2025 Subaru Outback Lane Departure Problems

Your car's forward collision avoidance system is activating unexpectedly when there are no vehicles nearby, causing the car to brake suddenly on its own — a serious safety hazard. Additionally, the lane departure warning system isn't alerting you until your car has completely crossed the center line, rather than warning you earlier. The dealership indicates this appears to be a recurring issue across multiple new Subarus.

Your car's safety systems are malfunctioning. The lane departure warning doesn't activate until you're well over the line, the collision warning goes off randomly with no vehicles nearby (creating panic and risking unwanted emergency braking on the highway), and the blind spot warning alerts you to cars that aren't there. Additionally, the EyeSight system randomly turns off completely, disabling all these safety features. The repair will likely involve recalibrating or updating the camera-based EyeSight system and its associated sensors.

Unforced acceleration occurred in a parking lot. I had my foot off the gas pedal, and had the car easing to a stop, when the car sped up rapidly and scraped the side of a large van. The car eventually came to a stop as i was applying the brake as much as i could. The passenger side of subaru was damaged extensively. I reported this to our insurance agent and lithia.

The EyeSight Assist appears to be working intermittently since the car was purchased. It stops working without any apparent reason, regardless of whether it is a sunny day, cloudy, or rainy. The assist stops working without any proper reason. The lane departure warning also appears to be either not working or malfunctioning at times. Even if I am within the lane, it still makes warning sounds at times and shows yellow lines on the screen.

There are a couple of issues. 1. The car keeps applying the brakes at lower and higher speeds even though there is literally nothing in front. This is both annoying and risky, especially at higher speeds happening at the interstates. When I asked at the dealership, they said the car is not equipped to do something like this. But that does not mean this is not happening. At lower speeds, it feels like massive pressure forced on the stomach. 2. The lane departure warning system is subpar at best. It cannot comprehend the real-world lane markers- if modified, and is constantly forcing to go through the work areas and seemingly trying to make a collision. If I were not aware and attentive, I would have crashed to the barriers on the highway. 3. The Rear Cross Traffic Warning system does not seem to capture the presence of cross traffic unless it is directly behind in most cases, specifically if the vehicle is coming from the right side of the vehicle. It is not helpful at all.
