska on 11/2/22. For tire change over, alignment, oil change and for diagnostics on noise.

I requested many times to have our car checked for nhsta campaign : 19v493000. The dealership said our car was not included in that case. Our lane assist was too aggressive from the first day we drove the car.

Car will lane correct when it's not needed. And all warning lights will come on in car when it's very hot. Cannot access touchscreen - because it constantly glitches as if it's being touched passenger side window continues to roll up and down when you click auto control on window and will not stop. I am afraid to drive because of these Electrical issues.

To the CA Automotive Repair Bureau, [XXX] complaint, In 2022, I bought a new Outback at Albany Subaru. In October 2024, my car has 33,000 miles and I've had all of my 3,000-mile oil changes, inspections, and Warranty repairs done by Albany Subaru. I pay $100 for each repair that's covered under Subaru's extended Warranty. In 2023, the car's Dashboard Computer/Radio Head Unit was repaired, I drove the car for a few days, but the Head Unit was defective, so Subaru changed the Head Unit. This cost me (3) three trips to Subaru, which is 7.8 miles from my home, UBER costs, and three $100 Warranty payments. I'm a small business owner and had to pay employees extra to remain at work so I could drop off and pick up my car. Most times Subaru didn't give me a loaner car. Weeks later, I was driving up a hill and could not correctly steer my car, I thought I might crash, so I stopped driving my new car. I only drive on paved roads and I bought my Subaru because of Subaru's quality and safety reputation. I returned my car to Albany Subaru. My car's Steering or front end seemed loose and not right. Subaru told me I needed an alignment. I paid for an alignment. I drove my car home, but again, the Steering didn’t seem right, it was still loose and shaking. A day later, I returned my car to Subaru and they readjusted and tightened the Steering Box. Subaru called me at home and stated I needed an oil change, an alignment, and (4) four new tires, and brakes, which I agreed to the oil change. The next day, I picked the car up and spoke to the Service Managers about my concerns with the new car Steering, and stated to them that Subaru Bloggers are sharing that there should be a Recall on Subaru Steering Columns and other repair issues that could result in Lemon Law Lawsuits against Subaru. The Service Manager Nikki Ali and a Mechanic stated that Subaru has Steering Column issues but that Subaru has not yet issued a National Recall, but may replace Steering Columns.

I went to reverse, then drive and Left turn into a parking spot inside a small flattop parking lot. My car made a popping noise and grating sounds after the reverse and turning of the steering wheel. I turned off my car once in the spot and looked under the car is it sounded like something was grating against the ground.

There is a problem with my 2019 steering since I bought it in 2020. When driving with highway speeds, over 45 MPH I am struggling to keep the car straight on the road and have to compensate steering all the time. The car feels unattached to the road like driving on icy road or having strong side wind gusts.

The contact owns a 2019 Subaru Outback. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel would erroneously turn to either the right or left causing the vehicle to pull in either direction. The contact indicated that the failure was intermittent.

Unknown, but seems like steering is affected. When turning the vehicle over and bump there is a clanking that you can hear and feel coming from under the bottom of the vehicle. It was present about 3 months after purchase of the car new, and has progressively gotten worse.

The contact owns a 2019 Subaru Outback. The contact stated that while driving at 40-50 MPH, the steering wheel felt loose, causing the vehicle to drift from the lane. There were no warning lights illuminated.

The contact owns a 2019 Subaru Outback. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel would tighten and oversteer while switching lanes without warning. The contact stated that excessive force was needed to regain complete control of the vehicle after the failure.

Under the following three conditions the front tires appear to become airborne and the tires skip making the vehicle seem to be out-of-control; When traveling at speeds >35 MPH, Wheels are turned >10 degrees, Any long bump (such as a rough transition "bump" from asphalt to concrete). This has been worsening over the last year and is now unsafe for my children to be in the car.

Car will pull to the left or right without warning. Whenever you are driving at any speed. Especially when you have a low spot in the road or slightly uneven pavement.

Tl* the contact owns a 2019 subaru outback. The contact stated that at 40 MPH or above, the vehicle was difficult to steer due to the loss of power steering assist. The contact stated that the vehicle veered independently from lane to lane which made the vehicle unsafe to drive.

Driving on city streets - car steering wheel pulls to right without warning - feeling of losing control of car by driver - also pulls to the left when changing lanes to the left -- speed 40 to 50 miles an hour - feels like steering wheel is "loose" or has come loose.

The windshield of my 2019 subaru outback spontaneously cracked. I was driving down a highway at about 50 MPH, with no one in front of me or coming the other way. The windshield was not hit by road debris or anything of the sort.

I have noticed that when driving above 40 MPH the steering seems to "slip" and pull the car to the right. At that time the steering wheel has additional play making an immediate correction impossible. Highways have been clear however I am concerned what will happen when roads are slick w inclement weather.

Purchased vehicle in march 2019, since owning vehicle my miles per gallon has been off ranging from 6 miles to 99 miles per gallon and the subaru dealer doesn't know what the issue is. Also, while applying the brakes, you have to apply the pedal all the way down to stop. The vehicle has a soft pedal and a burnt smell in the engine.

Car has less than 400 miles on. When driving at highway speeds it feels like I do not have any control, no feedback from a steering wheel. It feels like driving on ice.

I took delivery of this new vehicle on 10 september 2018 after short test drive on urban streets. By the time I had driven on about 100 miles on rural and 4 lane roads I was really disturbed by the way the vehicle "wandered" from side to side and seemingly without any steering wheel input except enough to correct the drift to right or left.

Feel very uncomfortable during driving, steering wheel moving left or right

Vehicle steering is dangerous...vehicle suddenly lunged hard right then hard left ...all while in motion on the road about 35 MPH...was very perplexed and I'm scared to drive the vehicle now...after googling make & model recalls earlier years had steering issues recalled...perhaps this is the case for this vehicle? Too dangerous to drive...

Engine does not brake when going downhill as the manual says it should. My previous outbacks (2006, 2011, 2017) did have engine braking. Regional service office suggested I place the car in cruise control in order to control the speed.

When driving on highway from 40-70 MPH, and making a turn to right or left, the steering will suddenly over steer towards the direction of the turn, giving a feeling of loss of connection between steering wheel and the car's wheels. Feels like too much play in steering wheel. Have to over correct the other direction to get steering feel and correct direction for the car back.

On freeway - traffic moving at about 45 MPH on corner - the car veered sharply towards the freeway inside wall. No control of steering when I tried to gently correct - when the car finally responded it veered sharply I tot he lanes to my right. The steering was out of my control.

The steering seems to float. You lose road feel and the steering seems to catch. There is also a single beep heard when this occurs.

Based upon the subaru review in the consumer reports april auto issue, I purchased a 2019 outback. There is a problem with the steering. It has about thirty degrees of play.

Above 50-60 miles an hour the steering began to wander (it felt like I had no control and the car wanted to steer itself) very dangerous! On an interstate where speed limit was 70mph.

Loose control of the steering wheel when driving faster than 50 MPH on highway, or turning on curves. The steering wheel tends to wander that the driver does not have the control of the steering wheel. The driver feels unsafe.

Steering unexpectedly nudges you to one side. Car seems to take control temporarily from the driver and makes a correction to the left or the right.
