Since we've owned the car it has gone through 3 batteries and the blind site and lane assist go on and off all the time. Windows lock. Dealership said there is nothing wrong with the car. My mother is 80 and we have kept the car in the garage most of the time unless it's a grocery trip. She has called my uncle twice this year to boost her because the car wouldn't start. We keep the car on a slow trickle charge and it doesn't make a difference. How are we suppose to sell this?

My battery dies often and doesn’t seem to hold a charge as long as a typica new car I’ve had to jump it 6 times in the last 8 months- Regarding the side marker lane assist- it has been diagnosed as a loose sensor and had been re adjusted by dealership multiple times but end up failing again a couple weeks later.

Eyesight technology warning showed inoperable along with lane departure and front end collision avoidance system. The car had been running less than 3 minutes after over 24 . Pulled over called dealer who attempted to walk me through reset. Unsuccessful no availability for service so scheduled an appointment 3 days later. Car warning lights cleared on their own. Showed advisor email from auto mess. From subaru indicating warning light was an issue. Was told code would be checked but subaru was aware of the issue when some cars were overheated. Dealership was advised to clear the code and send people on their way. No codes registered at all in the system and when I let them know that car was absolutely not overheated, I was told there was nothing that could be done because subaru knows that when cars overheat it sometimes happens. Nothing could be done but the greater concern is that their premise of when the issue is occurring is inaccurate at least in our car's case and it did not appear, due to the repetition of the company contention that overheating was the cause of the issue nor were they willing to entertain any other scenario than that which subaru already decided. Spoke with subaru of america who 7/10/17 customer service who stated not aware of any issues but would look in to it. By the end of day 7.13.17.

I was driving on the highway and heard the window crack (possibly a small pebble, but not a rock sound) and saw a crack on the drivers side window that extended to near the lane departure system. I disable the lane departure system out of caution. When I stopped I found a tiny pit likely from a small rock/pebble near the edge of the windshield. It seems like it formed a crack very easily with no noticeable impact..
