“The key gets stuck in the ignition when the car is parked and I try to attempt to take the key out. This happens at least 4 times a week when I drive, doesn't matter how long I've driven for or anything. I put the car in park and the key doesn't come out, it usually takes 3-5 tries of turning the car back on, shifting from park to drive and back to park for me to be able to take the key out. Each time I try, I make sure that the button on the gear shift knob not still pressed down and that the knob is shifted all the way into park.”

“A crack appeared in the middle of my windshield, coming up from the bottom, after no impact, while parked at a gas pump. When parked in the sun the next day the crack grew from a linear 8 inches to a linear 18 curved from a vertical crack to a horizontal crack after the first 9 inches. Subaru apparently has windshields on back-order so the car in unable to be driven without reduced visibility for an extended amount of time until they can get a Subaru windshield to replace my mysteriously cracked one, without voiding the warranty.”

“About 50% of time when I attempt to shut down the ignition and remove the key the key won't turn all the way to off . I can't remove the key an must turn it back to the run position and try to get the key to turn to the off position. The vehicle is in the stationary position with the transmission lever in park . I follow the operator's manual instruction to push in the key when turning it to off ; I've also tried not pushing the key in when trying to turn it to the off position to no avail. My Subaru dealer service manager said that this problem is not known to him. Cause unknown.”
